Excitatory recurrent synapses in the upper pyramidal layer of the prefrontal cortex exhibit delayed short-term facilitation, despite very high vesicular fusion probability, through synaptotagmin 7-dependent overfilling of release sites.

Mouse primary motor and somatosensory cortices contain detailed information about the many time-varying arm and paw joint angles during reaching and grasping, implying a 'low-level' role in controlling these movements.

Metabolic imaging of the Drosophila mushroom body reveals distinct profiles among Kenyon cell subtypes and detects a subtle learning-associated metabolic change.
Experiments mapping individual neurons in the sensorimotor cortex of mice show that sharp transitions in functional properties can define cortical regions.
