Circuits in the Ventral Medulla That Phase-Lock Motoneurons for Coordinated Sniffing and Whisking
The exploratory behavior of rodents is characterized by stereotypical movements of the vibrissae, nose, and head, which are phase locked with rapid respiration, that is, sniffing. Here we review the brainstem circuitry that coordinates these actions and propose that respiration may act as a master c...
