Molecular architecture of the developing mouse brain

Gioele La Manno, Alex Russell Lederer, Irina Khven

The mammalian brain develops through a complex interplay of spatial cues generated by diffusible morphogens, cell-cell interactions and intrinsic genetic programs that result in probably more than a thousand distinct cell types. A complete understanding of ...

Clustering and control for adaptation uncovers time-warped spike time patterns in cortical networks in vivo

James Bryden Isbister

How information in the nervous system is encoded by patterns of action potentials (i.e. spikes) remains an open question. Multi-neuron patterns of single spikes are a prime candidate for spike time encoding but their temporal variability requires further c ...

Objective Morphological Classification of Neocortical Pyramidal Cells

Henry Markram, Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Srikanth Ramaswamy, Rodrigo de Campos Perin, Marwan Muhammad Ahmed Abdellah, Lida Kanari, Ying Shi, Julie Meystre, Yun Wang

A consensus on the number of morphologically different types of pyramidal cells (PCs) in the neocortex has not yet been reached, despite over a century of anatomical studies, due to the lack of agreement on the subjective classifications of neuron types, w ...

In connectomics, the study of the network structure of connected neurons, great advances are being made on two different scales: that of macro- and meso-scale connectomics, studying the connectivity between populations of neurons, and that of micro-scale c ...

Data-driven reconstruction of a point neuron mouse brain

Csaba Erö

In this work, we present a semi-automatic method to reconstruct a mouse whole-brain model at the point-neuron level by integrating a wide array of biological data. Our process has three parts: cell position and type assignment, connectivity mapping, and si ...

Throughout species, including mice and humans, we all have to make decisions to fulfill our fundamentals needs: eat, drink, explore, communicate, reproduce... To make those decisions, we have to collect informations from the surrounding world and to proces ...

A Cell Atlas for the Mouse Brain

Henry Markram, Daniel Keller, Marc-Oliver Gewaltig

Despite vast numbers of studies of stained cells in the mouse brain, no current brain atlas provides region-by-region neuron counts. In fact, neuron numbers are only available for about 4% of brain of regions and estimates often vary by as much as 3-fold. ...

Selective electrical and optical neuromodulation of the central nervous system with conformable microfabricated implants

Amélie Anne Guex

Neuroprosthetic systems are designed to interface with the nervous system, for the replacement or restoration of damaged functions in the motor and/or sensory systems. In order to have an efficient communication with the nervous tissue leading to optimized ...

Visceral motor neuron diversity delineates a cellular basis for nipple- and pilo-erection muscle control

Gioele La Manno

Despite the variety of physiological and target-related functions, little is known regarding the cellular complexity in the sympathetic ganglion. We explored the heterogeneity of mouse stellate and thoracic ganglia and found an unexpected variety of cell t ...

Human cell reprogramming technologies offer access to live human neurons from patients and provide a new alternative for modeling neurological disorders in vitro. Neural electrical activity is the essence of nervous system function in vivo. Therefore, we e ...
