This study identifies a cortical circuit in mice that coordinates oromanual food manipulation through specific neuron types and their projections.

The paper identifies two neurogenic pathways, dNG-ETd and iNG-ETi, that differentially shape the organization and diversification of cortical output channels in mice.

The paper shows that motor cortical circuits integrate distorted proprioceptive feedback by separating activity subspaces to maintain task-relevant movement output.

The paper identifies a corticothalamic channel in the motor cortex that coordinates skilled motor sequences by amplifying thalamic integration of sensorimotor inputs.

The paper identifies distinct functional roles of pyramidal neuron types in cortical activity during decision-making tasks.

The paper identifies distinct functional subnetworks in the mouse cortex driven by two types of glutamatergic projection neurons during behavior.

This paper introduces CellREADR, a programmable RNA sensing technology that detects and manipulates cell types via RNA editing, demonstrating its use in mouse and human brain tissues.

The paper provides a detailed cellular-resolution map of the mouse primary motor cortex, defining cell types and their connectivity.

The paper develops genetic tools to dissect glutamatergic neuron subpopulations and their developmental trajectories in the cerebral cortex.

Before eye opening, retinal and callosal activity regulates the density of chandelier cells in V1 to establish binocular vision.
