A key question that remains unclear in Developmental Neuroscience is to understand how thalamic spontaneous activity contributes to the emergence and plasticity of cortical sensory maps. Spontaneous neural activity during development plays an important role in the establishment of thalamocortical circuitry in sensory areas before sensory onset. It is thought that the cortical activity at perinatal stages strengthens synaptic connections that will define sensory maps. Spontaneous activity in the developing cortex has been well characterized: it starts as highly correlated patches of active neurons that, after the first postnatal week in mice, switches to a sparser and decorrelated neuronal firing that allows an efficient neuronal coding.
