The apical dendrite looks great, and does wonders in a slice. What does it do in the living cortex? It depends on the cell. A causal spatial role for apical dendrites in the cortex www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... by @anyiliu.bsky.social with @kenneth-harris.bsky.social and @fedrossi.bsky.social

This was a super team project with Rebecca Morse-Mora, the Peter Jonas lab and scientific services at @istaresearch.bsky.social, enabled by our fantastic collaboration with Prof. Karl Rössler at the @meduniwien.ac.at. We still have a lot to learn about hippocampal function and #humancircuits!! 🔎

Hippocampal CA3 forms a two-layer network of molecularly distinct cell types in mice and humans

Associational memory is critically dependent on the CA3 recurrent circuit, at the centre of the hippocampal system. While diversity amongst CA3 pyramidal neurons (PNs) has been long reported, the prin...

Histamine originating from the BNST modulates corticostriatal synaptic transmission during early postnatal development

The neuromodulator histamine regulates key processes in many circuits of the adult and developing brain, including striatum. However, striatal innervation by histaminergic afferents is very sparse mak...

1/7 🧠 My journey into development begins with this work and question: how does the brain's spatial navigation system develop? We found that the neural networks for spatial navigation (tori and rings) are preconfigured and only later anchor gradually to the world with experience! 🧵

Edvard I Moser@edvardmoser.bsky.social · 5mo ago

Is spatial navigation innate 🧠? Using #NeuroPixels we show that the #torus 🍩 underlying the #GridCell map exists already on day 10 in rats — before pups open eyes and ears and before they start upright walking. 🧵1:4 👇 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
