Experience-driven plasticity in auditory cortex neurons establishes cross-modal associations, enabling enhanced discrimination of multisensory cues through specialized integrative strategies.

A computational framework for combining neural and behavioral data to infer latent dynamics underlying decision-making reveals distinct accumulation dynamics in different brain regions in the rat.

Humans scale brain signal variability with stimulus complexity to efficiently process visual inputs, an ability reduced in those with poorer visual discrimination and in older adults with lower GABA levels (brain's major inhibitory neurotransmitter), but recoverable by boosting GABA pharmacologically.

Fruit flies detect cholesterol through ionotropic receptors in taste, leading to active avoidance despite dietary necessity.

Genetic tools were generated and used to determine the neurotransmitters and neuropeptides used by individual cell types within the Drosophila central complex and to study their roles in sleep regulation.

Understanding and reasoning about the physical world rely on a specific brain network, in which the area PF of the left inferior parietal lobe plays a central role.
