S. Rodrigues, M. Desroches, M. Krupa, J.M. Cortes, T.J. Sejnowski and A.B. Ali. Time-coded neurotransmitter release at excitatory and inhibitory synapses. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 113:E1108-15, 2016 [pdf] Communication between neurons at chemical synapses is regulated by hundreds of different proteins that control the release of neurotransmitter that is packaged in vesicles, transported to an active zone, and released when an input spike occurs. Neurotransmitter can also be released […]

Julia M. Kroos, Ibai Diez, Jesus M. Cortes, Sebastiano Stramaglia and Luca Gerardo Giorda. Geometry shapes propagation: assessing the presence and absence of cortical symmetries through a computational model of cortical spreading depression. Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience 10:6, 2016 [pdf] Cortical spreading depression (CSD), a depolarization wave which originates in the visual cortex and travels towards the frontal lobe, has been suggested to be one neural correlate of aura migraine.
