Spatial context non-uniformly modulates inter-laminar communication in the primary visual cortex

Kavli Affiliate: Anirvan Nandy | Authors: Xize Xu, Mitchell P Morton, Nyomi Hudson, Anirvan Nandy and Monika P. Jadi | Summary: Our visual experience is a result of the concerted activity of neuronal ensembles in the sensory hierarchy. Yet how the spatial organization of objects influences neural activity in this hierarchy remains poorly understood. We […]

The Origin and Evolution of Sex Peptide and Sex Peptide Receptor Interactions

Kavli Affiliate: Li Zhao | Authors: Junhui Peng, Nicolas Svetec, Henrik Molina and Li Zhao | Summary: Post-mating responses play a vital role in successful reproduction across diverse species. In fruit flies, sex peptide (SP) binds to sex peptide receptor (SPR), triggering a series of post-mating responses. However, the origin of SPR predates the emergence […]

Rejuvenating silicon probes for acute electrophysiology

Kavli Affiliate: Reza Shadmehr | Authors: Alden Shoup, Natasha Porwal, Mohammad Amin Fakharian, Paul Hage, Simon P Orozco and Reza Shadmehr | Summary: Electrophysiological recording with a new probe often yields better signal quality than with a used probe. Why does the signal quality degrade after only a few experiments? Here, we considered silicon probes […]

Inhibition of Indirect Pathway Activity Causes Abnormal Decision-Making In a Mouse Model of Impulse Control Disorder in Parkinson’s Disease

Kavli Affiliate: Alexandra Nelson | Authors: Xiaowen Zhuang, Julia Lemak, Sadhana Sridhar and Alexandra B Nelson | Summary: Healthy action selection relies on the coordinated activity of striatal direct and indirect pathway neurons. In Parkinson’s disease (PD), in which loss of midbrain dopamine neurons is associated with progressive motor and cognitive deficits, this coordination is […]

Scanning SQUID study of ferromagnetism and superconductivity in infinite-layer nickelates

Kavli Affiliate: Lena F. Kourkoutis | First 5 Authors: Ruby A. Shi, Bai Yang Wang, Yusuke Iguchi, Motoki Osada, Kyuho Lee | Summary: Infinite-layer nickelates $R_{1-x}$Sr$_{x}$NiO$_{2}$ ($R$ = La, Pr, Nd) are a class of superconductors with structural similarities to cuprates. Although long-range antiferromagnetic order has not been observed for these materials, magnetic effects such […]
