Hippocampome.org, a resource for subicular neuron types and beyond.

ABSTRACT: To establish the relationship between circuit organization and information processing, many neuroscientists find it useful to reason in terms of neuron types. Hippocampome.org uses axonal and dendritic morphology as a foundational approach to classify neurons in the rodent hippocampal formation, including dentate gyrus, Cornu Ammonis, subiculum, and entorhinal cortex. For each identified neuron type, this open access knowledge base annotates essential properties, such as main neurotransmitter, membrane biophysics, firing patterns, molecular expression, and cell counts. Moreover, Hippocampome.org quantifies circuitry in terms of directional connection probabilities and synaptic signals between interacting neuron types. All properties are directly linked to peer reviewed experimental evidenc
