Attention: the claustrum
The claustrum is a mysterious thin sheet of neurons lying between the insular cortex and the
striatum. It is reciprocally connected with almost all cortical areas, including motor …

The anatomy and physiology of claustrum-cortex interactions
The claustrum is one of the most widely connected regions of the forebrain, yet its function
has remained obscure, largely due to the experimentally challenging nature of targeting this …

Neural activity in the mouse claustrum in a cross-modal sensory selection task
The claustrum, a subcortical nucleus forming extensive connections with the neocortex, has
been implicated in sensory selection. Sensory-evoked claustrum activity is thought to …

The claustrum supports resilience to distraction
A barrage of information constantly assaults our senses, of which only a fraction is relevant
at any given point in time. However, the neural circuitry supporting the suppression of …

Organization of the connections between claustrum and cortex in the mouse
The connections between the claustrum and the cortex in mouse are systematically
investigated with adeno‐associated virus (AAV), an anterograde viral tracer. We first define …

Input–output organization of the mouse claustrum
Progress in determining the precise organization and function of the claustrum (CLA) has
been hindered by the difficulty in reliably targeting these neurons. To overcome this, we …

Cell-type-specific D1 dopamine receptor modulation of projection neurons and interneurons in the prefrontal cortex
Dopamine modulation in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) mediates diverse effects on neuronal
physiology and function, but the expression of dopamine receptors at subpopulations of …

The DTI connectivity of the human claustrum
The origin, structure, and function of the claustrum, as well as its role in neural computation,
have remained a mystery since its discovery in the 17th century. Assessing the in vivo …

Efferents of anterior cingulate areas 24a and 24b and midcingulate areas 24aʹ and 24bʹ in the mouse
The anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), constituted by areas 25, 32, 24a and 24b in rodents,
plays a major role in cognition, emotion and pain. In a previous study, we described the …
