With three simple steps in 48 hr, EZ Clear effectively renders adult mouse organs optically transparent while simultaneously preserving signal from synthetic and endogenous fluorescent reporters and is compatible with wholemount immunostaining and cryosectioning followed by histological or immunofluorescent staining.

While perceptual content is encoded in non-oscillatory activity in the slow cortical potential (<5 Hz) range, perceptual stability is predominantly influenced by the amplitude fluctuations of alpha (~10 Hz) and beta (~20 Hz) brain oscillations.

mHTT delivery in key cortical and subcortical brain regions leads to hallmark mHTT aggregate formation, gray and white matter degenerative changes, along with motor and cognitive decline in a new macaque model of Huntington's disease.

Behavioral and in vivo imaging analysis in the fly suggests that mating-related sensory experience regulates female odor perception and expression of choice behavior through a dopamine-gated learning circuit.
The ongoing stream of information that comes in through our senses is segmented into distinct neural states at each level of the cortical hierarchy, which underpins our experience of distinct events.

In vivo genetic experiments show that aberrant expression of a transcription factor can compromise the functionality of neurons which is important to better understand the potential mechanisms underlying neuropathologies.

A novel approach to studying anxiety reveals that learned anxiety and diazepam treatment have unique roles on prefrontal cortex and ventral tegmental area activity.
In the cochlea, repressor element 1-silencing transcription factor (REST) regulates the expression levels of Kv7.4 and alterations of REST functions result in progressive hearing loss.

A novel, non-auditory learning paradigm reveals that songbirds can modify their vocal output based on somatosensory signals and that a common set of brain pathways underlies both this form of vocal learning and auditory-guided vocal learning.
