Reducing Merkel cell activity in the whisker follicle disrupts cortical encoding of whisker movement amplitude and velocity

Merkel cells (MCs) and associated primary sensory afferents of the whisker follicle-sinus complex, accurately code whisker self-movement, angle, and whisk phase during whisking. However, little is known about their roles played in cortical encoding of whisker movement. To this end, the spiking activ...
