Discovery and characterization of plateau potentials in cortical neurons of awake mice
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-09)Plateau potentials are large calcium-dependent regenerative depolarizations that support burst firing and facilitate behavioral time scale synaptic plasticity (BTSP) in the hippocampus. Despite substantial progress in our ... -
Comprehensive laboratory studies of organic oxidation across a range of photochemical ages and peroxy radical conditions
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-09)Reactive organic carbon (ROC), defined as all volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and particulate organic carbon except methane, is the largest source of reactive emissions in the atmosphere and therefore plays a central ... -
Structural characterization and antibiotic development for the Neisseria gonorrhoeae class Ia ribonucleotide reductase
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-09)Ribonucleotide reductases (RNRs) are essential enzymes that catalyze the reduction of ribonucleotides to deoxyribonucleotides, a critical step in DNA biosynthesis and repair. Class Ia RNRs, found in eukaryotes and many ...
