Metabolic activity across all living things represents an organizing principle for the sense of smell in humans and animals.

Single-nucleus sequencing, anatomy, and physiology reveal heterogeneity among olivocochlear neurons (a group of cells that provide feedback to the inner ear), identify a neuropeptide-enriched subtype, and show that neuropeptide expression changes during postnatal development and after sound exposure.

Axon guidance genes are conserved regulators of neurodegeneration in Drosophila melanogaster and human inducible motor neuron models of UBQLN2-associated amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Purkinje cell-specific ablation demonstrates regeneration of these neurons and functional recovery of the cerebellum during both larval and adult zebrafish.

The combination of NSCs with NSC-derived exosomes ameliorated the injury of brain tissue including cerebral infarction, neuronal death, and glial scarring, and promoted the recovery of motor function.

A biologically plausible model of myelin plasticity demonstrates how oligodendrocytes can selectively adjust conduction delays in axon bundles to allow robust communication between brain regions through long-range synchronization.

The highly metabolically active hair cells of the zebrafish lateral line have a distinct mitochondrial phenotype consisting of small mitochondria apically and large, networked mitochondrion basally, demonstrating a nonuniform mitochondrial architecture that is sculpted by cellular activity.

A biophysical cortical circuit model reveals how thalamic inputs mediate complex dynamics in the frontal eye fields and lateral intraparietal area, enabling rhythmic enhancements in visual sensitivity observed behaviorally.

Ripple origination point shapes neural activity dynamics across the different hippocampal subfields.

Using fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), maturational changes in tissue microstructure can be derived using diffusion MRI which provide new insight into the fundamental neurobiological transitions occurring within the emerging thalamocortical white matter pathways.
