    Membrane bridging by Munc13-1 is crucial for neurotransmitter release

    Bradley Quade, Marcial Camacho ... Josep Rizo
    Cryo-electron tomography, reconstitution, and electrophysiological data show that a fundamental function of Munc13-1 is to bridge synaptic vesicles to the presynaptic plasma membrane.

    State transitions in the substantia nigra reticulata predict the onset of motor deficits in models of progressive dopamine depletion in mice

    Amanda M Willard, Brian R Isett ... Aryn H Gittis
    The transition in basal ganglia output from the healthy to the diseased state is biphasic, stereotyped across models, and suggests key time points for delivering therapeutic interventions.

    PARIS, an optogenetic method for functionally mapping gap junctions

    Ling Wu, Ao Dong ... Yulong Li
    As the first fully genetically encoded method, PARIS allows cell-specific, long-term, repeated measurements of gap junctional coupling with high spatiotemporal resolution, facilitating its study in both health and disease.

    A causal role for the precuneus in network-wide theta and gamma oscillatory activity during complex memory retrieval

    Melissa Hebscher, Jed A Meltzer, Asaf Gilboa
    Inhibitory noninvasive stimulation to the precuneus disrupts theta and gamma oscillatory coupling between medial temporal lobes and neocortical regions during complex personal memory retrieval.
