The paper reconstructs growth cones of callosal projection neurons in the developing mouse brain and finds they have a planar, dorsoventrally oriented morphology with filopodia that precede accelerated axon growth.

The paper investigates how spontaneous and stimulus-driven activity are orthogonalized in primate visual cortex, finding that this process occurs hierarchically across cortical areas.

The paper investigates the neuronal origin of dynamic functional connectivity by comparing neuronal calcium and hemodynamic signals in mice, showing their coordinated temporal dynamics and the role of transient coactivation patterns.
