Advances in imaging techniques and molecular approaches have led to new findings on the role of neural activity during development. Gregg Wildenberg argues these findings challenge our notions about the rules governing critical periods. thetransmitter.org/critical-perio…

We've been working on this resource for months: A VISUAL GUIDE TO GENOME EDITORS. Learn how tools like Cas9, Cas13, prime editors, and Bridge editors work - with diagrams! We hope this becomes a valuable resource for the biology community and students.

Our study on the impact of altered serotonin (5-HT) signalling on developing sensory cortex is now live Nature Communications We use longitudinal in vivo imaging of 5-HT & neural activity to show that this neuromodulator is buffered in early life to promote bottom-up instruction.

A common computational and neural anomaly across mouse models of autism "Mice harboring mutations in Fmr1, Cntnap2 or Shank3B show a blunted update of priors during decision-making." nature.com/articles/s4159…

Structure–function coupling in the first month of life: Associations with age and attention "age is associated with “decoupling” of patterns of functional from structural connectivity in neonates" doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…

Inferring internal states across mice and monkeys using facial features "we identify, on a single-trial basis, a set of internal states that reliably predicts when the animals are going to react to the presented stimuli." nature.com/articles/s4146…

Our brain-to-voice synthesis brain-computer interface paper was published in nature today! This neuroprosthesis synthesized the voice of a man with ALS instantaneously, enabling him to ‘speak’ flexibly and modulate the prosody of his BCI-voice. 1/7 Paper: rdcu.be/eqH3C

Is criticality a unified setpoint of brain function?: cell.com/neuron/fulltex… "We perform a meta-analysis of 140 datasets published between 2003 and 2024. We find that a long-standing controversy is the product of a methodological choice with no bearing on underlying dynamics."

Activity-dependent development of synaptic circuits mediates direction selectivity in an axis-specific manner "...spontaneous activity selectively influences the formation of precise wiring essential for motion detection along the horizontal axis." cell.com/cell-reports/f…
