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.

Molecular genetics identifies a novel microglial pathway essential for mouse brain development and a previously unknown anti-inflammatory activity of monomeric amyloid β that activates this pathway.

Modulation of division plane rotation in proliferating chondrocytes determines the ratio of clusters and columns, which may support the multifunctional design of the growth plate.

Vglut2-based glutamatergic signaling in central noradrenergic neurons is dispensable for baseline breathing and hypercapnic, hypoxic chemosensory reflexes, which challenges the current understanding of central noradrenergic neurons in breathing control.
