Rapid odor processing by layer 2 subcircuits in lateral entorhinal cortex

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Olfactory information is encoded in lateral entorhinal cortex (LEC) by two classes of layer 2 (L2) principal neurons: fan and pyramidal cells. However, the functional properties of L2 cells and how they contribute to odor coding are unclear.

Unsupervised discovery of temporal sequences in high-dimensional datasets, with applications to neuroscience. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Identifying low-dimensional features that describe large-scale neural recordings is a major challenge in neuroscience. Repeated temporal patterns (sequences) are thought to be a salient feature of neural dynamics, but are not succinctly captured by ...

Optogenetics and deep brain stimulation neurotechnologies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Brain neural network is composed of densely packed, intricately wired neurons whose activity patterns ultimately give rise to every behavior, thought, or emotion that we experience. Over the past decade, a novel neurotechnique, optogenetics that combines

Cellular diversity in the Drosophila midbrain revealed by single-cell transcriptomics

open access: yeseLife, 2018
To understand the brain, molecular details need to be overlaid onto neural wiring diagrams so that synaptic mode, neuromodulation and critical signaling operations can be considered.

Neural Circuits on a Chip [PDF]

open access: yesMicromachines, 2016
Neural circuits are responsible for the brain’s ability to process and store information. Reductionist approaches to understanding the brain include isolation of individual neurons for detailed characterization. When maintained in vitro for several days or weeks, dissociated neurons self-assemble into randomly connected networks that produce ...

Adaptive Learning Gabor Filter for Finger-Vein Recognition

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Presently, finger-vein recognition is a new research direction in the field of biometric recognition. The Gabor filter has been extensively used for finger-vein recognition; however, its parameters are difficult to adjust.

Recurrent circuits within medial entorhinal cortex superficial layers support grid cell firing

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Medial entorhinal cortex (mEC) neurons encode various navigation parameters such as speed, head direction, as well as grid cells. Here, the authors demonstrate that brief disruption of the local activity in mEC specifically affects grid cell tuning.

NPAS4 recruits CCK basket cell synapses and enhances cannabinoid-sensitive inhibition in the mouse hippocampus

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Experience-dependent expression of immediate-early gene transcription factors (IEG-TFs) can transiently change the transcriptome of active neurons and initiate persistent changes in cellular function.

Internal State Dependent Odor Processing and Perception—The Role of Neuromodulation in the Fly Olfactory System

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
Animals rely heavily on their sense of olfaction to perform various vital interactions with an ever-in-flux environment. The turbulent and combinatorial nature of air-borne odorant cues demands the employment of various coding strategies, which allow the
