Cerebellar Purkinje cells make direct synapses within the parabrachial, vestibular, pontine central gray, and other brainstem nuclei that exhibit spatial gradients and cell specificity consistent with nuanced influences on diverse behaviors.

Learned suppression of distractor locations in visual search emerges through reactive mechanisms that involve initial spatial selection prior to suppression.

The unexpected absence of danger is experienced as a pleasurable relief and activates reward-related brain regions in humans, highlighting an overlap in the processing of absent danger and rewards.

The entopeduncular nucleus multiplexes motor and reward signals, with spatio-temporal coding more prominent than kinematic, both shaped by movement goals, challenging prevailing theories of basal ganglia function.

Motor memories represent dynamics in a minimum noise framework such that the execution of forces based on this representation minimizes the force distortion arising from neural noise, explaining the prior inconsistent force generalization results.

behaviorMate provides a flexible, open-source platform for in vivo investigations that relies on a network of devices to enable observation of neural activity during navigation using physical treadmill and VR setups.

The ligand Netrin mediates axon guidance through a combination of haptotaxis over short distances and chemotaxis over longer distances.
