A multi-pronged approach reveals that ion transport peptide neuropeptide acts through the guanylate cyclase receptor Gyc76C to coordinate osmotic and metabolic homeostasis across multiple tissues in Drosophila.

Making causal inferences about illness, compared to making causal inferences about mechanical breakdown and reading causally unconnected sentences, activates a semantic brain network implicated in the conceptual representation of animate entities (e.g. people, animals).

Cell-specific manipulations uncover novel mechanisms in the ventral striatum that mediate the influence of environmental stimuli on action selection.

A novel analysis reveals distinct periodic and aperiodic EEG activity during working memory, challenging oscillatory-centric views while establishing aperiodic activity as a more sensitive marker of cognitive state.

A jumping spider discriminates familiar from novel conspecifics for hours, indicating recognition and long-term memory in a miniature-brained, asocial arthropod, highlighting learning and internal representations in small nervous systems.

Removal of type-I nNOS neurons decreased delta-band power in the LFP, lowered dilation to sustained stimulation, decreased the interhemispheric coherence of neural and hemodynamic signals, and reduced vasomotion amplitude.

Eye-specific differences in presynaptic release site addition and clustering correlate with axonal segregation outcomes during retinogeniculate refinement in the mouse.
