Abstract

Basal Ganglia Circuits: What's Now and Next?

Highlights

  • It is practically impossible to cover the whole range of new arrivals to the field with just one Special Issue, my feeling is that with all things considered we have managed to prepare a body of literature with an adequate balance between solicited and unsolicited contributions, representing a good reference for those trying to get started with the basal ganglia, PhD students

  • With regards to invited contributions, bearing in mind that we are dealing with basal ganglia circuits, a number of topics have been addressed in-depth

  • Since striatal interneurons have often been neglected in the basal ganglia model, there are two contributions devoted to this topic: a review dealing with cholinergic interneurons (Bonsi et al, 2011) and another review focusing on all different types of GABAergic striatal interneurons (Tepper et al, 2010)
