Attention and running influence individual brain cells independently

Neuroscientists have explored how individual neurons in mice are influenced by two different cognitive and behavioral states -- attention and running. These two states were once thought to share a common mechanism. However, in a new study published today in Neuron, researchers found that spatial attention and running influence individual neurons independently with different dynamics.
