    In mice, discrete odors can selectively promote the neurogenesis of sensory neuron subtypes that they stimulate

    Kawsar Hossain, Madeline Smith ... Stephen W Santoro
    The neurogenesis rates of some olfactory sensory neuron subtypes are selectively accelerated in mice that are exposed to odors that stimulate those subtypes.

    A causal role of the NMDA receptor in recurrent processing during perceptual integration

    Samuel Noorman, Timo Stein ... Simon van Gaal
    Memantine selectively improves neural decoding of attended illusory contours, revealing NMDA receptor-dependent enhancement of feedback processing in human visual perception.

    A contextual fear conditioning paradigm in head-fixed mice exploring virtual reality

    Seetha Krishnan, Can Dong ... Mark Sheffield
    A novel virtual reality-based contextual fear conditioning paradigm for head-fixed mice that elicits robust freezing behavior and enables multiphoton imaging of neural circuits underlying learning, memory, and fear.

    Executioner caspase is proximal to Fasciclin 3 which facilitates non-lethal activation in Drosophila olfactory receptor neurons

    Masaya Muramoto, Nozomi Hanawa ... Natsuki Shinoda
    Subcellular sequestration of caspase near membrane-associated proteins enables its non-lethal activation, which modulates neuronal function and innate olfactory behavior in the adult Drosophila olfactory receptor neurons.

    Morphology and ultrastructure of external sense organs of Drosophila larvae

    Vincent Richter, Anna Rist ... Andreas S Thum
    Advanced electron microscopy techniques have been applied to comprehensively describe the cellular details and ultrastructural characteristics of all sensilla within the external sensory system of Drosophila larvae.

    Predictive learning rules generate a cortical-like replay of probabilistic sensory experiences

    Toshitake Asabuki, Tomoki Fukai
    Biologically plausible synaptic plasticity rules enable recurrent neural networks to spontaneously replay sensory experiences with appropriate probabilistic structure.

    Four individually identified paired dopamine neurons signal taste punishment in larval Drosophila

    Denise Weber, Katrin Vogt ... Andreas S Thum
    A neurogenetic approach reveals the cellular division of labor between individual Drosophila larval dopaminergic neurons encoding an averive teaching signal, reflecting principles in the adult insect and vertebrate brain.

    Microglia are required for developmental specification of AgRP innervation in the hypothalamus of offspring exposed to maternal high-fat diet during lactation

    Haley N Mendoza-Romero, Jessica E Biddinger ... Richard Simerly
    Hypothalamic microglia play an essential role in mediating changes to feeding circuitry caused by exposure to maternal HFD that may contribute to developmental programming of metabolic phenotype.
