The RNA helicase DDX3X controls neural progenitor division, cell fate, and translation during embryonic brain development.

Cd59 and developmental inflammation are key players in myelinating glial cell development, highlighting the collaboration between glia and the innate immune system to ensure normal neural development.

The use of high-density optical brain imaging in listeners with cochlear implants shows increased activity in frontal cortex during speech perception compared to those with normal hearing.

The sleep-deprived brain in humans undergoes upscaled intracortical excitability which diminishes induction of LTP-like plasticity via transcranial electrical stimulation while converting the LTD-like to LTP-like plasticity and these physiological changes couple with impaired learning, memory, and attention at behavioral level.

Molecular genetic identity is a vital but unexplored axis of functional organization in the brainstem periaqueductal gray.

Excitatory and inhibitory neuronal abnormalities show distinct associations to tau and amyloid accumulations in patients with Alzheimer’s disease.

Pharmacological fMRI study provides evidence that learning from the unexpected presence and absence of pain is mediated by different brain systems.

Working in Africa provides neuroscientists with opportunities that are not available in other continents, but obstacles must be overcome for the neuroscience community in Africa to reach its full potential.

A landmark-based cross-modality alignment method robust to variation in landmark sets is applied to annotate an EM time series of Caenorhabditis elegans embryonic development as a community resource.

The auditory system adapts to the changing acoustics of reverberant environments by temporally shifting the inhibitory tuning of cortical neurons to reduce the effects of reverberation.
