The paper investigates phenotypic diversity and cell-type-specific calcium dynamics in rat fentanyl self-administration, identifying sex differences and addiction risk phenotypes.

The paper investigates inhibitory deficits in the hippocampal CA2 region of a mouse model of temporal lobe epilepsy, identifying reduced cholecystokinin-expressing interneurons and impaired inhibition.

This study investigates the role of hippocampal CA2 region in seizure generation in a mouse model of temporal lobe epilepsy, finding that enhanced excitability and reduced inhibition in CA2 contribute to seizure activity.

The paper identifies a genetic basis for molecular asymmetry at vertebrate electrical synapses in zebrafish, showing that two Connexins function presynaptically and postsynaptically, respectively, and are required for escape responses.
