Kavli Affiliate: John Reynolds | Authors: Zachary W Davis, Nicholas M Dotson, Tom Franken, Lyle Muller and John Reynolds | Summary: Abstract The cortical column is one of the fundamental computational circuits in the brain. In order to understand the role neurons in different layers of this circuit play in cortical function it is necessary […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel S. Mucida | Authors: Maria Cecilia C. Canesso, Tiago Bruno Castro, Sandra Nakandakari-Higa, Ainsley Lockhart, Daria Esterhazy, Bernardo Sgarbi Reis, Gabriel D Victora and Daniel Mucida | Summary: Abstract The intestinal immune system must concomitantly tolerate food and commensals and protect against pathogens. Dendritic cells (DCs) orchestrate these immune responses by presenting […]

Leutgeb and Stefan Leutgeb | Summary: Abstract Deficits in spatial navigation are among the early symptoms in Alzheimer’s disease patients, consistent with the hippocampal formation as […]
Kavli Affiliate: Elena Gracheva | Authors: Luke H. Ziolkowski, Elena O. Gracheva and Sviatoslav N. Bagriantsev | Summary: Abstract Afferents of peripheral mechanoreceptors innervate the skin of vertebrates, where they detect physical touch via mechanically gated ion channels (mechanotransducers). While the afferent terminal is generally understood to be the primary site of mechanotransduction, the functional […]

Kavli Affiliate: Terrence Sejnowski | Authors: Antonio Pinto-Duarte, Katherine Bogue, Terrence J Sejnowski and Shyam Srinivasan | Summary: Abstract The neocortex and paleocortex process sensory information and take part in higher cognitive tasks such as decision-making. The environment of the circuits within these regions is largely controlled by glial cells. Studies have shown that, across […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gabriel Silva | Authors: Vivek K George, Vikash N Morar and Gabriel A Silva | Summary: Abstract Spike-timing dependent plasticity (STDP) is widely accepted as a mechanism through which the brain can learn information from different stimuli. Basing synaptic changes on the timing between presynaptic and postsynaptic spikes enhances contributing edges within a […]
