GABAergic Synapses Between Auditory Efferent Neurons and Type II Spiral Ganglion Afferent Neurons in the Mouse Cochlea Background Introduction The complexity and precision of the auditory system have always been important topics in neuroscience research. As a key component of the auditory system, the interactions between cells and neurons within th...

Background Introduction The brain is composed of different subtypes of neurons, which form complex neural networks through local and long-range synaptic connections. Understanding the functions of these neural networks requires knowledge of their connection patterns (projectome) and neuronal dynamics. Although advancements in mesoscale connectomics...

Differences in Coupling Between Cortical Networks Related to Arousal in Neural Activity and Hemodynamics Academic Background In the absence of specific sensory inputs or behavioral tasks, the brain generates structured activity patterns. This organized activity is modulated by the state of arousal. The relationship between arousal and cortical acti...
