The paper introduces BakingTray, an open-source software platform for block-face serial two-photon tomography, demonstrating its utility in neuroscience applications.

This study shows that reward-based learning rapidly reorganizes sensory cortical representations within minutes through spontaneous reactivation events.

The paper identifies a conserved locus coeruleus (LC) fMRI signature across sleep, anesthesia, and wakefulness, showing its impact on brain-state transitions and functional connectivity.

The paper shows that vagal afferent activation induces brain-body cooling and NREM-sleep-like states while increasing locus coeruleus activity.

This study shows that LC activity partitions NREM sleep into brain and autonomic states that regulate the NREM-REM cycle, with high activity enabling microarousals and low activity required for REMS entries.

The paper examines changes in excitatory and inhibitory neuron activity in mouse motor cortices before and after learning a whisker detection task, finding opposing changes in some areas and similar changes in others.

This study identifies cortical regions involved in delayed sensory-triggered motor responses in mice using calcium imaging and electrophysiology.
