Population imaging of neural activity in awake behaving mice

…, OA Shemesh, C Straub, HJ Gritton, MF Romano… - Nature, 2019 - nature.com
A longstanding goal in neuroscience has been to image membrane voltage across a population
of individual neurons in an awake, behaving mammal. Here we describe a genetically …

Unique contributions of parvalbumin and cholinergic interneurons in organizing striatal networks during movement

HJ Gritton, WM Howe, MF Romano… - Nature …, 2019 - nature.com
Striatal parvalbumin (PV) and cholinergic interneurons (CHIs) are poised to play major roles
in behavior by coordinating the networks of medium spiny cells that relay motor output. …

[PDF][PDF] Precision calcium imaging of dense neural populations via a cell-body-targeted calcium indicator

…, D Goodwin, OT Celiker, HJ Gritton, MF Romano… - Neuron, 2020 - cell.com
Methods for one-photon fluorescent imaging of calcium dynamics can capture the activity of
hundreds of neurons across large fields of view at a low equipment complexity and cost. In …

[HTML][HTML] Opposing roles for striatonigral and striatopallidal neurons in dorsolateral striatum in consolidating new instrumental actions

…, RM O'Connor, S Ghoshal, MF Romano… - Nature …, 2021 - nature.com
Comparatively little is known about how new instrumental actions are encoded in the brain.
Using whole-brain c-Fos mapping, we show that neural activity is increased in the anterior …

Testicular torsion: epidemiological risk factors for orchiectomy in pediatric and adult patients

GM Greear, MF Romano, MH Katz, R Munarriz… - International Journal of …, 2021 - nature.com
Testicular torsion is a known cause of morbidity in pediatric patients, but the burden in the
adult population is poorly understood. We sought to determine the incidence of testicular …

Large language models in neurology research and future practice

MF Romano, LC Shih, IC Paschalidis, R Au… - Neurology, 2023 - AAN Enterprises
Recent advancements in generative artificial intelligence, particularly using large language
models (LLMs), are gaining increased public attention. We provide a perspective on the …

[PDF][PDF] Deep learning for risk-based stratification of cognitively impaired individuals

MF Romano, X Zhou, AR Balachandra, MF Jadick… - iScience, 2023 - cell.com
Quantifying the risk of progression to Alzheimer's disease (AD) could help identify persons
who could benefit from early interventions. We used data from the Alzheimer's Disease …
