This study investigates how ipsilateral and binocular visual responses develop in mouse visual cortex during the critical period, finding reciprocal interactions between ipsi inputs and binocular responses.

The paper introduces MICs to analyze how modulators reshape interactions between neural populations using a bilinear perturbation framework, showing its effectiveness in simulations and real neural data.

This study identifies CDKL5-mediated phosphorylation of nELAVL as critical for regulating RNA metabolism and condensate communication, essential for visual cortex maturation.

This study identifies circHomer1 as a circRNA critical for synaptic development and experience-dependent plasticity in mouse visual cortex through transcriptome analysis and knockdown experiments.

The paper shows that cortical astrocytes mediate learned behavior by extending norepinephrine signals through calcium dynamics and ATP release, influencing neuronal encoding of task variables.

This study shows that distinct PFC subregions modulate VISp activity differently during behavior, with ACA enhancing visual encoding and ORB shaping movement and arousal-related responses.

This study investigates how visual experience shapes binocular neuron development in the mouse visual cortex, finding that Arc-mediated plasticity is essential for normal circuit formation and maintenance.

This study shows that increasing Arc expression in adult mice restores juvenile-like plasticity in the visual cortex, suggesting Arc plays a key role in age-related declines in neural plasticity.
