“…The study of correlated neural activity in developing mammalian cortex is currently characterized by a variety of patterns, described in a range of preparations, including cortical slices (Garaschuk et al, 2000;Corlew et al, 2004;Sun and Luhmann, 2007;Allene and Cossart, 2010) and the in vivo intact brain (Khazipov et al, 2004;Adelsberger et al, 2005;Marcano-Reik and Blumberg, 2008;Golshani et al, 2009;Seelke and Blumberg, 2010;Minlebaev et al, 2011). Most relevant to our results are patterns of activity described in vivo.…”
