Review
New
Jerusalem, Israel. In Mov Disord, Apr 2013

Review
Sagamihara, Japan. In Dev Growth Differ, 2013
Expression and modulation of NR2B subunit-containing N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors in the HDCo cells are crucial for plastic changes in this circuit as well as the process of visual imprinting.
