Stimulation modulates gene-linked cell assemblies in the human brain - Nature

Describes an ex vivo platform linking microelectrode stimulation with single-nucleus genomics to map how cortical stimulation reshapes cell assemblies and gene programs.

Key Takeaways
  • Yet the biological mechanisms that underlie its effects remain largely unexplored in humans
  • To directly investigate the mechanisms of neuromodulation elicited by human brain stimulation
  • 2: Cell assemblies are activated and strengthened after stimulation
