Constitutive deficiency of AP2γ transcription factor impairs hippocampal glutamatergic neurogenesis and induces alterations on limbic-cortical connectivity that contribute to anxiety-like behavior and cumulative memory deficits in mice from juvenile to adult periods.

Drosophila larvae show taste multimodality and combinatorial sensing at gustatory organ level but also systemically as they employ complementary external and internal taste in sugar detection.

A combination of single-cell RNA sequencing of the developing septum and genetic fate mapping is used to analyze the origin of septal neurons.

Complex motor behaviors can be assembled from simpler repeating elements controlled by pattern-generation circuits operating at different time scales.

Burst-like neural activity in the β-frequency band conveys inhibitory commands within long-proposed cortico-subcortical networks for motor inhibition, with inhibitory activity in STN preceding thalamic activity, which has strong implications for movement disorders marked by abnormalities in β-bursting.

Integrating circuit-level theories about population dynamics in motor cortex with behavioral-level theories about motor control.

An asymmetric olfactory projection innervates a small subset of identified neurons in the right habenula, which are activated by a repulsive odorant and mediate prolonged aversive behavior, providing further evidence for lateralization of the zebrafish brain.

A vasoactive molecular imaging probe provides capability for sensitive functional imaging of cancer-associated protease activity in vivo.

Investigating how an artificial network of neurons controls a simulated arm suggests that rotational patterns of activity in the motor cortex may rely on sensory feedback from the moving limb.

Driving theta–gamma activity in the human cortex with non-invasive brain stimulation enhances motor skill acquisition in healthy adults, revealing a potential neuroplastic mechanism that might be harnessed for therapeutic intervention.
