Distinct representations of economic variables across regions and projections of the frontal cortex

The paper identifies distinct spatial and projection-based encoding of economic variables in the frontal cortex of mice during decision-making tasks.

Perinatal serotonin signalling dynamically influences the development of cortical GABAergic circuits with consequences for lifelong sensory encoding

This study shows that perinatal serotonin signalling affects cortical GABAergic circuit development, leading to lifelong sensory encoding changes.

GABAergic circuits reflect different requirements for emergent perception in postnatal mouse neocortex

The paper shows that GABAergic circuits in postnatal mouse neocortex differ between somatosensory and visual cortices, with somatostatin interneurons playing distinct roles in sensory processing.

Temporal origin of mouse claustrum and development of its cortical projections

This study determines the developmental timeline of the mouse claustrum, including neuronal birthdates, spatial localization, and the maturation of its cortical projections.

Single neurons and networks in the claustrum integrate input from widespread cortical sources

This study identifies claustrum neurons and their connectivity patterns, showing they integrate inputs from multiple cortical regions and contribute to multimodal sensory processing.

Non-canonical role for Lpar1-EGFP subplate neurons in early postnatal somatosensory cortex

The paper investigates the synaptic connectivity of Lpar1-EGFP subplate neurons in mouse somatosensory cortex, identifying two subtypes with distinct axonal projections and input patterns.

Contribution of interneuron subtype-specific GABAergic signalling to emergent sensory processing in somatosensory whisker barrel cortex in mouse.

The paper investigates how specific GABAergic interneuron subtypes contribute to sensory processing development in the mouse whisker barrel cortex, showing differential effects on adaptation and spontaneous activity.

Ontogeny of the VIP+ interneuron sensory-motor circuit prior to active whisking

The paper examines the development of VIP+ interneuron circuits in mouse somatosensory cortex, revealing distinct input and output connections and the role of Prox1 in local connectivity.
