Fingertip tactile neurons collectively encode the skin's viscoelastic state alongside current touch, potentially enabling the brain to better interpret forces during manipulation.
Functional neural circuit dissection identifies sensorimotor responses to noxious cold in Drosophila larvae revealing complex mechanisms by which nervous systems sense and respond to cold.
Ferumoxytol-enhanced MRI enables high-resolution, laminar mapping of cerebral blood volume in the primate brain, validating core neurovascular features and advancing noninvasive tools for neurometabolic imaging.
A dynamic DNA methylation 'barcode' on the X chromosome can distinguish thousands of individual adult male neurons and may record aspects of their development.
A temporally stable and cell-type-specific genetic driver library provides the means to access and manipulate neuronal lineages in the fly nervous system during development and adulthood.
