Seq-ing the Circuit Logic of the Basal Ganglia

Ricardo Hernandez-Martinez et al. Trends Neurosci. 2017 Jun.

Abstract

Recently, Wallace et al. (2017) provide an unprecedented view of the layers of molecular, cellular and circuit complexity involving a basal ganglia output structure, the entopeduncular nucleus. Their findings lend order to chaos by revealing how molecularly and functionally defined cellular subsets are organized into distinct circuitry.
