The paper introduces a method called patch-walking to improve the efficiency of finding synaptic connections by reusing a single patch clamp electrode, resulting in more connections probed per experiment.

This study shows that basal forebrain cholinergic activation modulates amygdala neuron activity based on reward contingency, affecting conditioned behavior but not unconditioned responses.

The paper shows that GABAergic synaptic scaling, not AMPAergic scaling, homeostatically controls spiking levels by responding to changes in spiking activity rather than direct receptor activation.

This study shows that temporarily inactivating the non-deprived eye can restore vision in amblyopia in cats and mice beyond the critical period.
