We showed a long time ago that the frequency organization of the auditory cortex on the single cell level is pretty messy. But does it mean that all functional connections are random or unorganized? Peter did careful 2-photon imaging and in collaboration with Sahar and Anuthhara from the Babadi lab shows that even though the frequency preference of neighboring neurons in A1 is functionally diverse, the functional connection patterns are functionally precise and harmonically related.
