Barrels by the sea: Barrels XX meeting report.

The 20th annual Barrels meeting brought together researchers who utilize behavioral, physiological, anatomical, and molecular techniques to understand the structure and function of the barrel system. Barrels XX featured talks on the role inhibition has in shaping cortical responses within the barrel system, the molecular cues that influence the development of the whisker-to-barrel system, and t...

Barrels XXVII meeting report: Barrels in the monument city.

The 27th annual Barrels meeting highlighted the latest advances in this rapidly growing field. The Barrels meeting annually focuses on the role of the posterior medial thalamus in somatosensation, dendritic processing, and the cortical dynamics involved during touch perception. Speakers utilized diverse molecular, physiological, computational techniques to understand the development, sensory pr...

An ocean full of BARRELS: Barrels XXVI meeting report.

The 26th annual Barrels meeting was convened on the campus of the University of California San Diego, not far from the shores of the Pacific Ocean. The meeting focused on three main themes: the structure and function of the thalamic reticular nucleus, the neurovasculature system and its role in brain metabolism, and the origins and functions of cortical GABAergic interneurons. In addition to th...

Barrels come of age: Barrels XXI meeting report.

The twenty-first annual Barrels meeting, sponsored by NINDS, was held on 12-14 November 2008 on the campus of Johns Hopkins University, near the site of the original discovery of barrels almost 40 years ago. The longest running satellite meeting to the Society for Neuroscience Annual Meeting focuses on the development, physiology, and behavior of the rodent whisker-to-barrel sensorimotor system...
