This study used neuroimaging to show a ventral putamen-centered open-loop circuit linking emotions and movement in humans. Contextual incentives influence which motor circuit is activated, shedding light on paradoxical kinesia in Parkinson's Disease.
We modelled extracellular diffusion in super-resolved images of live brain tissue neuropil. We found that extracellular space geometry shapes local diffusion and this has functional implications for signaling arising from synaptic spill-over.
This methods paper outlines silencing transposable elements in hiPSCs using CRISPRi. Describes gRNA design, validation via multiome approach. Enables functional studies on TE transcription in hiPSC models.
