Parcellating cerebral cortex: how invasive animal studies inform noninvasive mapmaking in humans
DC Van Essen, MF Glasser - Neuron, 2018 - cell.com
The cerebral cortex in mammals contains a mosaic of cortical areas that differ in function,
architecture, connectivity, and/or topographic organization. A combination of local …

Spontaneous behaviors drive multidimensional, brainwide activity
INTRODUCTION In the absence of sensory inputs, the brain produces structured patterns of
activity, which can be as large as or larger than sensory-driven activity. Ongoing activity …

mTOR-related synaptic pathology causes autism spectrum disorder-associated functional hyperconnectivity
Postmortem studies have revealed increased density of excitatory synapses in the brains of
individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), with a putative link to aberrant mTOR …

Molecular atlas of the adult mouse brain
Brain maps are essential for integrating information and interpreting the structure-function
relationship of circuits and behavior. We aimed to generate a systematic classification of the …

[HTML][HTML] Apical drive—A cellular mechanism of dreaming?
Dreams are internally generated experiences that occur independently of current sensory
input. Here we argue, based on cortical anatomy and function, that dream experiences are …

Multimodal gradients across mouse cortex
The primate cerebral cortex displays a hierarchy that extends from primary sensorimotor to
association areas, supporting increasingly integrated function underpinned by a gradient of …

Ketamine disinhibits dendrites and enhances calcium signals in prefrontal dendritic spines
A subanesthetic dose of ketamine causes acute psychotomimetic symptoms and sustained
antidepressant effects. In prefrontal cortex, the prevailing disinhibition hypothesis posits that …

Higher-order thalamic circuits channel parallel streams of visual information in mice
C Bennett, SD Gale, ME Garrett, ML Newton… - Neuron, 2019 - cell.com
Higher-order thalamic nuclei, such as the visual pulvinar, play essential roles in cortical
function by connecting functionally related cortical and subcortical brain regions. A coherent …

Inhibition stabilization is a widespread property of cortical networks
Many cortical network models use recurrent coupling strong enough to require inhibition for
stabilization. Yet it has been experimentally unclear whether inhibition-stabilized network …
