The implication of a diversity of non-neuronal cells in disorders affecting brain networks
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022 In the central nervous system (CNS) neurons are classically considered the functional unit of the brain. Analysis of the physical connections and co-activation of neurons, referred to as structural and functional connectivity, respectively, is a metric ...

Cell-type specific innervation of cortical pyramidal cells at their apical dendrites
eLife, 2020 We investigated the synaptic innervation of apical dendrites of cortical pyramidal cells in a region between layers (L) 1 and 2 using 3-D electron microscopy applied to four cortical regions in mouse.

Exact mean-field theory explains the dual role of electrical synapses in collective synchronization [PDF]
Phys. Rev. Lett. 125, 248101 (2020), 2020 Electrical synapses play a major role in setting up neuronal synchronization, but the precise mechanisms whereby these synapses contribute to synchrony are subtle and remain elusive. To investigate these mechanisms mean-field theories for quadratic integrate-and-fire neurons with electrical synapses have been recently put forward.

Neuromorphic computing with multi-memristive synapses [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2017 Neuromorphic computing has emerged as a promising avenue towards building the next generation of intelligent computing systems. It has been proposed that memristive devices, which exhibit history-dependent conductivity modulation, could efficiently ...

Clusters of synaptic inputs on dendrites of layer 5 pyramidal cells in mouse visual cortex
eLife, 2016 The spatial organization of synaptic inputs on the dendritic tree of cortical neurons plays a major role for dendritic integration and neural computations, yet, remarkably little is known about it.
