Latest from the lab: Laura Haetzel finds that excitatory transmission from auditory thalamus to tail of striatum is accompanied by a sparse inhibitory projection. This allows for state-dependent control of striatal output. www.cell.com/iscience/ful...

Inhibitory inputs from thalamus promote resilient spiking in tail of striatum
