Continuous flash suppression reduces V1 orientation responses in an ocular-dominance-dependent manner, which may still allow low-level coarse orientation discrimination but provide insufficient information for higher-level visual and cognitive tasks.
Allocating space, materials and energy to an eye's optics and photoreceptor array is a major factor in eye design that explains obvious differences between simple eyes and compound eyes.

In aging gerbils, compromised temporal fine structure perception is explained by a more prominent representation in auditory nerve fibers of temporal fluctuations of the signal envelope, rather than by synaptopathy.

Human stem cell-derived adherent cortical organoids in 384-well plates provide a reproducible, long-term cortical organoid platform with neurons, glia, and robust network activity, enabling scalable disease modeling and therapeutic screening.
A conserved neuropeptidergic circuit directly links internal glucose levels to sweet taste sensitivity, providing a central mechanism for coupling metabolic state to feeding behavior.
