Rodent medial prefrontal cortex is not crucial for an active place avoidance task requiring cognitive control evidenced by hippocampal activity that purposefully alternates between task-relevant and task-irrelevant representations of the environment.
Optogenetic circuit mapping identifies the synaptic connectivity of input/output pathways in the songbird premotor region HVC, providing a basis for understanding information flow through brain circuits for song.

The neurogenesis rates of some olfactory sensory neuron subtypes are selectively accelerated in mice that are exposed to odors that stimulate those subtypes.
Memantine selectively improves neural decoding of attended illusory contours, revealing NMDA receptor-dependent enhancement of feedback processing in human visual perception.
A novel virtual reality-based contextual fear conditioning paradigm for head-fixed mice that elicits robust freezing behavior and enables multiphoton imaging of neural circuits underlying learning, memory, and fear.
Subcellular sequestration of caspase near membrane-associated proteins enables its non-lethal activation, which modulates neuronal function and innate olfactory behavior in the adult Drosophila olfactory receptor neurons.
