Microglia regulate anesthesia by altering the activity of neurons in specific regions of the brain via a purinergic receptor.

A complementary relationship exists between the hemispheric lateralization of inhibitory control (typically right) and speech (typically left), as observed in typically and atypically lateralized left-handed individuals.

Primary auditory cortex shows population-level correlates of sound categorization, with categorical patterns emerging during sound presentation and task engagement leading to asymmetrical representation of stimuli, indicating an early involvement in stimulus categorization.

Genephys is a generative model for dissecting the different aspects that compound our neural responses to perceptual stimulation, identifying which aspects remain stable and which ones vary across experimental repetitions.

14-3-3 protein augments the protein stability of phosphorylated spastin and promotes the recovery of spinal cord injury in mice.

Distinct interoceptive and gustatory bacterial food cues converge to control neuroendocrine gene expression in two neurons, which modulates and is correlated with internal states driving feeding versus foraging behavior.

The strong limitation of human subjects in tracking two color streams simultaneously as they independently traverse color space can be attributed to attention alternating slowly and sequentially between streams.

After playing violent video games for 7 hr over the course of 2 weeks, human male participants show neither signs of decreased empathy for the pain of another person nor of decreased responsivity to violent images.

Sensory nerve fiber ending ensheathment and connexin 43 contacts by keratinocytes at the neuro-cutaneous unit can be visualized and quantified at super-resolution in human skin.
