Neurons in the amygdala, a brain system usually associated with emotion, track progress during sequential reward-directed choices according to an internal plan in Rhesus macaques.

The absence of functional inhibition is a developmentally transient circuit property of corticothalamic feedback that is essential for the central transmission of spontaneous retinal waves.

Male and female mice react differently to social isolation but not to an acute physical stress.

A new method for inducing, measuring and modelling visual hallucinations in healthy people reveals that hallucinations share common underlying mechanisms with normal sensory perception.

A gene expression-guided functional screen identifies factors and cell types that regulate diverse aspects of neural regeneration in planarians.

In depth characterization of gene expression in the mouse hypothalamus will facilitate understanding of the molecular pathways that affect metabolic traits and discovers new genes associated with these pathways.

During a spatial working memory task, neurons in the dorsomedial striatum encode the sample stimulus most strongly towards the onset of the delay period, while they display sequential firing activity that more evenly spans the delay period.

Evidence suggests a common coding mechanism underlies spatial and temporal aspects of episodic memory in the human hippocampus.

A combination of genetics, behavior and physiology demonstrate that cool and moisture sensing rely on overlapping combinations of sensory receptors in Drosophila.
