Genetic influences on how the brain processes complex naturalistic stimuli can be traced back to inherited control over stable spatial and temporal features of brain function.

Genetic deletions in mouse models and human neuron co-cultures reveal that astrocytic neuroligins are dispensable for synapse formation and maintenance of normal astrocyte morphology, suggesting neuroligins serve alternative, unidentified roles.

Probiotic communities designed to inhibit a lung pathogen through niche exclusion show promise as a novel method of preventing respiratory infection.

Prolonged oxycodone abstinence strengthens paraventricular thalamus to nucleus accumbens shell glutamatergic transmission in both sexes, yet only females show enhanced relapse, dissociating shared synaptic plasticity from sex-specific relapse vulnerability.

Leiomodin 1 acts as a critical molecular switch during early muscle stem cell differentiation by sequestering the deacetylase SIRT1 in the cytoplasm to initiate the myogenic program.

Face-selective neural activity occurs concurrently across the human ventral occipito-temporal cortex, challenging traditional hierarchical models of visual object recognition where response latencies increase along the cortical hierarchy.

Heterogeneity in outcomes of differently located activating mutations of Notch indicates the need and potential for mutant specific targeting of Notch in cancer.
