The superior colliculus (SC) is the most prominent visual center in mice. Studies over the
past decade have greatly advanced our understanding of the function, organization, and …

Neurons display extreme degrees of polarization, including compartment-specific organelle
morphology. In cortical, long-range projecting, pyramidal neurons (PNs), dendritic …

It is well established that spontaneous activity in the developing mammalian brain plays a
fundamental role in setting up the precise connectivity found in mature sensory circuits …

Neurofeedback (NFB) is emerging as a promising technique that enables self-regulation of
ongoing brain oscillations. However, despite a rise in empirical evidence attesting to its …

Principles of Neurobiology, Second Edition presents the major concepts of neuroscience
with an emphasis on how we know what we know. The text is organized around a series of …

Spontaneous activity refines neural connectivity prior to the onset of sensory experience, but
it remains unclear how such activity instructs axonal connectivity with subcellular precision …

Dysfunction of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) ergic circuits is strongly associated with
neurodevelopmental disorders. However, it is unclear how genetic predispositions impact …

Adult human brains retain the capacity to undergo tissue reorganization during second-
language learning. Brain-imaging studies show a relationship between neuroanatomical …

Optical imaging approaches have revolutionized our ability to monitor neural network
dynamics, but by themselves are unable to link a neuron's activity to its functional …

The development of functional topography in the developing brain follows a progression
from initially coarse to more precisely organized maps. To examine the emergence of …
