Molecular signals from chloroplasts can synergistically interact with the plant hormone, abscisic acid (ABA), to regulate non-canonical signaling pathways mediating fundamental cellular processes including stomatal closure, seed dormancy and germination.

Recordings in freely-moving rats show that hippocampal dorsal CA1 pyramidal cells signal only spatial information, even in a non-spatial task such as trace eyeblink conditioning.

Combined optogenetics and electrophysiology in vivo identified the cellular substrate of hippocampal drive that initiates the oscillatory entrainment of prefrontal cortex in neonatal mice.

Neurons in the mouse hippocampus, known as place cells, surprisingly show movie-fields, where they reliably encode distinct segments of a black-and-white, silent movie, even without any task demand or rewards.
