Looks fantastic! This is a tool that the field of circuit neuroscience has needed for a very long time 👌
ATLAS, a rationally designed transsynaptic tracer is out today! Plasmids will soon be available on

ATLAS: a rationally designed anterograde transsynaptic tracer - Nature Methods
ATLAS is a tool for circuit tracing, demonstrated here in rodents. It allows anterograde transsynaptic tracing, starting from genetically defined neurons.

Fantastic effort from my friend & colleague on how the highly diverse subpopulations of the spinal dorsal horn develop and organize themselves into a complex network that encodes somatosensory inputs.
If you want to predict functional organization, you must look at transcription factors first.

Check out my postdoc work at Ariel Levine’s lab, hot and fresh, describing how you build a dorsal horn!

A summary thread of our Cell Reports paper published last week. In brief, we found a novel activity for netrin1 in the developing spinal cord: it acts as a boundary, to limit Bmp signaling to the dorsal most spinal cord. 1/9 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Netrin1 patterns the dorsal spinal cord through modulation of Bmp signaling
We have identified an unexpected role for netrin1, a canonical axonal guidance cue, as a suppressor of bone morphogenetic protein (Bmp) signaling in t…
