A new multi camera imaging platform simultaneously captures large-area, high-resolution video of unconstrained small model organisms and provides behavioral measurements that span multiple spatial scales.

People's confidence in information and their neural correlates in key regions of the social brain are more stable when tracking social advice compared to non-social information.
Having the eye open under the patch, even though this does not change the exogenous stimulation because the eye is occluded, will result in an enhanced short-term effect for ocular dominance due to the internal neural states.
Motor performance benefits from rewarding contexts via a non-uniform reduction of response latencies and increase in feedback gains across the feedback loops involved in upper limb motor control.

Ultrastructural analysis of optogenetically stimulated inner hair cell ribbon synapses reveals normally sized synaptic vesicles and enhanced vesicle docking at the active zone membrane.
DeCalciOn is a low-cost open-source hardware system for real-time in vivo calcium imaging that offers capabilities for online decoding of neural population activity and delivery of short latency closed-loop feedback in freely behaving animals.
Individual and situational differences in altruistic behavior do not reflect use of fundamentally different decision mechanisms, but instead differences in early perceptual or attentional processing of the choice-relevant information.

HERBS is a catch-all anatomical registration toolkit allowing users to plan surgical coordinates in advance, or visualize anatomical data post hoc in 2D or 3D brain volumes for rats, mice, or any species that has a compatible atlas.

Anoctamin/TMEM16 and SLC12 co-transporter genes selectively function in regulating cold nociception via excitatory chloride currents and can promote neuropathic sensitization phenotypes, including behavioral sensitization and neuronal hyperexcitability in Drosophila multimodal sensory neurons.
