[HTML][HTML] Shifts in coding properties and maintenance of information transmission during adaptation in barrel cortex
Neuronal responses to ongoing stimulation in many systems change over time, or “adapt.”
Despite the ubiquity of adaptation, its effects on the stimulus information carried by neurons …

Ca2+ signaling in dendritic spines
Dendritic spines are cellular microcompartments that are isolated from their parent dendrites
and neighboring spines. Recently, imaging studies of spine Ca 2+ dynamics have revealed …

[PDF][PDF] Rapid development and plasticity of layer 2/3 maps in rat barrel cortex in vivo
EA Stern, M Maravall, K Svoboda - Neuron, 2001 - cell.com
Cortical synaptic circuitry develops rapidly in the second postnatal week, simultaneous with
experience-dependent turnover of dendritic spines. To relate the emergence of sensory …

Lineage-specific laminar organization of cortical GABAergic interneurons
In the cerebral cortex, pyramidal cells and interneurons are generated in distant germinal
zones, and so the mechanisms that control their precise assembly into specific microcircuits …

[PDF][PDF] Diverse and temporally precise kinetic feature selectivity in the VPm thalamic nucleus
The thalamo-cortical pathway is the crucial sensory gateway into the cerebral cortex. We
aimed to determine the nature of the tactile information encoded by neurons in the whisker …

A stochastic framework of neurogenesis underlies the assembly of neocortical cytoarchitecture
The cerebral cortex contains multiple areas with distinctive cytoarchitectonic patterns, but the
cellular mechanisms underlying the emergence of this diversity remain unclear. Here, we …

Role of precise spike timing in coding of dynamic vibrissa stimuli in somatosensory thalamus
…, S Panzeri, M Maravall… - Journal of …, 2007 - journals.physiology.org
Rats discriminate texture by whisking their vibrissae across the surfaces of objects. This
process induces corresponding vibrissa vibrations, which must be accurately represented by …

Coordinated population activity underlying texture discrimination in rat barrel cortex
…, JM Sorando, ME Diamond, M Maravall - Journal of …, 2013 - Soc Neuroscience
Rodents can robustly distinguish fine differences in texture using their whiskers, a capacity
that depends on neuronal activity in primary somatosensory “barrel” cortex. Here we explore …
