Map of spiking activity underlying change detection in the mouse visual system

The paper presents a database of spiking activity in the mouse visual system during an image change detection task, revealing task-specific coding patterns across brain regions.

A Cross-Species Enhancer-AAV Toolkit for Cell Type-Specific Targeting Across the Basal Ganglia

The paper develops a cross-species enhancer-AAV toolkit for targeting specific cell types in the basal ganglia across species, validated in mouse and macaque.

Evolutionary history of Jamestown Canyon virus disentangles complex multi-vector ecology

This study uses whole-genome sequencing and phylodynamic methods to analyze the evolutionary history and ecological dynamics of Jamestown Canyon virus, revealing its slow evolution and transmission patterns.

Enhancer-AAVs allow genetic access to oligodendrocytes and diverse populations of astrocytes across species

The paper develops AAV-based genetic tools to specifically target astrocytes and oligodendrocytes across species, revealing functional roles in reward-dependent acetylcholine responses.

A whole-brain monosynaptic input connectome to neuron classes in mouse visual cortex

The paper maps brain-wide monosynaptic inputs to specific neuron classes in mouse visual cortex using an improved rabies virus tracing strategy and identifies connectivity patterns within and between visual areas.
