Functional Development and Plasticity of Parvalbumin Cells in Visual Cortex: Role of Thalamocortical Input

Unlike principal excitatory neurons, cortical interneurons comprise a diverse group of distinct subtypes. They can be classified by their morphology, molecular content, developmental origins, electrophysiological properties and specific connectivity patterns. The parvalbumin-positive \((PV^+)\), lar...
