Electrical Synapses: Rectification Demystified [PDF]
Current Biology, 2009 Some electrical synapses rectify - they pass current preferentially in one direction. A new study argues that rectifying junctions result when the two sides of the junction contribute hemichannels with different properties to the gap junction.

Selectivity to approaching motion in retinal inputs to the dorsal visual pathway
eLife, 2020 To efficiently navigate through the environment and avoid potential threats, an animal must quickly detect the motion of approaching objects. Current models of primate vision place the origins of this complex computation in the visual cortex.
