Sub-surface imaging demonstrates that vertical shear beneath fingertip ridges enables high mechanical spatial resolution to support tactile sensing.

Loss of function of Ptbp1 in retinal progenitors leads to changes in RNA splicing but does not affect neurogenesis and cell fate specification.

A light–tone sensory preconditioning task in male mice is developed revealing sex differences and demonstrating that dorsal, but not ventral, hippocampal CaMKII-positive neurons encode innocuous stimulus associations.

The electrogenic Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase generates a slow activity-dependent feedback signal that influences the computation of excitable cells and requires additional compensatory mechanisms during periods of high sustained activity.

A new method for tracking the activity of individual neurons day after day in the growing brain has revealed a key developmental transition in neuronal activity.

By providing new ways to map cortico-subcortical connectivity patterns, the proposed cross-species tractography approaches directly allow novel comparative studies between the human and macaque brain and enable subsequent explorations of brain-behaviour/disease symptom associations across individuals.

The demonstration of effort discounting-like behavior in a lower invertebrate sets a new phylogenetic boundary on discounting behavior.

A pharmacogenetic approach provides a foundational dataset describing the influence of opioids on synaptic processing in a brain microcircuit known to be critical for driving hedonic behaviors.

Calcium levels and structural diversity among synaptic ribbons in bipolar neurons likely enable differential encoding of visual information, revealing a potential mechanism for fine-tuning sensory signal processing.
