Thank you @OliviaGieger for a nice report on our story.
The inhibitory cells’ development, diversity and abundance in the cortex is directed in part by pyramidal cells, a new preprint suggests. By @OliviaGieger.

Our findings demonstrate how pyramidal neurons guide the development of different interneuron subtypes. Biology never fails to amaze me - a profoundly intricate and adaptive journey culminating in exquisite precision. @GordFishell @artofbiology.
Cortical interneurons learn on the job! Speculated this was true a decade ago! @JJSherryWU and @artofbiology finally provide evidence!

Neurogliaform cells are probably the least studied type of interneurons. My dear lab mate @Su_hang_ has spearheaded the study performing in vivo two-photon imaging of these interneurons, capturing them in action during visual stimuli and locomotion.
A big shout out to @Su_hang_ for her amazing work with me and @LeenaAIbrahim , in identifying and studying the role of neurogliaform interneurons in V1 cortex. Come read about how these regulators of cortical function act in different cortical layers!

Thank you @elaine_sevier for being the best co-author, and to all the nice Northeastern coop students I work with. And thanks for @GordFishell who bought me a cake 🎂😉.
I’m very excited that my PhD work is out! Thank you so much to @GordFishell for all of your support and @JJSherryWU for being the best collaborator, both while I was in the lab and after I left. Check out our work here

These analyses provide insights into the vesicular release dynamics and discuss how the data support or disagree with the two competing hypotheses of multivesicular or uniquantal release from the hair cell ribbon synapse. Lead by Dr. Eric Young, who I deeply respect.

Wow, Crazy numbers!.
This single (!!!) LGN interneuron has 862 input and 626 output synapses and spans about half the visual field! O_O
