Giant ankyrin-B enables the transduction of Sema 3A repelling cues and is important for normal axonal connectivity.

Progressive changes in Purkinje neuron perturbations and overall cerebellar atrophy correlate for the first time with the development of an overt loss of motor function in a novel mouse model of Ataxia Telangiectasia.

Two non-overlapping neural circuits that involve the lamina terminalis and arcuate nucleus of hypothalamus independently drive feedforward anticipatory suppression and activation of vasopressin neurons by drinking and feeding, respectively.

Two neural circuits control the release of vasopressin in response to eating and drinking before there are any detectable changes in blood water levels.

Auditory representations of natural sounds are similar in primary auditory cortex of ferrets and humans, but diverge sharply in non-primary areas for speech and music sounds.

Analysis of a mouse model of megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts (MLC) shows that the astrocyte-specific membrane protein MLC1 sustains the postnatal development of perivascular astrocytic processes and that MLC is a developmental disorder of the gliovascular unit.

Genetic deficits in auditory sensory transduction evoke changes in development and maturation of synapses between inner hair cells and spiral ganglion neurons, which can be partially recovered using inner ear gene therapy.

Novel stimulation patterns and large-scale neural activity recording show that an input-specific supra-linear summation synthesizes a sparse, but comprehensive code of tactile and visual stimuli in the sensory cortex.

Reducing activation of opioidergic receptors strengthens the communication between control and reward circuits in the brain during hedonic judgements.

Under time-pressure, human action is temporarily dominated by stimuli in the environment, and this results in behavior conflicting with current goals.
