The Integrative Function of Silent Synapses on Subplate Neurons in Cortical Development and Dysfunction

The thalamocortical circuit is of central importance in relaying information to the cortex. In development, subplate neurons (SPNs) form an integral part of the thalamocortical pathway. These early born cortical neurons are the first neurons to receive thalamic inputs and excite neurons in the corti...
