A neurogenetic approach reveals the cellular division of labor between individual Drosophila larval dopaminergic neurons encoding an averive teaching signal, reflecting principles in the adult insect and vertebrate brain.
Advanced electron microscopy techniques have been applied to comprehensively describe the cellular details and ultrastructural characteristics of all sensilla within the external sensory system of Drosophila larvae.

Parallel connectome trajectories unfold asynchronously across timescales, sustaining a multiplex of functionally distinct brain networks operating at different speeds.
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.
Separating alpha oscillations from broadband activity reveals that alpha suppression in the human visual cortex is highly localized, and modulates cortical state in a manner consistent with exogenous spatial attention.

Fingertip tactile neurons collectively encode the skin's viscoelastic state alongside current touch, potentially enabling the brain to better interpret forces during manipulation.
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.
