GABAergic interneurons play crucial roles in the regulation of neural activity in the cerebral cortex. In this Dual Lecture, Prof Oscar Marín and Prof Beatriz Rico will discuss several aspects of the formation of inhibitory circuits in the mammalian cerebral cortex. Prof. Marín will provide an overview of the mechanisms regulating the generation of the remarkable diversity of GABAergic interneurons and their ultimate numbers. Prof. Rico will describe the molecular logic through which specific pyramidal cell-interneuron circuits are established in the cerebral cortex, and how alterations in some of these connectivity motifs might be liked to disease.
