A Hebbian learning rule accurately predicts the changes in synaptic organization induced by retinal axons that grow to the wrong position in the visual thalamus.

Implicitly learned spatial priors shape early visual cortex responses by suppressing potential distractions before stimuli appear, revealing a proactive mechanism that may enhance attentional control.

A subset of Alzheimer disease patients carry mutant microglia somatic clones which promote neuro-inflammation.

A new method to image the lateral surface of midbrain revealed novel organization of the lateral cortex of the inferior colliculus of the mouse.

Foxg1 regulates gliogenesis in the mouse neocortex by modulating FGF signalling and integrating intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms to ensure a balanced production of neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes in the brain.

The term 'parasympathetic', unlike the term 'sympathetic', unduly unifies an assemblage of autonomic pathways which are unrelated by anatomy, physiology or genetics, and whose distinction can foster a better understanding of the autonomic nervous system.

Investigating how the production of insulin is regulated in fruit flies reveals surprising insights that may help to better understand how this process unfolds in humans.
