DOI: 10.1016/j.conb.2017.03.016
Abstract: The synaptic homeostasis hypothesis (SHY) states that wake brings about a net overall increase in synaptic strength in many brain circuits that needs to be renormalized by sleep. I will review recent studies that were… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuron.2018.06.029
Abstract: The mammalian suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) functions as a master circadian pacemaker, integrating environmental input to align physiological and behavioral rhythms to local time cues. Approximately 10% of SCN neurons express vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP); however,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroscience.2017.12.047
Abstract: Defined medium organotypic cultures (DMOTC) containing spinal dorsal horn neurons are especially useful in studying the etiology and pharmacology of chronic pain. We made whole-cell recordings from neurons in acutely isolated mouse spinal cord slices… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/access.2023.3246950
Abstract: Myoelectric-based motor intent detection is typically used to interface with assistive devices. However, the intent detection performance is sensitive to interference of electromyogram (EMG) signals. Recently, EMG signals are decomposed into motor units (MU) firing… read more here.

DOI: 10.1142/s0129065719500175
Abstract: We employed high-density microelectrode arrays to investigate spontaneous firing patterns of neurons in brain circuits of the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) in mice. We recorded from over 150 neurons for 10min in each of eight… read more here.

DOI: 10.1152/jn.00016.2023
Abstract: The ventrolateral periaqueductal gray (vlPAG) is a key brain area within the descending pain modulatory pathway and an important target for opioid-induced analgesia. The vlPAG contains heterogeneous neurons with respect to neurotransmitter content, receptor and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1161/hypertensionaha.122.19754
Abstract: Background: We tested the hypothesis that women who develop gestational hypertension (GH) display abnormal sympathetic action potential (AP) discharge patterns during late pregnancy (32–36 weeks), both at supine rest and during postural stress. Methods: Thirteen… read more here.

Electrical coupling controls dimensionality and chaotic firing of inferior olive neurons

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.1008075
Abstract: We previously proposed, on theoretical grounds, that the cerebellum must regulate the dimensionality of its neuronal activity during motor learning and control to cope with the low firing frequency of inferior olive neurons, which form… read more here.
