Animals adapt their behavior according to specific sensory features present within their environment. How an animal’s nervous system extracts and integrates sensory information to guide an appropriate ...

In order for the brain to function correctly, neurons must connect with the correct partner neurons. This process is incredibly complex, and faults in this neurodevelopmental program underlie a ...

During vocal exchanges, hearing specific auditory signals can provoke vocal responses or suppress vocalizations to avoid interference. These abilities result in the widespread phenomenon of vocal turn ...

Regionally distinct populations of astrocytes emerge in the mouse spinal cord during development, but whether their functions vary according to their local domains remains unknown. Molofsky et al.

We present here a framework to generate a realistic multiscale circuit model of the larval zebrafish brain – the multiscale virtual fish (MVF). The model will be based on algorithms inferred from ...

Cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy can experience severe side effects that persist long after treatments end. A new study has found a novel pathway for understanding why these debilitating ...
