Synergistic effect of mutations in the Parkinson’s disease-linked endocytic proteins synaptojanin 1 (PARK20) and auxilin (PARK19)

Kavli Affiliate: Pietro DeCamilli | Authors: Xin Yi Ng, Yumei Wu, Youneng Lin, Sidra Mohamed Yaqoob, Lois E. Greene, Pietro De Camilli and Mian Cao | Summary: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by defective dopaminergic (DAergic) input to the striatum. Mutations in two genes encoding synaptically-enriched clathrin-uncoating factors, synaptojanin 1 (SJ1) and […]

Hypomyelination reduces parvalbumin interneuron density and auditory cortex inhibitory function

Kavli Affiliate: Patrick Kanold | Authors: Beatriz C Borges, Xiangying Meng, Patrick Long, Patrick O Kanold and Gabriel Corfas | Summary: For a long time, myelin was thought to be restricted to excitatory neurons, and studies on dysmyelination focused primarily on excitatory cells. Recent evidence showed that axons of inhibitory neurons in the neocortex are […]

Dissecting neural computations of the human auditory pathway using deep neural networks for speech

Kavli Affiliate: Edward Chang | Authors: Yuanning Li, Gopala K Anumanchipalli, Abdelrahman Mohamed, Junfeng Lu, Jinsong Wu and Edward F Chang | Summary: The human auditory system extracts rich linguistic abstractions from the speech signal. Traditional approaches to understand this complex process have used classical linear feature encoding models, with limited success. Artificial neural networks […]

IReNA: integrated regulatory network analysis of single-cell transcriptomes

Kavli Affiliate: Seth Blackshaw | Authors: Cjunyao jiang, Pin Lyu, Jinlian Li, Sunan Huang, Seth Blackshaw, Jiang Qian and Jie Wang | Summary: Although single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and single-cell assay for transposase accessible chromatin using sequencing (scATAC-seq) have been widely used, few methods can reliably integrate these data to perform regulatory network analysis. Here, […]

Cohesin erases genomic-proximity biases to drive stochastic Protocadherin expression for proper neural wiring

Kavli Affiliate: Daniele Canzio | Authors: Lea Kiefer, Gabrielle Isabelle F. Servito, Sandy M Rajkumar, Jennifer Langen, Anna Chiosso, Alexander Buckley, Elizabeth S. Cha, Adan Horta, Michael H Mui and Daniele Canzio | Summary: Clustered Protocadherin (Pcdh) proteins act as cell-surface recognition barcodes for neural circuit formation. Neurites expressing the same barcode repel each other, […]

Not optimal, just noisy: the geometry of correlated variability leads to highly suboptimal sensory coding

Kavli Affiliate: Kristofer Bouchard | Authors: Jesse A Livezey, Pratik Singh Sachdeva, Maximilian E Dougherty, Mathew T Summers and Kristofer E Bouchard | Summary: The brain represents the world through the activity of neural populations. Correlated variability across simultaneously recorded neurons (noise correlations) has been observed across cortical areas and experimental paradigms. Many studies have […]
