Model identification of neural encoding is an accessible system for the analysis of neural data that allows identifying and characterizing arbitrary relationships between neural activity and task-related variables such as behavior, stimuli, or internal states.

A practical toolbox for application of Granger causality inference to calcium imaging data identifies strong driver neurons in the locus of the mesencephalic locomoter region in larval zebrafish.

Complex and distributed plasticity processes are revealed by a functional and pharmacological analysis of visual habituation learning in larval zebrafish.

An analysis of vestibular projection neurons lacking their motor neuron partners resolves outstanding controversies for whether and how motor neurons shape vestibulo-ocular reflex circuit assembly.

Interaction of human embryonic stem cells (hESC) with human amniotic epithelial cells (hAEC) confers hESC a pluripotent potential that resembles the anteriorized epiblast, which is predisposed to form the neural ectoderm.

The collective action of six transcription factors selects and activates the regulatory regions of the HSN serotonergic neuron effector genes constituting a signature that can be used for the novo identification of HSN expressed genes.

A single-cell transcriptomic resource of the early chick epiblast from mid-gastrulation through neurulation highlighting emergence of the neural plate border territory, with emphasis on neural crest specification.

The location of neurons responsible for increasing the breathing rate upon detecting elevated levels of CO₂ in the blood has been pinpointed to the retrotrapezoid nucleus in the brainstem.

Genetic studies in mice identify the transcription factor MafB as a potent regulator of specific features of the synapses underlying hearing.

TADR (torn and diminished rhabdomeres)-dependent histidine transporting is required for de novo synthesis of histamine and for maintaining synaptic transmission of photoreceptor neurons in Drosophila.
