This study shows that astrocytes can be converted into functional neurons in the mouse visual cortex, which can integrate into cortical circuits and respond to visual stimuli.

This study identifies a molecular switch driven by neuronal activity and PGC-1 that promotes the maturation of parvalbumin interneurons during postnatal development.

This study identifies how neuropeptide-encoding genes regulate synaptic plasticity in parvalbumin interneurons in the adult mouse neocortex.

The paper identifies somatostatin-expressing interneurons as critical for controlling the timing of developmental desynchronization in cortical networks.

The paper identifies a signaling pathway that regulates local protein synthesis at specific synapses on PV+ interneurons in the mouse cortex.

The paper identifies input-specific mechanisms regulating the survival of two striatal interneuron subtypes during programmed cell death.

The paper quantifies progenitor cell outputs in the developing mouse neocortex, showing stochastic lineage generation of pyramidal cells leading to diverse laminar configurations.
