Cholinergic modulation of cortical function: A hypothetical role in shifting the dynamics in cortical network

Wide innervation of cholinergic projections throughout the cortex implies that acetylcholine (ACh) plays an essential role in information processing, but how it works is still enigmatic. Experimental as well as theoretical work in the olfactory cortex and hippocampus suggests that ACh, via the musca...
