Selective synapse formation in a retinal motion-sensitive circuit is orchestrated by starburst amacrine cells, which use homotypic interactions to initiate formation of a dendritic scaffold that recruits projections from circuit partners.

A compact neural network can form various associative memories that are encoded in a distributed manner, where each neuron stores different components of the memory.

Applying computational modeling to quantify threat learning processes uncovers how variations in these conserved learning processes relate to anxiety severity and the neuroanatomical substrates moderating these associations.

Minian is an open-source analysis pipeline for calcium imaging data that enhances usability with low memory demands and transparency with user-friendly interactive visualizations.

The localization of Rad53 cell cycle checkpoint kinase to many gene promoters and the dynamic changes in response to replication stress suggests that the kinase may coordinate genome stability and gene expression.

A small population of lateral hypothalamic neurons detects pain and can be activated to suppress pain-related behavioral adaptations and the unpleasantness associated with pain in mice.

A new measure for cross-frequency coupling assesses phase-amplitude coupling and amplitude-amplitude coupling, and accounts for confounding factors such as low-frequency amplitude fluctuations, using a flexible statistical modeling approach.

Gut microbial signatures of domestication parallel those of industrialization, implicating shared ecological drivers.

Precisely sequenced patterns of neuronal activity associated with the production of a skilled behavior begin and end as part of orchestrated activity across functionally diverse populations of cortical premotor neurons.

A modified viral strategy reveals that ventral tegmental area dopamine cells receive substantial inputs from local sources, including distributed GABAergic and serotonergic inputs from the midbrain as well as extensive inputs from other midbrain dopamine cells.
