Temporally Precise Cell-Specific Coherence Develops in Corticostriatal Networks during Learning

Neuroscience

Koralek et al show learning-related increases in oscillatory coherence between the motor cortex and striatum during learning.  The increase in coherence was seen for neurons related to behavior.  This supports the notion that oscillatory coherence plays a role in forming functional networks.
