This paper creates an anatomical and molecular atlas of the nociceptive medial thalamus, identifying a distinct population of opioid receptor-expressing neurons involved in pain processing.

AxoDen quantifies axonal density in defined brain regions using a semi-automated platform to improve accuracy and reduce variability compared to traditional methods.

This study shows that activity-induced phosphorylation of MeCP2 is critical for retinogeniculate synapse maturation during early postnatal development.
