BIN1 forms a complex with Tau and voltage-gated calcium channels in neurons, and higher BIN1 levels promote neuronal activity, calcium influx, and bursting that is blocked by reducing Tau.

The prefrontal cortex encodes both stable and dynamic representations of expected value, providing mechanisms to support robust as well as flexible access to value information during temporal delays.

Electrophysiological analysis and imaging in live zebrafish reveal that infant- and adult-onset SCA13 mutations have distinct effects on the electrical activity, development, and survival of cerebellar Purkinje cells.

At least three hypothalamic subsystems are involved in cardiovascular regulation in humans.

LocoMouse analysis of severely ataxic reeler mutant mice reveals fundamental features of locomotor ataxia and provides a roadmap for linking high-dimensional behavioral phenotyping to alterations in underlying neural circuits.

Operant drug self-administration in a mouse model of neuropathic pain reveals pain-relieving effects of a cannabinoid CB₂ receptor agonist that are mediated through CB₂ receptors of neurons and lymphocytes.

Mirror neurons, including corticospinal neurons, in primary motor cortex of macaque monkeys, clearly dissociate between execution and observation of grasping actions while ventral premotor cortex (F5) maintains a similar representation.

High-speed calcium imaging from the axon initial segment shows that sodium channels are in part permeable to calcium ions.

HCN and SK channel currents in striatal cholinergic neurons are decreased with dopamine loss, but only HCN is restored by chronic L-DOPA and SK abnormality persists in dyskinesia.

A distinction between private and public aspects of mental states is reflected in a medial-lateral division of human prefrontal cortex.
