The mouse cortex is a complex structure segmented into distinct regions, each specialized in processing sensory information, motor planning, execution etc. These functional modules are highly interconnected and work together to allow the animal to interact with its environment and drive behavior. Different behavioral contexts can significantly influence how these cortical regions process information and interact with each other. For instance, during locomotion, areas linked to motor control are activated to fine-tune limb positions due to obstacles in the environment, while sensory areas such as the visual cortex prioritize processing features that are more salient during locomotion (Schneider 2020). Understanding the dynamic interplay between cortical areas and behavior is crucial to comprehending how the brain processes sensory information and drives behavior.
