Kavli Affiliate: Edward Chang | Authors: Yizhen Zhang, Matthew K Leonard, Laura Gwilliams, Ilina Bhaya-Grossman and Edward F Chang | Summary: When we hear continuous speech, we perceive it as a series of discrete words, despite the lack of clear boundaries in the acoustic signal. The superior temporal gyrus (STG) encodes phonetic elements like consonants […]
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: Seth Blackshaw | Authors: Patrick Leavey, Lizhi Jiang, Nicole Pannullo, Clayton Santiago and Seth Blackshaw | Summary: The vertebrate retina serves as a model for studying neurogenesis and cell fate specification, with retinal progenitor cells following a tightly regulated temporal sequence to generate distinct cell types. Meis1 and Meis2 are transcription factors implicated […]
