The functional organization of the barrel cortex. (2007, background): “Action-potential firing and membrane-potential oscillations in the barrel cortex phase locked to the whisking cycle could contribute to encoding the position of whisker object touch (Fee et al., 1997; Szwed et al., 2003; Crochet and Petersen, 2006; Kleinfeld et al., 2006).”
