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.

An in vivo electrophysiology approach identifies an incretin-like effect in Drosophila insulin-producing cells, highlighting key circuit dynamics which govern glucose homeostasis via conserved mechanisms.

Mechanosensory isolation of C. elegans nematodes independently induces homeostatic structural changes in the dendritic tree and differential response to mechanical stimulation, both these structural and behavioral outcomes are mediated by degenerins and do not affect presynaptic calcium dynamics.

Unveiling the circuit organization and functional roles of endopiriform neurons projecting to the ventral CA1.

Computational modeling revealed that balanced assemblies of excitatory and inhibitory neurons shape representational manifolds in olfactory cortex-like recurrent networks, resulting in joint maps of sensory and semantic information.
