NMDA-spikes mediate plasticity of lateral olfactory tract inputs carrying direct odor information to the piriform cortex.

A 'hotspot' position in an olfactory receptor protein family underlies changes in odor tuning in different receptors at different times during evolution.

Precise genetic manipulations demonstrate that a single-neuron class dynamically controls multiple behaviors by engaging different synapses during high- and low-activity states.

Neurons projecting from prelimbic cortex to paraventricular thalamus bias approach decisions to ambiguous stimuli.

A computational framework and analysis of rodent CA1 data reveals that theta oscillations sequentially sweep through the past, present, and future at a spatial scale that varies with the characteristic speed of the animal.

Patch-clamp electrophysiology, fluorescence imaging, and computational modeling were used to identify cellular mechanisms underlying maturation of dendritic computations in interneurons.

A review of studies in the life sciences shows that inappropriate statistical approaches may distort conclusions on sex differences.

A survey reveals that many researchers do not use appropriate statistical analyses to evaluate sex differences in biomedical research.

Discovery of a non-canonical mechanism for decreasing protein kinase A activity that does not require lowering of cyclic AMP.

Behavioral, optogenetic, and computational modeling analyses show that the roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans uses a relaxation oscillation mechanism to generate rhythmic locomotor patterns.
