Molecular and circuit analysis of stable contrast processing in the visual system
(2022-08-01)Visual perception gives us a reliable estimate of the world throughout the day, thanks to the computations implemented in visual circuits. In a given space or time, the relative change in luminance, contrast, forms the ... -
Characterization of immune responses in the meninges
(2022-06-14)Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS), which is characterized by plaque-like demyelination in both white and grey matter and diffuse neurodegeneration. A T cell-driven ... -
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 ... -
Molecular and structural correlates of ocular dominance plasticity in mice
(2020-11-11)During early postnatal life, the brain goes through critical periods of increased plasticity, which enable experience-dependent refinements of neuronal circuits. Insertion of α-amino- 3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic ... -
Nonlinearities in bipolar cells and their role for encoding visual signals
(2019-05-02)Vision begins in the retina, where ganglion cells separate the visual input into ~30 parallel output channels with different response characteristics to visual stimuli. How retinal ganglion cells obtain such a diversity ... -
Determination of the Dynamic Gain Function of Cortical Interneurons with distinct Electrical Types
(2017-04-25)In the living brain, individual neurons are constantly bombarded by thousands of synaptic inputs, which results in a fluctuating membrane potential. Neurons under such conditions are said to operate in a “fluctuation-driven ... -
Methodological and Cognitice Aspects of transcranial Electrical Stimulation
(2017-04-06)Transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) techniques are based on the external application of low-intensity electrical current to the brain. The external current can modulate cortical excitability by depolarizing or ...
