Ascending and descending cortico-cortical inputs are stronger on projection neurons that project back to the source of the inputs, forming selective interareal loops in deep but not superficial cortical layers.

Prenatal stress is transmitted to infant development through cortisol, which imparts sex-specific effects on the development and connectivity of the amygdalae.

Models of cortico-cerebellar connectivity are quantified using task-based fMRI, and demonstrate that convergent rather than sparse inputs best characterize cortico-cerebellar connectivity, namely, cerebellar areas linked to cognition receive the highest convergence of cortical inputs.

Reconstruction of axonal morphologies based on extracellular action potentials enables label-free electrical visualization of axonal conduction trajectories, providing a noninvasive method for functional profiling of cortical and spinal axons.

Activating deeper layers of the cortex using cortical electrical stimulation triggers the activation of thalamic nuclei through trans-synaptic signaling, which can result in a range of complex responses that can be detected using EEG signals.

Socio-emotional behavioral intervention links to changes in the structure and function of hippocampal subfields, in particular CA1-3, and reductions in cortisol levels in healthy adults.

Maturation of cortical network dynamics is characterized by a nadir that signals the shift from local, loosely correlated, prominently sensory-driven patterns to internally organized, spatially distributed, and temporally precise activity.

Computational models of musical structure reveal cortical encoding of pitch and rhythm expectations during naturalistic music listening.

Spontaneous fluctuations in pupil-indexed arousal shape human cortical dynamics in a frequency-dependent and spatially diverse manner.

The flow of neural activity across the cortico-cerebellar loop enables mice to reach for objects with skill and precision.
