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: Rafael Yuste | Authors: Kengo Takahashi, Gerhardus Jan Huis in ‘t Veld, Davide Benedetti, Jun-Ying Wang, Samuel Pontes Quero, Rafael Yuste, Cyriel M.A. Pennartz and Umberto Olcese | Summary: Many techniques to record and manipulate neuronal activity across large portions of the vertebrate brain, such as widefield and two-photon calcium imaging, electrophysiology, and […]
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 […]

Beyond its role in chromosome […]
Kavli Affiliate: Franck Polleux | Authors: Sergio B. Garcia, Alexa P. Schlotter, Daniela Pereira, Aleksandra J Recupero, Franck Polleux and Luke A Hammond | Summary: Quantification of dendritic spines is essential for studying synaptic connectivity, yet most current approaches require manual adjustments or the combination of multiple software tools for optimal results. Here, we present […]
