I just learned that the first author, Susan M. Courtney, recently passed. How sad.

Our lab has been in this space for nearly 20 years. I helped design the space when the building was being constructed. Yet, I learned just now that there is a light under the kitchen cabinet.

You can identify the middle (input) layer of the cortex by locating the crossover between gamma and alpha/beta power. It's common in the cortex and likely has significant functional relevance.
