The cerebral cortex constitutes more than half the volume of the human brain and is
presumed to be responsible for the neuronal computations underlying complex phenomena …

Data collected on astrocytes' physiology in the rodent have placed them as key regulators of
synaptic, neuronal, network, and cognitive functions. While these findings proved highly …

The human cerebral cortex houses 1000 times more neurons than that of the cerebral cortex
of a mouse, but the possible differences in synaptic circuits between these species are still …

To understand the brain we must relate neurons' functional responses to the circuit
architecture that shapes them. Here, we present a large functional connectomics dataset …

Defining the microanatomic differences between the human brain and that of other
mammals is key to understanding its unique computational power. Although much effort has …

Many of our daily activities, such as riding a bike to work or reading a book in a noisy cafe,
and highly skilled activities, such as a professional playing a tennis match or a violin …

The tremendous expansion and the differentiation of the neocortex constitute two major
events in the evolution of the mammalian brain. The increase in size and complexity of our …

Neuroscience produces a vast amount of data from an enormous diversity of neurons. A
neuronal classification system is essential to organize such data and the knowledge that is …

Abstract Model organisms are widely used in research as accessible and convenient
systems to study a particular area or question in biology. Traditionally only a handful of …

Human cortex transcriptomic studies have revealed a hierarchical organization of γ-
aminobutyric acid–producing (GABAergic) neurons from subclasses to a high diversity of …
