Rabies virus-based labeling of layer 6 corticothalamic neurons for two-photon imaging in vivo
iScience, 2023 Summary: Neocortical layer 6 (L6) is less understood than other more superficial layers, largely owing to limitations of performing high-resolution investigations in vivo.

Characterization of extracellular spike waveforms recorded in wallaby primary visual cortex
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023 Extracellular recordings were made from 642 units in the primary visual cortex (V1) of a highly visual marsupial, the Tammar wallaby. The receptive field (RF) characteristics of the cells were objectively estimated using the non-linear input model (NIM),
