Specifically, we show that optimal stimulus discriminability is achieved near a transition between a multi-attractor phase with metastable cluster dynamics (low arousal) and a single-attractor phase (high arousal).

Changes in an animal's behavioral state, such as arousal and movements, induce {complex modulations of the baseline input currents to sensory areas, eliciting sensory modality-specific effects.

Naturalistic animal behavior exhibits a strikingly complex organization in the temporal domain, whose variability stems from at least three sources: hierarchical, contextual, and stochastic.

Our results establish a novel theory of cell-type specific perturbations, applicable to top-down modulation as well as optogenetic and pharmacological manipulations.
