Predictive Engineering the Membrane Composition of Neocortical Neurons

The brain is the most mysterious and intricate biological structure known to man. It dominates the way we live, think, reason and behave. It is built of billions of neurons that communicate with each other through trillions of connections using electrical ...

Active tactile exploration using a brain-machine-brain interface

Hannes Bleuler, Solaiman Shokur, Miguel Nicolelis, Mikhail Lebedev

Brain–machine interfaces1, 2 use neuronal activity recorded from the brain to establish direct communication with external actuators, such as prosthetic arms. It is hoped that brain–machine interfaces can be used to restore the normal sensorimotor function ...

A Unique Skeletal Microstructure of the Deep-Sea Micrabaciid Scleractinian Corals

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski

Micrabaciids are solitary, exclusively azooxanthellate deep-sea corals belonging to one of the deepest-living (up to 5,000 m) scleractinian representatives. All modern micrabaciid taxa (genera: Letepsammia, Rhombopsammia, Stephanophyllia, Leptopenus) have ...

Morphological development of thick-tufted layer v pyramidal cells in the rat somatosensory cortex

Henry Markram, Yun Wang, Sandrine Romand

The thick-tufted layer V pyramidal (TTL5) neuron is a key neuron providing output from the neocortex. Although it has been extensively studied, principles governing its dendritic and axonal arborization during development are still not fully quantified. Us ...

Long-range connectivity of mouse primary somatosensory barrel cortex

Bernard Schneider, Carl Petersen, Rachel Aronoff, Céline Matéo, Ferenc Mátyás

The primary somatosensory barrel cortex processes tactile vibrissae information, allowing rodents to actively perceive spatial and textural features of their immediate surroundings. Each whisker on the snout is individually represented in the neocortex by ...

Sound-driven modulation of sub- and suprathreshold activity in mouse primary visual cortex

Diego Ghezzi

Integration of multimodal information is essential for the integrative response of the brain and is thought to be accomplished mostly in sensory association areas. However, available evidences in humans and monkeys indicate that this process begins already ...

Membrane potential dynamics of GABAergic neurons in the barrel cortex of behaving mice

Carl Petersen, Michael Avermann, Ferenc Mátyás

Computations in cortical circuits are mediated by synaptic interactions between excitatory and inhibitory neurons, and yet we know little about their activity in awake animals. Here, through single and dual whole-cell recordings combined with two-photon mi ...

Properties of neocortical microcircuits

Thomas Berger

The mammalian neocortex is one of the most complex brain areas, integrating all sensory modalities and allowing the animal to perform high level cognitive operations. Despite some cytoarchitectural specializations, the general neocortical structure is rema ...

Genetic manipulation, whole-cell recordings and functional imaging of the sensorimotor cortex of behaving mice

Carl Petersen

Sensory processing, sensorimotor integration and motor control are amongst the most basic functions of the brain and yet our understanding of how the underlying neuronal networks operate and contribute to behaviour is very limited. The relative simplicity ...
