Self-citation rates differed by geographic region, seniority, gender, and field, which may ultimately affect the perceived influence of authors in these subgroups in neuroscience literature.

An optogenetic system capable of precise, high-frequency neuronal excitation using red pulsed light and rapid, millisecond inhibition using blue light.

A thalamic nucleus plays a previously unappreciated role in behavioral arousal and learning through its innervation of the dorsal striatum.

Convolutional neural networks can model the early feed-forward components of the MEG evoked response during visual word recognition.

An electrophysiology dataset generated by 10 laboratories from mice during perceptual decision-making reveals that reproducibility of systems neuroscience data requires stringent histological and electrophysiological quality-control criteria and careful analytical choices.

Experiments in fruit fly larvae show that epidermal cells can communicate with sensory neurons to drive responses to pain.

Epidermal mechanosensory responses contribute to acute detection of noxious mechanical stimuli and promote a form of prolonged mechanical hypersensitivity.
