A causal spatial role for apical dendrites in the cortex

Anyi Liu, Kenneth D Harris, Matteo Carandini, Luigi Federico Rossi

The paper demonstrates that apical dendrites in L5 neurons of the mouse visual cortex drive responses to large stimuli rather than suppress them, with extended synaptic inputs.

Grid cell firing fields in a volumetric space

Roddy M. Grieves, Selim Jedidi-Ayoub, Karyna Mishchanchuk, Anyi Liu, Sophie Renaudineau, Éléonore Duvelle, Kathryn J. Jeffery

The paper investigates how grid cells represent volumetric space in rats and finds that their firing fields are irregularly arranged despite maintaining normal spatial and dynamic properties.
