Song Y, Patterson W, Bull C, Hwang N, Deangelis A, Lay C, et al.
Conf Proc IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc . 2007 Feb; 2004:4053-6. PMID: 17271189
An ultra-low power analog CMOS chip and a silicon based microelectrode array have been fully integrated to a microminiaturized "neuroport" for brain implantable neuroengineering applications. The CMOS IC included preamplifier...

Phys Rev Lett . 2004 Nov; 93(15):158102. PMID: 15524944
Interaction between an electronic and a biological circuit has been investigated for a pair of electrically connected nonlinear oscillators, with a spontaneously oscillating olivary neuron as the single-cell biological element....

Neuron . 2001 Aug; 31(3):477-85. PMID: 11516403
Inhibitory interneurons often generate synchronous activity as an emergent property of their interconnections. To determine the role of electrical synapses in such activity, we constructed mice expressing histochemical reporters in...

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2000 Nov; 97(23):12864-8. PMID: 11058162
Cortical maps express experience-dependent plasticity. However, the underlying cellular mechanisms remain unclear. We have recently shown that sensory deprivation results in large changes of the short-term dynamics of excitatory synapses...

Beierlein M, Gibson J, Connors B
Nat Neurosci . 2000 Aug; 3(9):904-10. PMID: 10966621
The neocortex has at least two different networks of electrically coupled inhibitory interneurons: fast-spiking (FS) and low-threshold-spiking (LTS) cells. Agonists of metabotropic glutamate or acetylcholine receptors induced synchronized spiking and...

Gibson J, Beierlein M, Connors B
Nature . 1999 Nov; 402(6757):75-9. PMID: 10573419
Inhibitory interneurons are critical to sensory transformations, plasticity and synchronous activity in the neocortex. There are many types of inhibitory neurons, but their synaptic organization is poorly understood. Here we...

Epilepsia . 1999 Nov; 40(11):1499-506. PMID: 10565575
Purpose: The neocortex can generate various forms of epileptiform activity, including one that depends on N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-type glutamate receptors (NMDARs), and another dependent on non-NMDA-type (AMPA) glutamate receptors (AMPARs). Previous...

Nature . 1999 Aug; 400(6742):367-71. PMID: 10432115
Many representations of sensory stimuli in the neocortex are arranged as topographic maps. These cortical maps are not fixed, but show experience-dependent plasticity. For instance, sensory deprivation causes the cortical...
