Development of thalamocortial connections in mouse barrel cortex: Role of subplate neurons. (360G-Wellcome-086362_Z_08_A)

£25,800

The overall aim is to understand the development of synaptic interactions in the early thalamus-subplate-layer 4 microcircuit of mouse barrel cortex. Two specific objectives have been identified: 1. To determine the developmental profile of synaptic function at three identified synapses within this microcircuit during early postnatal development, and 2. To test the hypothesis that spike timing-dependent plasticity can explain the developmental changes at these three synapses.
