Heatmaps

Caption

These heatmaps show activity in 756 neurons found in the BLA region of a mouse brain. Spikes in excitement (red) represent responses over time to neutral sounds (c & d), a water reward (e), or a startling puff of air. Maps like these also show how the brain inhibits (blue) an undesired reaction. Black represents moments of non-responsiveness.
