This study shows that a GNB1 mutation impairs GIRK channel function in mice, leading to increased dendritic excitability and seizure susceptibility, which can be reversed by a GIRK activator.

This paper develops a biology-compatible deep learning algorithm that uses specialized neuronal cell types and compartmentalized signaling to improve image classification.

The paper maps input locations to dendritic domains of layer 5 pyramidal neurons in mice, showing that feedforward and feedback pathways target distinct domains with greater specificity than their axonal branching patterns suggest.

The paper shows that apical dendrite length in L5 pyramidal neurons affects dendritic excitability and computational diversity across different cortical regions.
