The state of the brain and body constantly varies on rapid and slow timescales. These
variations contribute to the apparent noisiness of sensory responses at both the neural and the …

The central goal of this manuscript is to survey our present knowledge of how cortical interneuron
subtypes are generated. To achieve this, we will first define what is meant by subtype …

In this review, we explore how contextual modulations of sensory processing are implemented
within the local cortical circuit. We focus on contextual influences of global arousal state (…

Diverse subsets of cortical interneurons have vital roles in higher-order brain functions. To
investigate how this diversity is generated, here we used single-cell RNA sequencing to …

Spontaneous and sensory-evoked cortical activity is highly state-dependent, yet relatively little
is known about transitions between distinct waking states. Patterns of activity in mouse V1 …

Olfactory bulb (OB) interneurons are a heterogeneous population produced beginning in
embryogenesis and continuing through adulthood. Understanding how this diversity arises will …

Recent success in identifying gene-regulatory elements in the context of recombinant adeno-associated
virus vectors has enabled cell-type-restricted gene expression. However, within …

We describe the role of Sox6 in cortical interneuron development, from a cellular to a behavioral
level. We identify Sox6 as a protein expressed continuously within MGE-derived cortical …

Connectivity in the developing hippocampus displays a functional organization particularly
effective in supporting network synchronization, as it includes superconnected hub neurons. …

Although previous work identified transcription factors crucial for the specification and migration
of parvalbumin (PV)-expressing and somatostatin (SST)-expressing interneurons, the …
