The human visual system groups the individual features of objects together into a coherent whole via a serial, attention-demanding process.

Basal ganglia output neurons use the NALCN leak channel to maintain their characteristic tonic firing, and this channel is important for the modulation of firing by metabolic or receptor-mediated signals.

Honeybees determine their flight speed by combining feedback from optic flow and airflow.

Dopaminergic cells uniquely receive input from a roughly equal mixture of synapses on dendritic spines and synapses formed directly on dendrites.

Rhythms of lip movements entrain low-frequency brain oscillations and facilitate audiovisual speech processing.

Perception is proposed to be a dynamic motor-sensory closed-loop process in which information flows through the environment and the brain in continuous loops, converging towards steady-state percepts.

The combination of intraneural microstimulation and 7T fMRI makes it possible to bridge the gap between first-order mechanoreceptive afferent input codes and their spatial, dynamic and perceptual representations in human cortex.

Super-resolution microscopy reveals a highly organized compartment in the stereocilia of mechanosensory hair cells of the inner ear, which is critical for hair cell function and affected in disease.

Axonal damage sensing kinase DLK is a direct target and mediator of the cAMP effector kinase PKA in a unified mechanism for stimulating axonal regeneration.
