The paper identifies two neurogenic pathways, dNG-ETd and iNG-ETi, that differentially shape the organization and diversification of cortical output channels in mice.

The paper introduces CellREADR, an RNA sensor-effector technology for targeting and manipulating specific human cortical neuron types, validated through histological, electrophysiological, and transcriptomic methods.

The paper introduces CellREADR, an RNA-based technology for targeting and manipulating animal cells by coupling RNA sensing with effector protein translation, and provides a detailed experimental protocol for its implementation.

The paper identifies a corticothalamic channel in the motor cortex that coordinates skilled motor sequences by amplifying thalamic integration of sensorimotor inputs.

This paper introduces CellREADR, a programmable RNA sensing technology that detects and manipulates cell types via RNA editing, demonstrating its use in mouse and human brain tissues.
