    Synaptic connectivity to L2/3 of primary visual cortex measured by two-photon optogenetic stimulation

    Travis A Hage, Alice Bosma-Moody ... Gabe J Murphy
    A combination of multicellular recording and optogenetic photostimulation was used to deeply characterize the spatial profiles and effective strengths of intralaminar and translaminar synaptic connections from genetically defined neuronal populations in the visual cortex of adult mouse.

    Intrinsic mechanisms in the gating of resurgent Na+ currents

    Joseph L Ransdell, Jonathan D Moreno ... Jeanne M Nerbonne
    Experimental and modeling results reveal that the activation of resurgent sodium currents relies on the recovery of inactivated channels into a conducting state, and that the decay of resurgent currents reflects the accumulation of these channels into a slow-inactivated state.

    Nonlinear transient amplification in recurrent neural networks with short-term plasticity

    Yue Kris Wu, Friedemann Zenke
    The interplay of recurrent excitation and short-term plasticity enables nonlinear transient amplification, an ideal mechanism for selective amplification, pattern completion, and pattern separation in recurrent neural networks.

    FMRP regulates mRNAs encoding distinct functions in the cell body and dendrites of CA1 pyramidal neurons

    Caryn R Hale, Kirsty Sawicka ... Robert B Darnell
    Combining compartment- and cell-type specific transcriptomic approaches reveals FMRP regulation of synaptic regulators in the dendrites and chromatin regulators in the cell bodies of CA1 neurons.

    Fluorescence activation mechanism and imaging of drug permeation with new sensors for smoking-cessation ligands

    Aaron L Nichols, Zack Blumenfeld ... Henry A Lester
    Pharmacokinetics, the venerable science that measures the dynamics and concentrations an administered drug attains in organs, has been extended to the subcellular level – organelles – by a generalizable new paradigm.

    Judgments of agency are affected by sensory noise without recruiting metacognitive processing

    Marika Constant, Roy Salomon, Elisa Filevich
    Explicit judgments of agency incorporate uncertainty by reflecting first-order measures of a noisy signal, but they do not correspond to second-order metacognitive measures of the noise in a signal.

    Memory: Diversity on location

    Young J Yoon, Gary J Bassell
    The RNA binding protein FMRP regulates the synthesis of synaptic and nuclear proteins within different compartments of a neuron.

    Transcriptional regulation of neural stem cell expansion in the adult hippocampus

    Nannan Guo, Kelsey D McDermott ... Amar Sahay
    Kruppel-like factor 9 (Klf9) is a transcriptional regulator of neural stem cell expansion in the adult hippocampus.

    Dynamics and nanoscale organization of the postsynaptic endocytic zone at excitatory synapses

    Lisa AE Catsburg, Manon Westra ... Harold D MacGillavry
    The postsynaptic endocytic zone is a highly organized structure composed of a diversity of endocytic proteins.

    Human interictal epileptiform discharges are bidirectional traveling waves echoing ictal discharges

    Elliot H Smith, Jyun-you Liou ... John D Rolston
    Large bursts of brain activity in patients with epilepsy are geometrically related to seizure propagation.
