A combination of glutamate imaging, multicompartmental modeling, and machine learning elucidates the peak theoretical and actual contributions of heterogeneous kinetics of presynaptic inputs to the computation of directional selectivity in retinal starburst amacrine cells.

Molecular analyses reveal the neuroendocrine control of seasonal life-history transitions in birds.

A long-term arousal state is linked to the acute decision to leave a food patch by sensory neurons that integrate neuromodulatory information, food intake, and environmental signals.

Using long-term in vivo imaging with miniature two-photon microscopy, microglia surveillance is sleep state-dependent and stress-induced in freely behaving mice, regulated by the locus coeruleus-norepinephrine system and β₂-adrenergic receptors signaling.

Microglia differentially modulate the neuronal activities via P2Y12 and its downstream Ca²⁺ signaling in a brain region-specific manner, which facilitates and stabilizes the response to general anesthesia.

p21-activated kinase 3 (PAK3) is a factor related to radiation-induced cognitive decline, and it has been found that regulating it leads to the recovery of cognitive decline induced by radiation.

While neurotransmitters were discovered decades ago, evidence suggests that more transmitters are to be discovered using the presented approaches.

Preoptic area neurons co-expressing GABA and kisspeptin are essential for the preovulatory surge mechanism but not for the pulsatile secretion of luteinizing hormone.

A multidisciplinary approach sheds light on the fundamental mechanisms underlying social belief communication under uncertainty.

A novel technology for recording muscle activity provides unprecedented access to the electrical signals that control the body across muscles, species, and behaviors.
