The rhythmic patterns of activity that underlie breathing are generated and coordinated by distinct populations of neurons within the brainstem.

Histone deacetylase 1 (Hdac1) plays a crucial role in maintaining differential histone acetylation states of enhancers in various germ layers and regulates the transcriptional program both temporally and spatially.

Touch-mediated social interactions in human females elicited endogenous oxytocin and brain responses in a covariant manner, and these changes were modulated by the familiarity of the person delivering touch as well as the recent history of social interaction.

Laminin gamma1-dependent basement membranes are required for multiple aspects of olfactory system development in zebrafish, including the maintenance of placode tissue shape and the growth of the olfactory axons.

A novel single-objective light-sheet microscope with unparalleled spatiotemporal resolution enables imaging and optical manipulation of diverse biological specimens and processes.

The tip-link complex of the hair cell is mechanically tuned along the tonotopic axis of the cochlea.

Increasing PI(4,5)P2 on a sub-second timescale using a novel, membrane-permeant UV activatable PI(4,5)P2 molecule augments exocytosis which requires the PI(4,5)P2 interacting exocytotic proteins Munc13-2 and synaptotagmin-1.

CCK released from the neural projections from the rhinal cortex to the motor cortex modulates neural plasticity and facilitates motor skill learning.

For the first time, a molecular mechanism is identified, for experimental acceleration and deceleration (rejuvenation) of sperm epigenetic aging.

A novel form of hippocampal synaptic plasticity is expressed by a change in channel function of GluA3-containing AMPA-receptors.
