Electrical coupling regulates layer 1 interneuron microcircuit formation in the neocortex

Electrical and chemical synapses coexist in neocortex interneurons. Here, Yao et al. show that during development, electrical and GABAergic chemical synapses form at the same time, and that this coupling synchronizes firing between layer 1 interneurons.
