Neural circuits look forward [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2011 A fundamental step in linking the activity of individual neurons to circuits and animal behavior is to identify their patterns of connectivity. Traditional methods in electrophysiology and microscopy, although powerful, are limited to addressing only a neuron's immediate neighbors (1). A further limitation of these methods is that this can be addressed

Developmental depression-to-facilitation shift controls excitation-inhibition balance
Communications Biology, 2022 Using computational modelling this study proposes that the commonly observed depression-to-facilitation shift across development controls excitation-inhibition balance in the brain.

Spontaneous activity in whisker-innervating region of neonatal mouse trigeminal ganglion
Scientific Reports, 2022 Spontaneous activity during the early postnatal period is thought to be crucial for the establishment of mature neural circuits. It remains unclear if the peripheral structure of the developing somatosensory system exhibits spontaneous activity, similar ...

Rapid odor processing by layer 2 subcircuits in lateral entorhinal cortex
eLife, 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.

Neural Circuits on a Chip [PDF]
Micromachines, 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 ...

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