Pupil fluctuations track rapid changes in adrenergic and cholinergic activity in cortex
In addition to light intensity, changes in pupil diameter are correlated with mental effort, attention and levels of arousal. Reimer et al. report that across behavioural states, fluctuations in pupil diameter are highly correlated with activity of noradrenergic and cholinergic projection neurons.
