The paper examines the developmental trajectory of somatostatin interneurons in the mouse visual cortex, showing their increasing influence on pyramidal neuron responses over time.

This study investigates how VIP interneurons influence cortical circuit function and visual perception in mice by altering the selectivity of interneurons and pyramidal neurons for stimulus size.

The paper uses computational models to show that hyper-excitable inhibitory networks can transition from asynchronous to synchronous activity, potentially explaining seizure initiation.

The paper develops computational models of hippocampal networks to understand theta rhythm generation, finding that spike frequency adaptation and post-inhibitory rebound are key mechanisms.
