Translatome analysis reveals cellular network in DLK-dependent hippocampal glutamatergic neuron degeneration

Kavli Affiliate: Yishi Jin | Authors: Erin M Ritchie, Siming Zhong, Qianyi Pu, Yunbo Li, Binhai Zheng and Yishi Jin | Summary: The conserved MAP3K12/Dual Leucine Zipper Kinase (DLK) plays versatile roles in neuronal development, axon injury and stress responses, and neurodegeneration, depending on cell-type and cellular contexts. Emerging evidence implicates abnormal DLK signaling in […]

Robust characterization of selectivity of individual neurons to distinct task-relevant behavioral states using calcium imaging

Kavli Affiliate: Shreesh P. Mysore | Authors: Huixin Huang, Garima Shah, Hita Adwanikar and Shreesh Mysore | Summary: Investigations into the neural basis of behavior have recently employed fluorescence imaging of calcium dynamics in a variety of brain areas to measure neural responses. However, across studies, diverse and seemingly subjective methodological choices have been made […]

Mapping cis- and trans-regulatory target genes of human-specific deletions

Kavli Affiliate: Alex Pollen | Authors: Tyler Fair, Bryan J Pavlovic, Dani Swope, Octavio E Castillo, Nathan K Schaefer and Alex Aaron Pollen | Summary: Deletion of functional sequence is predicted to represent a fundamental mechanism of molecular evolution. Comparative genetic studies of primates have identified thousands of human-specific deletions (hDels), and the cis-regulatory potential […]

Genome Organization with CUT and Tag (GO-CaT) identifies substructure and maturation of lamina-associated domains in neurons of the developing human brain

Kavli Affiliate: Arnold R. Kriegstein | Authors: Chujing Zhang, Eugene Gil, Sajad Hamid Ahanger, Mingcong Li, Li Wang, Jingjing Li, Arnold Kriegstein and Daniel Lim | Summary: Approximately 30-40% of the human genome is anchored to the nuclear lamina through variably sized (10 kb–10 Mb) lamina-associated domains (LADs). Previous work in cultured murine and human […]

Multi-sample non-negative spatial factorization

Kavli Affiliate: Loyal Goff | Authors: Yi Wang, Kyla Woyshner, Chaichontat Sriworarat, Genevieve Stein-O’Brien, Loyal A Goff and Kasper D Hansen | Summary: Analyzing multi-sample spatial transcriptomics data requires accounting for biological variation. We present multi-sample non-negative spatial factorization (mNSF), an alignment-free framework extending single-sample spatial factorization (NSF) to multi-sample datasets. mNSF incorporates sample-specific spatial […]

Active vision in freely moving marmosets using head-mounted eye tracking

Kavli Affiliate: Cory Miller | Authors: Vikram Pal Singh, Jingwen Li, Jude Mitchell and Cory Miller | Summary: Our understanding of how vision functions as primates actively navigate the real-world is remarkably sparse. As most data have been limited to chaired and typically head-restrained animals, the synergistic interactions of different motor actions/plans inherent to active […]

scatterbar: an R package for visualizing proportional data across spatially resolved coordinates

Kavli Affiliate: Jean Fan | Authors: Dee Velazquez and Jean Fan | Summary: Summary: Displaying proportional data across many spatially resolved coordinates is a challenging but important data visualization task, particularly for spatially resolved transcriptomics data. Scatter pie plots are one type of commonly used data visualization for such data but present perceptual challenges that […]
