Kavli Affiliate: Daeyeol Lee | Authors: Min Song, Eun Ju Shin, Hyojung Seo, Alireza Soltani, Nicholas A Steinmetz, Daeyeol Lee, Min Whan Jung and Se-Bum Paik | Summary: Many anatomical and physiological features of cortical circuits, ranging from the biophysical properties of synapses to the connectivity patterns among different neuron types, exhibit consistent variation along […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Miller | Authors: Byungjin Lee, Fanny Sunden, Michael Miller, Bumshik Pak, Anke Krebber, Stefan Lutz and Polly M Fordyce | Summary: Engineered enzymes with enhanced or novel functions are specific catalysts with wide-ranging applications in industry and medicine. Here, we introduce Droplet Array Microfluidic Enzyme Kinetics (DA-MEK), a high-throughput enzyme screening platform […]
Kavli Affiliate: Keri Martinowich | Authors: Genevieve E Craig, Lizbeth Ramos, Samuel R Essig, Nicholas J Eagles, Andrew E Jaffe, Keri Martinowich and Henry L Hallock | Summary: Deficits in attention are common across a range of neuropsychiatric disorders. A multitude of brain regions, including the frontal cortex (FC) and locus coeruleus (LC), have been […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mounya Elhilali | Authors: Bernhard Englitz, Sahar Akram, Mounya Elhilali and Shihab Shamma | Summary: SPerception can be highly dependent on stimulus context, but whether and how sensory areas encode the context remains uncertain. We used an ambiguous auditory stimulus – a tritone pair – to investigate the neural activity associated with a […]
