The cerebellum and ventral tegmental area interact during unexpected omissions of aversive outcomes in humans, supporting a role for reward-like prediction error signaling in fear extinction learning.
ACC contains specialized neurons that sustain rich action-relevant information after action execution, enabling prolonged action monitoring, and supporting complex associative linking across events.
Absence of EML3 in mice leads to delayed embryonic development, small size, perinatal lethality, and the over-migration of neuroblasts due to a defective pial basement membrane.
Alphaherpesviruses hijack host epigenetic regulation by promoting HDAC1/2 nuclear export and degradation to activate the DNA damage response, revealing new antiviral therapeutic targets.
Funding mechanisms impact the cost effectiveness of the science conducted, as extramural NIH grants to universities excel at producing papers and citations, while intramural NIH hiring more effectively translates to clinical impact.
