Dissociation of tic generation from tic expression during the sleep-wake cycle
iScience, 2021 Summary: Motor tics, the hallmark of Tourette syndrome (TS), are modulated by different behavioral and environmental factors. A major modulating factor is the sleep-wake cycle in which tics are attenuated to a large extent during sleep.

Dopamine-mediated striatal activity and function is enhanced in GlyRα2 knockout animals
iScience, 2023 Summary: The glycine receptor alpha 2 (GlyRα2) is a ligand-gated ion channel which upon activation induces a chloride conductance. Here, we investigated the role of GlyRα2 in dopamine-stimulated striatal cell activity and behavior. We show that depletion

Countermanding Perceptual Decision-Making
iScience, 2020 Summary: We investigated whether a task requiring concurrent perceptual decision-making and response control can be performed concurrently, whether evidence accumulation and response control are accomplished by the same neurons, and whether perceptual ...

Convergence of location, direction, and theta in the rat anteroventral thalamic nucleus
iScience, 2023 Summary: The thalamus and cortex are anatomically interconnected, with the thalamus providing integral information for cortical functions. The anteroventral thalamic nucleus (AV) is reciprocally connected to retrosplenial cortex (RSC).
