A mechanistic model based on the interaction of activity-independent cues from potential synaptic partners and local activity-dependent synaptic plasticity generates growing dendritic morphologies and non-random synaptic organization during development.

NMDA receptors mediate prominent supralinear summation of clustered excitatory inputs to the dendrites of neurogliaform and oriens-lacunosum moleculare interneurons of the hippocampus, showing that these cells perform sub-cellular computations.

A Drosophila olfactory circuit exhibits experience-dependent glial pruning during a well-defined critical period, with long-term consequences for odor processing.

The opposing dopamine receptors Dop1R1 and Dop2R are both enriched around the pre- and postsynaptic sites of different types of neurons, including dopaminergic neurons, in the fly brain.

A new collection of driver lines enables experimental manipulation of over 300 cell types centered around the mushroom body in Drosophila.
