Co-release of the functionally opposing fast neurotransmitters, glutamate and GABA, from distinct synaptic vesicles within the same supramammillary synaptic terminal modulates dentate granule cell firing in a frequency-dependent manner.
Attentional modulation is affected by target-distractor similarity, indicating tuning sharpening as the underlying mechanism for response enhancement during object-based attention.

Associative and non-associative learning mechanisms summate to produce robust and complex conditioned behavior profiles, opening new avenues to in-depth investigations of defensive responses and threat evaluation.
TIM23 core deficiency specifically impacts the oxidative phosphorylation and the mitochondrial ribosome complexes and, unexpectedly, leads to reduction of plasma membrane voltage-dependent potassium channels in neurons.
An accurate and efficient biologically plausible statistical model of the spiking activity of neural populations shows computational benefits of homeostatic synaptic scaling in learning large neural population codes.
Gerbils exhibit stable, family-specific vocal dialects over weeks, suggesting vocal communication may play a key role in representing kinship in natural social groups.
