A comprehensive battery of behavioral, electrophysiological and functional MRI techniques has allowed the development of a data-driven conceptual model of the tinnitus-hyperacusis network.

The discovery that opioid neuropeptide neuronal signaling controls feeding behavior in a genetically tractable invertebrate model may help unravel the mechanisms of appetite control in humans.

The default mode network in the brain is activated during the performance of executive-type tasks when a substantial change in cognitive contents is required.

Building on recent findings that central sensory processing allocates resources according to the informativeness of statistical features (Hermundstad et al., 2014), we identify visual area V2 as the site of the relevant computations for local image statistics, thus providing a common underpinning for diverse aspects of its neuronal selectivity.

TGFβ and serotonin signaling in a neural circuit encodes food availability; these signals regulate the dynamic range and variability on the circuit to impact coding accuracy and lifespan responses.

Independent osmotic, genetic and biochemical perturbations modulate neurotransmitter release in a multiplicative manner.

Trial-by-trial analysis of neuronal activity in monkeys performing a decision-making task reveals the neural correlates of behaviours including wavering, hesitation and sudden changes of mind.

An algorithm for analysing brain connectivity data identifies cell types and connections in simple (C. elegans) and complex (mouse) nervous systems, and can even resolve structure and connectivity in a man-made microprocessor.

Harbor porpoises dynamically control biosonar field of view as they track and capture prey, focusing the beam through deformations to the melon.
