Kavli Affiliate: Darcy Peterka | Authors: Georgia Bastos, Jacob T Holmes, Jordan M Ross, Anna M Rader, Connor G Gallimore, Darcy S Peterka and Jordan P Hamm | Summary: Visual processing is strongly influenced by context. Stimuli that deviate from contextual regularities elicit augmented responses in primary visual cortex (V1). These heightened responses, known as […]
Kavli Affiliate: Stephen Strittmatter | Authors: Austin Stoner, Li Fu, LaShae Nicholson, Chao Zheng, Takuya Toyonaga, Joshua Spurrier, Will Laird, Zhengxin Cai and Stephen M. Strittmatter | Summary: Background Cellular prion protein (PrPC) is a high-affinity cell-surface receptor for Amyloid-β oligomers (Aßo). In certain overexpression models of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), pharmacology and genetics demonstrate its […]

Kavli Affiliate: Patrick Kanold | Authors: Didhiti Mukherjee, Binghan Xue, Chih-Ting Chen, Minzi Chang, Joseph P-Y. Kao and Patrick O. Kanold | Summary: Sensory perturbation in one modality results in adaptive reorganization of neural pathways within the spared modalities, a phenomenon known as “crossmodal plasticity”, which has been examined during or after the classic ‘critical […]

Novitch and Ye Zhang | Summary: Embryonic neural stem cells (NSCs, i.e., radial glia) in the ventricular-subventricular zone (V-SVZ) generate the majority of neurons and glia in the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Min | Authors: Christopher R. Evans, Marina K. Smiley, Sean Asahara Thio, Mian Wei, Alexa Price-Whelan, Wei Min and Lars E.P. Dietrich | Summary: Within biofilms, gradients of electron acceptors such as oxygen stimulate the formation of physiological subpopulations. This heterogeneity can enable cross-feeding and promote drug resilience, features of the multicellular […]
Kavli Affiliate: Vincent Ferrera | Authors: Dong Liu, Fabian A Munoz Silva, Soroosh Sanatkhani, Antonios Pouliopoulos, Elisa Konofagou, Jack Grinband and Vincent P. Ferrera | Summary: Focused ultrasound (FUS) is a non-invasive neuromodulation technology that is being investigated for potential treatment of neurological and psychiatric disorders. Focused ultrasound combined with microbubbles can temporarily open the […]
