Shank3 mutation disrupts affective touch encoding in the dorsal medial prefrontal cortex of Beagle dogs

This study shows that Shank3 mutations in dogs disrupt affective touch processing in the dmPFC, with potential therapeutic implications.

Beyond Inheritance: De novo Fast Motion Computation in Primate Visual Cortex

The paper shows that primate visual cortex areas compute velocity de novo through cascaded spatiotemporal integration, enabling efficient encoding of both slow and fast motion.

Engineering of NEMO as calcium indicators with large dynamics and high sensitivity

This paper develops NEMO, a new suite of calcium indicators with higher sensitivity and dynamic range than existing GECIs, enabling better detection of calcium transients in neurons and other cells.

Functional clusters of neurons in layer 6 of macaque V1

The paper identifies multiple functional clusters of neurons in layer 6 of macaque V1 based on their response to visual stimuli, revealing distinct sub-populations with different visual properties.
