Visuo-auditory associative memories in the neocortex are formed through cholecystokinin-mediated heterosynaptic plasticity, primarily involving entorhinal cortex projections to the auditory cortex, highlighting intricate neural dynamics in multisensory memory processing.
There are many fine-scale scene-selective areas within the visual system, beyond the occipital, temporal, and medial place areas, whose function may be key to performing complex tasks in dynamic environments.
Genetic and pharmacological tools are used to dissect the mechanisms by which the presynaptic actin cytoskeleton facilitates membrane internalization at synapses and, thereby, neurotransmission.

Neural spiking throughout the MTL is synchronous with hippocampal theta phase during spatial memory and navigation experiments in humans, even after controlling for phase-coupling to local theta oscillations.
Ts65dn mice exhibit structural, functional, molecular, and genetic alterations that are modulated but unrecovered by prenatal chronic GTE-EGCG, highlighting the importance of holistic studies to understand complex disorders and treatments.
Of the two divisions proposed long ago to describe the autonomic nervous system, thoraco-lumbar sympathetic and cranio-sacral parasympathetic, the latter finds no support from transcriptionally defined neuron types.
