Quantitative 3D models of synaptic boutons were generated underlying important functional signal cascades of neocortical networks.

Deletion of the neurodevelopmental disorder gene Cntnap2 increases repetitive behaviors in mice and enhances the excitability of striatal direct pathway neurons through decreased potassium channel function.

Two descending neurons with distinct dynamics contribute to steering, including one influenced by both memory-guided and sensory-driven signals.

The firing mode of mediodorsal thalamic neurons may act as a central switching mechanism for the level of arousal and consciousness in natural sleep and induced ethanol hypnosis in mice.

In vision-based flight control of hummingbird hawkmoths, the visual field partitions by natural cue prevalence into an optic flow and dorsal directional pathway, which integrate according to their relevance for flight safety.

Reproductive impairments in obese MC4R-deficient individuals are due to the absence of melanocortin signaling on Kiss1 neurons and not to their metabolic condition.

The claustrum integrates and redistributes sensory and frontal cortical inputs across distinct neural modules to enhance sensitivity to multimodal stimuli.
