Description: Sensory responses of the brain are known to be highly variable, but the origin and functional relevance of this variability
have long remained enigmatic. Using the variable foreperiod of a visual discrimination task to assess variability in the
primate cerebral cortex, we report that visual evoked response variability is not only tied to variability in ongoing cortical
activity, but also… more
