This study shows that CNS axon diameter growth does not require oligodendrocyte ensheathment or myelination, contrasting with PNS findings.

This study shows that neurodevelopmental processes in the cortex and thalamus can occur normally without microglia, using a genetically modified mouse model.

This study examines how grid cell firing fields are anchored to task environments and their impact on path integration-dependent behavior, finding that task-anchored grid cells improve performance when visual cues are absent.

The paper shows that fan cells in the lateral entorhinal cortex (LEC) connect to the medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) layer 1, influencing MEC neurons through both excitation and inhibition.

This study shows that retrohippocampal neurons use ramping activity to encode spatial memory, with slope changes representing rewarded locations, and this strategy is supported by neural networks.

This paper demonstrates the use of SPAD sensors to image neural activity at kilohertz frame rates, resolving subthreshold and spiking activity with shot noise limited signals.

pyNeurode provides a real-time spike sorting framework for neural signals with high accuracy and scalability, supporting up to 128 channels and integrating with Open Ephys.

The paper shows pure grid cells encode head direction through distinct mechanisms, with firing fields tuned to multiple head directions.

This study identifies fan cells in layer 2 of the lateral entorhinal cortex as critical for object-place-context memory, with their inactivation causing deficits similar to early Alzheimer's disease.
