Abstract
The molecular dynamics associated with neuronal activation patterns in vivo are unclear. Lacar et al. perform single-nuclei RNA-sequencing of hippocampal neurons from mice exposed to a novel environment, and identify large-scale transcriptome changes in individual neurons associated with the experience.
