Mapping the Anatomical basis for motor control of a single vibrissa muscle across Rat Brain
(2025-09-02)How does the cerebral cortex control a single muscle to orchestrate movement? Rabies virus was injected into the intrinsic muscle that protracts the rat C3 vibrissa. The retrograde transneuronal transport of rabies virus ... -
Modelling structure-function relationships from neurons to networks in the cerebral cortex
(2025-07-24)Using a multi-scale model based on extensive experimental data, I explored structure-function relationships in cortex. At a macro-scale, I used ANNs with cortical features to show that sparse connectivity enables efficient ... -
Organization principles of thalamocortical input onto deep-layer inhibitory neurons of the barrel cortex
(2024-02-28)Thalamus functions as the main route by which incoming sensory information reaches the cerebral cortex. Thalamic nuclei will receive input from the sensory receptors in the periphery and relay it to different areas in the ... -
Structural and functional principles of long-range connectivity in the rat vibrissal system
(2020-11-05)Pyramidal tract neurons (PTs) represent the major output cell type of the mammalian neocortex. Integrating feedforward thalamo-cortical (TC) and recurrent intracortical (IC) inputs with those from top down cortical-cortical ...
