Optical imaging from macaque monkeys performing a detection task reveals the contribution of neural populations in V1 to the phenomenon of camouflage, where detectability decreases with target-background similarity.

Prolactin suppresses the ovarian cycles of lactating mice by directly repressing the activity of a cell population known as kisspeptin neurons.

Locus coeruleus responses to salient environmental stimuli drive increases in hippocampal dopamine that are important for long-term memory formation during trace fear conditioning.

The enduring impacts of early-life seizures on cognition and behavior are not attributed to neuronal loss but to disrupted hippocampus-prefrontal cortex network dynamics, heightened neuroinflammation, and altered dopaminergic transmission.

Mice are able to discriminate plume intermittency, which may be used for odor-guided navigation.

Single nuclei RNA sequencing unmasks 16 variants of midbrain dopamine neurons within a continuum of their gene expression landscape and resolves their differential vulnerability.

Structural representations of sentences generated by deep language models correlate with human listeners' behaviours and neural activity, providing a quantifiable framework to uncover the neural dynamics underpinning incremental speech comprehension.

Cell type-specific effects of antipsychotic drugs in cortex could provide a basis for a functional screen of antipsychotic efficacy.

Anatomical tracing, in combination with a genetic ablation approach, identifies a critical maturation period for neocortex to dorsal raphe afferents pivotal for the development of behavioral persistence over adolescence in mice.
