Preferential transduction of parvalbumin-expressing cortical neurons by AAV-mDLX5/6 vectors.

A major goal of modern neuroscience is to understand the functions of the varied neuronal types that comprise the mammalian brain. Toward this end, some types of neurons can be targeted and manipulated with enhancer-bearing AAV vectors. These vectors hold great promise to advance basic and translational neuroscience, but to realize this potential, their selectivity must be characterized.

Graph-Based Analysis of Visual Scanning Patterns: A Developmental Study on Green and Normal Images.

The present study investigated the visual scanning pattern of children with typical development in three different age groups(4-6,6-8,8-10 years old). We used a data set from one related research, which included images with different low-level features: Green and Normal. This study analyzed age-associated inter-individual differences and was intended to show that graph profiling combined with a fixation time approach could help us to better understand the developmental visual pattern.
