Novel genetically encoded tools PFE3, paGFE3, and chGFE3 can be used to reversibly ablate excitatory synapses constitutively, and inhibitory synapses in a light- or chemically dependent manner.
When navigating environments with changing rules, human brain circuits flexibly adapt how and where we retain information to help us achieve our immediate goals.
Larger dendritic diameter, increased conductance load at the soma, and differences in cable and ion channel properties enable faster signal propagation in human neocortical dendrites, preserving information processing speed.

Purkinje cells influence postural control in developing zebrafish, revealing age-dependent cerebellar contributions to balance and establishing a powerful model for studying cerebellar control of postural maturation.
The distributed network of working memory, encompassing frontal, parietal, and sensory cortices, flexibly reconfigures under different tasks to adapt to varying control demands.
