Journal ArticleDOI

Neural mechanisms of transient neocortical beta rhythms: Converging evidence from humans, computational modeling, monkeys, and mice.

TL;DR: A new theory that accounts for the origin of spontaneous neocortical beta is presented and several predictions about optimal states for perceptual and motor performance are made to guide causal interventions to modulate beta for optimal function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intersection of diverse neuronal genomes and neuropsychiatric disease: The Brain Somatic Mosaicism Network

TL;DR: Genomic technologies, including advances in long-read, next-generation DNA sequencing technologies, single-cell genomics, and cutting-edge bioinformatics, can make it possible to determine the types and frequencies of somatic mutations within the human brain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Linked-read analysis identifies mutations in single-cell DNA-sequencing data.

TL;DR: Linked-read analysis is a method for analyzing single-cell DNA-sequencing data that accurately identifies somatic single-nucleotide variants by using read-level phasing with nearby germline variants, enabling the characterization of mutational signatures and estimation of somatic mutation rates in single cells.
