Journal ArticleDOI

Monosynaptic Restriction of Transsynaptic Tracing from Single, Genetically Targeted Neurons

TL;DR: A transsynaptic tracer that crosses only one synaptic step is presented, unambiguously identifying cells directly presynaptic to the starting population, and should enable a far more detailed understanding of neural connectivity than has previously been possible.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic dissection of neural circuits.

TL;DR: Progress in the genetic analysis of neural circuits is reviewed and directions for future research and development are discussed, including genetic approaches to nongenetic systems such as primates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic Dissection of an Amygdala Microcircuit That Gates Conditioned Fear

TL;DR: Molecular genetic approaches are used to map the functional connectivity of a subpopulation of GABA-containing neurons, located in the lateral subdivision of the central amygdala (CEl), which express protein kinase C-δ (PKC- δ) and define an inhibitory microcircuit in CEl that gates CEm output to control the level of conditioned freezing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parallel processing strategies of the primate visual system

TL;DR: Multiple strategies including retinal tiling, hierarchical and parallel processing and modularity, defined spatially and by cell type-specific connectivity, are used by the visual system to recover the intricate detail of the authors' visual surroundings.
