The paper investigates how active and passive whisker deflections are represented in thalamic nuclei of awake mice, finding distinct response patterns in VPM and POm.

This study creates a neuronal in vitro model of Fabry disease to investigate small fibre neuropathy mechanisms, finding Gb3 accumulation, altered ion channel function, and mitochondrial trafficking issues.

This study shows that layer 5 and 6 neurons in the primary somatosensory cortex modulate sensory gain and nociceptive behavior in opposite ways.

This study maps trans-collicular pathways in mice, revealing how somatosensory and motor cortical signals integrate in the superior colliculus through excitatory and inhibitory pathways.
