Improving the Cosmological Constraints by Inferring the Formation Channel of Extreme-mass-ratio Inspirals

Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen | First 5 Authors: Liang-Gui Zhu, Hui-Min Fan, Xian Chen, Yi-Ming Hu, Jian-dong Zhang | Summary: Extreme-mass ratio inspirals (EMRIs) could be detected by space-borne gravitational-wave (GW) detectors, such as the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA), TianQin and Taiji. In general, locating EMRIs by space-borne GW detectors can help us select […]

Developmental trajectory of cortical somatostatin interneuron function

Kavli Affiliate: Michael J Higley | Authors: Alex Wang, Katie A. Ferguson, Jyoti Gupta, Michael J. Higley and Jessica A. Cardin | Summary: GABAergic inhibition is critical to the proper development of neocortical circuits. However, GABAergic interneurons are highly diverse and the developmental roles of distinct inhibitory subpopulations remain largely unclear. Dendrite-targeting, somatostatin-expressing interneurons (SST-INs) […]
