This study identifies a molecular switch driven by neuronal activity and PGC-1 that promotes the maturation of parvalbumin interneurons during postnatal development.

The paper identifies somatostatin-expressing interneurons as critical for controlling the timing of developmental desynchronization in cortical networks.

The paper develops a spiking network model to identify two types of driver cells in developing neuronal networks and explains their roles in synchronization dynamics.
