Spontaneous Dynamics Predict the Effects of Targeted Intervention in Hippocampal Neuronal Cultures

The paper uses experimental and computational methods to show that spontaneous network activity patterns predict the effects of targeted stimulation in hippocampal neuronal cultures.

A Locus Coeruleus- dorsal CA1 dopaminergic circuit modulates memory linking

The paper identifies a locus coeruleus-dorsal CA1 dopaminergic circuit that modulates memory linking without affecting memory formation.

Compartmentalized dendritic plasticity in the retrosplenial cortex integrates memories across time

The paper shows that dendritic plasticity in the retrosplenial cortex links memories by allocating spine clusters to the same dendritic segments for temporally close memories.

Challenging the point neuron dogma: FS basket cells as 2-stage nonlinear integrators

The paper challenges the point neuron dogma by showing FS basket cells use nonlinear dendritic computations, modeled as a 2-stage ANN, to explain somatic firing variability.
