Combining computational models with FMRI in humans during pain reversal learning reveals parallel pain modulatory brain circuits that differ in their flexibility and sensitivity to instructions.

Inter-species variations in connectome architecture across the mammalian phylogenetic spectrum recapitulate established taxonomic relationships defined by genetic, morphology, and behavioural differences, and are mainly driven by local changes in connectivity while hallmark global features tend to be conserved across species.

Sloth1 and Sloth2 are two mitochondrial peptides that are translated from one transcript and are important for neuronal function in Drosophila.

Learning produces dynamic white matter volumetric changes in the rodent brain observed by voxel-based morphometry on longitudinal structural MRI for which estimated white matter volume reflects adaptive myelination in the cortex.

Intracranial recordings indicate that the insula encodes, in a partially intermixed layout, both static and dynamic cues from different body parts that reflect the intensity of pain experienced by others.

A novel high-throughput FPGA-based multi-animal tracking and training system was used to demonstrate trace and operant conditioning in Drosophila larvae.

Human performance in a group synchronization task, described as a temporal version of the wisdom of crowds, can be understood as a phenomenon of the same nature as collective dynamics in swarming animals.

A fly larval mechanical nociceptor develops dedicated neuronal mechanisms to support its sensory preference in detecting localized poking forces, and this sensory feature well supports the physiological function of the nociceptor in sensing the physical attack of its natural enemy.

Neurons sensing harmful mechanical forces in the larvae of fruit flies have a striking architecture of dendrites that are optimized to detect pointy objects.

Two-photon glutamate imaging reveals that 'sustained' and 'transient' input are systematically arranged along single starburst dendrites, supporting the 'space-time' wiring model for direction selectivity.
