Functional connectivity of the L2/3 VIP-to-L4 SST cell circuit motif in the primary somatosensory and visual cortices of mouse
(2024-02-19)The mammalian cortex is comprised of a multitude of cell types, wired together in intricate circuit motifs, which are recruited during different behavioral scenarios. Broadly speaking, neocortical neurons can either be ... -
The Role of the Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) Channel in Sharp Wave Ripples, Place Cells, and Spatial Memory
(2024-02-09)Previous research in our lab found impaired long-term potentiation (LTP) of CA3-CA1 synapses, a fundamental process for learning and memory, in transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) knockout (KO) mice. The TRPV1 ... -
Network formation and reorganization of the olfactory system of Xenopus laevis
(2022-03-03)The olfactory system is a window to the chemical world, that permits each species to adapt to novel spaces and situations. Despite the various phylogenetic adaptations, this sensory system maintains similar functional and ... -
Epigenomic and transcriptomic analysis of developing, adult and aging brain: mechanisms of brain folding, neuronal function and finding novel therapy for dementia
(2021-10-13)Histone modifications and gene expression are tightly regulated processes in the brain that has been shown to play crucial role from the beginning of brain development, learning-memory formation and aging. While brain ... -
Neural Principles Underlying Learning and Memory in Drosophila melanogaster
(2021-03-19)The relay of information from external sensory organs to brain centres that ultimately control behavioural output dictates how an animal interacts with its environment. This process is integral to survival, allowing for ... -
Epigenetic Biomarker and Therapeutic Intervention for Dementia
(2021-01-11)Dementia is the most significant health challenge in modern times, currently affecting over 50 million people worldwide. The number of people afflicted with this disorder is on the rise and expected to double by 2025. ... -
Sound encoding at the first auditory synapse
(2020-08-21)The inner hair cell (IHC) synapse, the first relay station of the auditory system, is able to encode sound with sub-millisecond precision and without any signs of fatigue (Matthews and Fuchs, 2010; Pangršicˇ et al., 2012; ... -
Optogenetic stimulation of the cochlea
(2019-07-15)Optogenetic stimulation of the auditory nerve is a promising alternative to restore hearing. Since light can be focused on the target tissue, the optical cochlear implant (oCI) might support a major improvement in frequency ... -
The role of oligodendrocytes in higher-order circuit functions
(2018-11-12)The historical conception of glial cells as the ‘glue’ that holds the brain together has dramatically changed in the last years. The glia plays an active role in several mechanisms related to information processing in the ... -
A post-synaptic forgetting mechanism controlled by synaptotagmin 3
(2018-05-03)Activity-induced regulation of surface post-synaptic receptor number is a well-known mechanism underlying synaptic plasticity, but the molecular machinery mediating this process is poorly understood. In a screen of ... -
Untangling neuronal diversity: a quantitative electrophysiological and morphological characterization of VIP expressing interneurons
(2017-03-21)VIP expressing interneurons are an essential component of cortical circuitry. This distinct subgroup of inhibitory interneurons was always described as the most heterogeneous subgroup of inhibitory interneurons. However, ...
