Layer-specific control of inhibition by NDNF interneurons

This study shows NDNF interneurons in layer 1 modulate inhibition via GABAergic transmission, controlling information flow in pyramidal cells through competition with SOM interneurons.

Invariant neural subspaces maintained by feedback modulation

This study shows that feedback modulation in neural networks can create context-invariant sensory representations at the population level through dynamic reorientation of neural activity.

Learning excitatory-inhibitory neuronal assemblies in recurrent networks

The paper shows that activity-dependent synaptic plasticity on PV interneurons generates excitatory-inhibitory assemblies in mouse V1, enabling stimulus-specific competition between pyramidal neurons.

Presynaptic inhibition rapidly stabilises recurrent excitation in the face of plasticity

The paper shows presynaptic inhibition stabilizes recurrent excitation in neural networks by counteracting Hebbian plasticity-induced instabilities on sub-second timescales.
