This study shows that Syt1 oligomerisation is essential for clamping spontaneous and asynchronous neurotransmitter release, revealing a mechanism for regulating release modes.

This study identifies a Vamp2 mutation in mice that causes sleep-wake transition deficits by reducing synaptic release probability.

This study uses closed-loop optogenetic modulation to show that gamma frequency and amplitude in hippocampal pyramidal cells can be independently altered by adjusting feedback timing.
