* Developmental studies-- fetal monkey ODCs.
|

* Rodent barrels (early anatomical emergence from TC input, functional/physiological emergence?). * What is known about columns/domains in secondary/association/non-primary sensory representations? Rest of rodent S1 (non-barrel cortex?).
|

* Calcium domains of Yuste, Science 1992 paper.
|

* Other slice calcium recordings, patch/gap junctions. In vivo physiology? (Not too many multisite electrode recordings in cortex, spatial resolution issue).
|

* Calcium imaging-- Konnerth 'waves' in Ent cortex. For visual cortex, domains activity in extrastriate cortex (Ackman Nature 2012). But S1-- Golshani work in later postnatal-- but activity not obeying domains in barrel cortex-- problem with spatial sampling in the xy and the z for this study?

## Cortical domain activity is state dependent ##
|
||||
|
||||
* Previously demonstrated that general anesthesia abolishes spontaneous activity in visual system (Ackman Nature 2012).
|
||||
* What about ongoing activity in other cortical areas during early brain development? Surgical procedure relevance.
|
||||
* No population calcium activity found during gen'l anesthesia, only slow traveling waves.
|
||||
* During anesthesia induction, rapid (<30 s) knock down of discrete domain activity (P3 mouse <120518_09.tif>). Cingulate, retrosplenial activations the last to go-- default mode/resting state network areas last.

Conclusions: The two hemispheres seem to be mostly synchronized, though it’s possible the R hemispshere (which is also the slightly more ‘active’ hemisphere, see stats table below) leads the left by a bit. The asymmetric peak at –150–175frames is interesting. That would be about 30–35 sec.
|
||||
|
||||
The big secondary peaks around ±30 sec is present in both autocorrs and xcorrs and is far above the random normal xcorr baseline (blue trace). In fact there is a periodicity seen in the autocorrs and the xcorrs where there is a dampening oscillation about on this interval! (See ideal dampening frequency in random sine wave example above). This corresponds to a 1/30sec == 0.033 Hz ultra-slow oscillation.
|
||||
|
||||
Looking at the above plot showing lags from [–1000, 1000] frames which is ± 200 s, we can see about 5.5 cycles of this underlying dampening oscillation in both autocorr plots. This corresponds to (1000fr*0.2sec/fr)/5.5 => 36.36 sec/cycle => 0.0275 cycles/sec or ~0.03 Hz

**Conclusions:** So the activity in both hemispheres at postnatal day 3 (P3) clearly exhibits significant spatial correlations in both in the medial-lateral and anterior-extent. This is consistent with and complementary to the fact that the active pixel fraction in each hemisphere exhibits a strong temporal correlation as I found earlier in this report [Temporal correlation of activity][]. The medial-lateral positional correlation is stronger than the anterior-posterior (higher *R* and lower *p* value). The total number of coactive frames is `numel(y1(~isnan(y1)&~isnan(y2)))` == **1114 frames**. This is accounts to **37.13%** of the movie or **222.8 s**. Cortex.L had 1635 actvFrames and cortex.R had 1677 actvFrames which means that each hemisphere was coactive with the other hemisphere 1114/1635 == **68.13%** and 1114/1677 == **66.43%** of the active time respectively.
