Geometrical factors determining dendritic domain intersection between neurons: a modeling study

Rafael Ignacio Gatica, Trinidad D. Montero, Navid Farassat, Pablo Henny

The paper models dendritic domain intersection between neurons, finding that shape uniformity significantly increases intersection and that dynamics vary by cell type.

Recovery of the full in vivo firing range in post-lesion surviving DA SN neurons associated with Kv4.3-mediated pacemaker plasticity

Lora Kovacheva, Josef Shin, Josefa Zaldívar-Díez, Johanna Mankel, Navid Farassat, Kauê Machado Costa, Poonam Singh Thakur, Jose Angel Obeso, Jochen Roeper

The paper shows that surviving DA SN neurons after lesion recovery exhibit full in vivo firing range through Kv4.3-mediated pacemaker plasticity.

In vivo functional diversity of midbrain dopamine neurons within identified axonal projections

Navid Farassat, Kauê Machado Costa, Strahinja Stojanovic, Stefan Albert, Lora Kovacheva, Josef Shin, Richard Egger, Mahalakshmi Somayaji, Sevil Duvarci, Gaby Schneider, Jochen Roeper

This study maps the in vivo firing patterns of midbrain dopamine neurons based on their axonal projections, revealing functional diversity that challenges classical anatomical boundaries.
