Birth order specified recruitment of motor circuits during spontaneous neural activity in zebrafish embryo

The paper shows that birth order specifies the sequential recruitment of motor circuits in zebrafish embryos through synchronized and distinct neuronal activity patterns.

Neuroepithelial progenitors generate and propagate non-neuronal action potentials across the spinal cord

The paper shows spinal neuroepithelial progenitors generate and propagate action potentials independently of neurons during spontaneous neural activity.

Differential homeostatic regulation of glycinergic and GABAergic nanocolumns at mixed inhibitory synapses

The paper uses super-resolution imaging to show that GlyRs and GABAARs form distinct sub-synaptic domains at mixed inhibitory synapses, with differential regulation of GABAARs under increased network activity.

Two opposite voltage-dependent currents control the unusual early development pattern of embryonic Renshaw cell electrical activity

The paper identifies two voltage-dependent currents that regulate the functional diversity and developmental trajectory of embryonic Renshaw cells.
