摘要: Studies of the model systems spinal cord and brainstem reveal molecular, genetic, cellular mechanisms that are critical for network behavioral functions in nervous system. Recent experiments establish importance neurogenetics revealing properties. Breakthroughs utilize direct visualization neuronal activity structure provide new insights. Major discoveries plasticity contribute to basic neuroscience and, addition, have promising therapeutic implications.
