Integrating new neurons into the adult olfactory bulb: joining the network, life–death decisions, and the effects of sensory experience
PM Lledo, A Saghatelyan - Trends in neurosciences, 2005 - cell.com
In contrast to the situation in the developing brain, neurons born during adulthood must
integrate into established neuronal networks characterized by ongoing activity. For sensory …

Dynamic ensemble odor coding in the mammalian olfactory bulb: sensory information at different timescales
Neural firing discharges are often temporally patterned, but it is often ambiguous as to
whether the temporal features of these patterns constitute a useful code. Here we show in …

Critical period mechanisms in developing visual cortex
TK Hensch - Current topics in developmental biology, 2005 - Elsevier
Binocular vision is shaped by experience during a critical period of early postnatal life. Loss
