A network of electrically coupled interneurons drives synchronized inhibition in neocortex
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 ...

Bypassing interneurons: inhibition in neocortex
Inhibitory circuits in the neocortex used to be so simple. Although it's true that the neocortex has a mystifying assortment of inhibitory interneurons 1, most of the fast synaptic connections ...

Slow brain waves and the neocortex: Why deep sleep is helpful for memory
According to the study, the slow waves make the neocortex, the location of long-term memory, especially receptive to information. The findings could help to optimize the treatment approaches that ...

Why We Lie, And The Neuroscience Behind It
The more white matter (see my blog The Truth About How Your Brain Gets Smarter)—or some might even say the more intelligent the neocortex—the greater potential a person has to lie. Bella ...
