Scala et al. (2021) used Patch-seq on >1,300 mouse motor cortex (M1) neurons to show that broad transcriptomic families (Vip, Pvalb, Sst) had distinct non-overlapping morpho-electric phenotypes, but individual t-types within a family were not well separated in morpho-electric space, indicating continuous phenotypic variation within VIP and other subclasses.
