Ji’s multilevel study on how auditory cortex processes sound onset and onset in parallel networks in out in Cell Reports. Fun local collaboration with Butts and Babadi lab at UMD.

Could silent connections in development actually do something and not be “just” precursors to AMPA connections? Our review of what silent cortical plate connections on subplate neurons could be doing in development is out. Read it here.

Aminah’s data on the cover: Colorful LSPS maps meet classic biocytin.

Use this method by the Babadi lab for extracting functional network dynamics by adaptive Granger causality analysis from calcium imaging or ephys data. Read it here in PNAS.

Our first venture into studying A1 during behavior shows that A1 activity encodes sensory information as well as decision making.

Read “Small networks Encode Decision-Making in Auditory Cortex” in Neuron. Great collaboration with Behtash Babadi.

“Neonatal Hypoxia-Ischemia Causes Functional Circuit Changes in Subplate Neurons”. Read it here in Cerebral Cortex

Great collaboration with McQuillen lab at UCSF (Mcquillen lab).

L2/3 of auditory cortex has distinct functional subcurcuits and sublaminar organization. Read Ying’s paper here.

Use this fast method developed in collaboration with the Losert lab to correct for motion. It is all described in Samira’s paper in Frontiers and code is on github. Send feedback!
