Electrical synapses are the neurophysiological product of gap junctional pores between
neurons that allow bidirectional flow of current between neurons. They are expressed …

Attachment theory is one of the most comprehensive frameworks in social and
developmental psychology. It describes how selective, enduring emotional bonds between …

Many forms of behavior require selective amplification of neuronal representations of
relevant environmental signals. Emotional learning enhances sensory responses in the …

The neuroscientific field benefits from the conjoint evolution of experimental and
computational techniques, allowing for the reconstruction and simulation of complex models …

The thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN) inhibits sensory thalamocortical relay neurons and is a
key regulator of sensory attention as well as sleep and wake states. Recent developments …

Activity-dependent changes of synapse strength have been extensively characterized at
chemical synapses, but the relationship between physiological forms of activity and strength …

Electrical synapses couple inhibitory neurons across the brain, underlying a variety of
functions that are modifiable by activity. Despite recent advances, many functions and …

As information about the world traverses the brain, the signals exchanged between neurons
are passed and modulated by synapses, or specialized contacts between neurons. While …

Propagation of signals across the cerebral cortex is a core component of many cognitive
processes and is generally thought to be mediated by direct intracortical connectivity. The …

It has been suggested that cholinergic neurons shape the oscillatory activity of the
thalamocortical (TC) network in behavioral and electrophysiological experiments. However …
