«In their study, Frank and collaborators used state - of - the art imaging techniques to relate the structural phenomenon of spine turnover with the formation of spine clusters in apical dendrites of retrosplenial cortex layer 5 pyramidal neurons. (dendrites.gr)
Then, the team inserted the organoids into cavities made in mice's retrosplenial cortex — a region critical for movement and spatial learning. (the-scientist.com)
Researchers looked at activity in excitatory neurons and somatostatin - expressing inhibitory neurons in the visual cortex and top - down inputs from the retrosplenial cortex (RSC) during associative learning to see how these affected the top - down and bottom - up processing — when perception begins with the senses.
