Rodent medial prefrontal cortex is not crucial for an active place avoidance task requiring cognitive control evidenced by hippocampal activity that purposefully alternates between task-relevant and task-irrelevant representations of the environment.
Neural activity patterns in randomly sampled neuron groups statistically match whole-brain dynamics, revealing a scale-invariant organizational principle that enables robust and efficient computation across brain regions and species.

The neurogenesis rates of some olfactory sensory neuron subtypes are selectively accelerated in mice that are exposed to odors that stimulate those subtypes.
Memantine selectively improves neural decoding of attended illusory contours, revealing NMDA receptor-dependent enhancement of feedback processing in human visual perception.
Subcellular sequestration of caspase near membrane-associated proteins enables its non-lethal activation, which modulates neuronal function and innate olfactory behavior in the adult Drosophila olfactory receptor neurons.
A novel virtual reality-based contextual fear conditioning paradigm for head-fixed mice that elicits robust freezing behavior and enables multiphoton imaging of neural circuits underlying learning, memory, and fear.
A longitudinal, deep learning approach reveals challenges and opportunities in establishing brain age as an effective metric of aging, with particular consideration given to underrepresented populations in Asia.
Individuals with a late circadian rhythm show the same deficits in motivational decision-making as those with neuropsychiatric symptoms, but only when tested in the morning.
