Fig. 3: Correlation of M1–M2 cross-area activity is stable across behaviors.

From: Single-trial cross-area neural population dynamics during long-term skill learning

Fig. 3

a Correlation between M2 and M1 components of the M2–M1 cross-area population activity during (Left) spontaneous behavior, (Middle) early exploratory reaches, and (Right) late directed reaches. Spontaneous behavior was during the late learning day. Each data point is M2 and M1 data from a single 100 ms bin (n = 4 rats). b Quantification of (a) as crossvalidated R2 values. Bars show mean ± SEM, open circles show data from individual animals (n = 4 rats). Correlation is not significantly different during spontaneous behavior, early reaches, and late reaches. Mixed-effect model, two-sided t-test, not adjusted for multiple comparisons.
