Linden, Andrew Pocklington, Yuqin Wang and Meng Li | Summary: Dysregulation in neural progenitor proliferation and neuronal differentiation has been increasingly recognised as a common pathology in neural cells […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alex Kolodkin | Authors: Joelle M Dorskind, Sriram Sudarsanam, Randal A Hand, Jakub Ziak, Maame Amoah-Dankwah, Luis Guzman-Clavel, John Lee Soto-Vargas and Alex L Kolodkin | Summary: Proper cortical lamination is essential for cognition, learning, and memory. Within the somatosensory cortex, pyramidal excitatory neurons elaborate axon collateral branches in a laminar-specific manner that […]
Kavli Affiliate: Patrick Kanold | Authors: Loren Koçillari, Marco Celotto, Nikolas A. Francis, Shoutik Mukherjee, Behtash Babadi, Patrick O. Kanold and Stefano Panzeri | Summary: Measures of functional connectivity have played a central role in advancing our understanding of how information is communicated within the brain. Traditionally, these studies have focused on identifying redundant functional […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kishore V. Kuchibhotla, Cynthia F. Moss | Authors: Jennifer Lawlor, Melville Wohlgemuth, Cynthia F Moss and Kishore V Kuchibhotla | Summary: Rapid categorization of vocalizations enables adaptive behavior across species. While categorical perception is thought to arise in the neocortex, humans and other animals could benefit from functional organization of ethologically-relevant sounds at […]

Kavli Affiliate: James Knierim | Authors: Yue-Qing Zhou, Vyash Puliyadi, Xiaojing Chen, Joonhee Leo Lee, Lan-Yuan Zhang and James J Knierim | Summary: Vector coding is becoming increasingly understood as a major mechanism by which neural systems represent an animal’s location in both a global reference frame and a local, item-based reference frame. Landmark vector […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kathleen Cullen | Authors: Oliver R Stanley, Ananya Swaminathan, Elias Wojahn, Zubair M Ahmed and Kathleen E Cullen | Summary: Quantifying behavior and relating it to underlying biological states is of paramount importance in many life science fields. Although barriers to recording postural data have been reduced by progress in deep-learning-based computer vision […]
