The birthdate of a neuron, and its tangential location in the ventricular zone, can serve as markers that predict its normal laminar fate and pattern of connectivity.
The current pattern of connectivity indicates that uncoupling exists between actual management areas and the genetic commonality within this metapopulation.
Mapping the pattern of connectivity between neurons is widely regarded to be critical for understanding the nervous system.
Because of the profound effects which experience has upon the developing nervous system3, a question of considerable interest has been the role which the functional use of these developing synapses might play in determining the final pattern of connectivity.
Previous neuroimaging studies have generally assessed functional connectivity by averaging activity within localized 'seed' regions into a single variable, which implicitly assumes that all voxels within the 'seed' region share a common pattern of connectivity.
We exploit the fact that cortical regions can be characterized by the unique pattern of connectivity, the so-called connectivity fingerprint.
Additional analysis showed an asymmetrical pattern of connectivity (right > left) in fronto-parietal regions associated with sustained attention, supporting the right-lateralization of this function.
We show that Hox transcription-factor-dependent programs in MNs are essential in establishing the central pattern of connectivity within the ventral spinal cord.
We found that OFF-αRGCs form synapses across the full depth of the retinorecipient SC before undergoing lamina-specific arbor retraction and synapse elimination to arrive at their mature, restricted pattern of connectivity.
Mark the villain's whereabouts in successive scenes, collate the results from a host of cerebral Sam Spades, and a pattern of connectivity should emerge.On March 11th the connectome games will be unveiled at the Max Planck Science Gallery in Berlin.
The pattern of connectivity observed fits a classic Wright continuum model and the negative correlation between restriction to gene flow (FST) and migration rate (m) responds closely to theoretical expectations.
