The second session of the Barrels II Workshop focused on the function of cortical circuitry in the rodent vibrissa-to-barrel system. The session began with talks by Asaf Keller (University of Maryland), Christopher Moore (MIT), and David Pinto (Brown University). These presentations were followed by shorter talks by Mark Andermann (MIT), Alison Barth (Carnegie-Mellon University), Dirk Feldmeyer (Max Planck Institute), Cathy Garabedian (UCSF), Garrett Stanley (Harvard University), and Simona Temereanca (University of Pittsburgh). Presentations covered several central themes, including the functional organization of cortical circuitry, thalamocortical response transformations, temporal response properties, and the role of vibrissa resonance in high frequency representations. For simplicity, this review is organized by these central themes and does not follow the order of presentations at the meeting.

The effects of variations in extent of movement on fractionated reaction times (RTs) were studied in 18 male Ss. The means of total RT, premotor RT and motor RT (Weiss, 1965) did not change significantly under the two treatment conditions involving variations in extent of elbow flexion in response to a visual stimulus. These results supported earlier work of Brown and Slater-Hammel (1949), but apparently conflicted with recent data reported by Williams (1971). A differential effect of practice on the two tasks was identified and postulated as a possible factor contributing to the conflict among previous research findings.
