Neuromodulatory Control of Cortical Function: Cell-Type Specific Regulation of Neuronal Information Transfer

This study investigates how neuromodulators like dopamine and acetylcholine regulate neuronal information transfer by altering functional domains in excitatory and inhibitory neurons.

Electrical diversity of neurons in sensory cortices

The paper introduces a method to objectively select informative parameters for neuronal functional classification, revealing 9 and 11 subpopulations in somatosensory and visual cortices respectively.

The tuning of tuning: how adaptation influences single cell information transfer.

The paper measures and models how intrinsic neural properties affect information transfer in cortical neurons, finding excitatory neurons have more heterogeneous and lossy information transfer than inhibitory neurons.

Nonlinear super-resolution signal processing allows intracellular tracking of calcium dynamics

This paper introduces ARES, a baseline-free method for quantifying fluorescence signals that improves spatiotemporal resolution of calcium imaging data and enables tracking of intracellular calcium dynamics.

A whole-cell recording database of neuromodulatory action in the adult neocortex

The paper introduces a database of whole-cell patch-clamp recordings from adult mouse neocortical neurons, examining the effects of various neuromodulators on cellular excitability.

Assessing the utility of MAGNETO to control neuronal excitability in the somatosensory cortex

This study evaluates MAGNETO's ability to control neuronal excitability in the somatosensory cortex using in vitro and in vivo recordings, finding no effect on subthreshold membrane excitability or action potential generation.

A databank for intracellular electrophysiological mapping of the adult somatosensory cortex

The paper provides a database of intracellular electrophysiological recordings from adult mouse somatosensory cortex neurons to study neuronal integration and action potential generation.
