Abstract
Behaviors arise from the flow of neural activity through the brain. MacDowell and Buschman show cortex-wide neural activity, in mice, can be explained by a set of 14 motifs, each capturing a unique spatiotemporal pattern of neural activity. Motifs generalized across animals and behaviors, suggesting that they capture core patterns of cortical activity.
