Glutamatergic synaptic integration of locomotion speed via septoentorhinal projections
Nature Neuroscience 20, 16 (2017). doi:10.1038/nn.4447 Authors: Daniel Justus, Dennis Dalügge, Stefanie Bothe, Falko Fuhrmann, Christian Hannes, Hiroshi Kaneko, Detlef Friedrichs, Liudmila Sosulina, Inna Schwarz, David Anthony Elliott, Susanne Schoch, Frank Bradke, Martin Karl Schwarz & Stefan Remy The medial septum and diagonal band of Broca (MSDB) send glutamatergic axons to medial entorhinal cortex (MEC). We found that this pathway provides speed-correlated input to several MEC cell-types in layer 2/3. The speed signal is integrated most effectively by pyramidal cells but also excites stellate cells and...

When size matters: CHD8 in autism
Nature Neuroscience 19, 1430 (2016). doi:10.1038/nn.4431 Authors: Martin W Breuss & Joseph G Gleeson Recent models studying loss of the mouse homolog of the autism-associated gene CHD8 show altered Wnt signaling, cell fate and proliferation. How do these findings shape our understanding of this disease? (Source: Nature Neuroscience)

Rare variants are common in schizophrenia
Nature Neuroscience 19, 1426 (2016). doi:10.1038/nn.4422 Author: Jacob Gratten A large DNA sequencing study of schizophrenia finds more evidence that rare inherited coding mutations across many genes contribute to risk of the disorder. This has important implications for geneticists and neuroscientists alike. (Source: Nature Neuroscience)
