GABAergic inhibitory neurons fundamentally shape the activity and plasticity of cortical circuits. Subset of these neurons contains somatostatin (SOM); these cells play crucial roles in neuroplasticity, learning and memory in many brain areas including the hippocampus, and are implicated in neuropsychiatric diseases and neurodegenerative disorders. Two main types of SOM-containing cells in area CA1 of the hippocampus are oriens-lacunosum-moleculare (OLM) and hippocampo-septal cells. These cell types show many similarities in their soma-dendritic architecture, but they have different axonal tar
