Therefore, the authors do not wish this work to be cited as reference for the project. If you have […]
Kavli Affiliate: Darcy Peterka | Authors: Eddy Albarran, Akira Fushiki, Anders Nelson, David Ng, Corryn Chaimowitz, Laudan Nikoobakht, Tanya Sippy, Darcy S Peterka and Rui M Costa | Summary: The basal ganglia and midbrain dopaminergic systems are critical for motor control, reward processing, and reinforcement learning, with dysfunction in these systems implicated in numerous neurodegenerative […]
Kavli Affiliate: Rui Costa | Authors: Ian Cone, Claudia Clopath and Rui Ponte Costa | Summary: Behavioral Timescale Synaptic Plasticity (BTSP) is a form of synaptic plasticity in which dendritic Ca2+ plateau potentials in hippocampal pyramidal neurons drive rapid place field formation. Unlike traditional learning rules, BTSP learns correlations on the timescales of seconds and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Goldberg | Authors: Michael E Goldberg, Harriet Dashnow, Kelley Harris and Aaron R Quinlan | Summary: Short tandem repeats (STRs) are hotspots of genomic instability that mutate at rates orders of magnitude greater than non-repetitive loci due to frequent replication slippage. Expansions at some STR loci cause Mendelian diseases, while variation at […]
Kavli Affiliate: Attila Losonczy | Authors: Simone Tasciotti, Daniel Maxim Iascone, Spyridon Chavlis, Luke Hammond, Yardena Katz, Attila Losonczy, Franck Polleaux and Panayiota Poirazi | Summary: The synaptic mechanisms driving feature selectivity in specific neuron types remains a fundamental and unresolved challenge in neuroscience. In hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons (PNs), the development of place selectivity, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Kenneth Miller | Authors: Tuan Nguyen, Agostina Palmigiano and Kenneth D Miller | Summary: How does the brain integrate sensory inputs with non-feature-tuned signals, such as those arising from behavioral state changes or neuromodulation? Here, we show that the dynamics of disordered E/I networks with structured, feature-dependent connectivity can be well characterized by […]
Kavli Affiliate: Scott Small | Authors: Clara T Rehmann, Scott T Small, Peter L Ralph and Andrew D. Kern | Summary: As organisms adapt to environmental changes, natural selection modifies the frequency of non-neutral alleles. For beneficial mutations, the outcome of this process may be a selective sweep, in which an allele rapidly increases in […]

Kavli Affiliate: Rui Costa | Authors: Dabal Pedamonti, Samia Mohinta, Martin Dimitrov, Hugo Malagon-Vina, Stephane Ciocchi and Rui Ponte Costa | Summary: Mastering navigation in environments with limited visibility is crucial for survival. Although the hippocam-pus has been associated with goal-oriented navigation, its role in real-world behaviour remains unclear. To investigate this, we combined deep […]
