Kavli Affiliate: Anirvan Nandy | Authors: Xize Xu, Mitchell P Morton, Nyomi Hudson, Anirvan Nandy and Monika P. Jadi | Summary: Our visual experience is a result of the concerted activity of neuronal ensembles in the sensory hierarchy. Yet how the spatial organization of objects influences neural activity in this hierarchy remains poorly understood. We […]
Kavli Affiliate: Li Zhao | Authors: Aman Upadhyay, Mark A Gradwell, Thomas J Vajtay, James Conner, Arnab A Sayal, Chloe Azadegan, Komal R Patel, Joshua K Thackray, Manon Bohic, Fumiyasu Imai, Simon O Ogundare, Yutaka Yoshida, Ishmail Abdus-Saboor, Eiman Azim and Victoria Eugenia Guadalupe Abraira | Summary: Tactile perception relies on reliable transmission and modulation […]
Kavli Affiliate: Li Zhao | Authors: Junhui Peng, Nicolas Svetec, Henrik Molina and Li Zhao | Summary: Post-mating responses play a vital role in successful reproduction across diverse species. In fruit flies, sex peptide (SP) binds to sex peptide receptor (SPR), triggering a series of post-mating responses. However, the origin of SPR predates the emergence […]
Kavli Affiliate: Reza Shadmehr | Authors: Alden Shoup, Natasha Porwal, Mohammad Amin Fakharian, Paul Hage, Simon P Orozco and Reza Shadmehr | Summary: Electrophysiological recording with a new probe often yields better signal quality than with a used probe. Why does the signal quality degrade after only a few experiments? Here, we considered silicon probes […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alexandra Nelson | Authors: Xiaowen Zhuang, Julia Lemak, Sadhana Sridhar and Alexandra B Nelson | Summary: Healthy action selection relies on the coordinated activity of striatal direct and indirect pathway neurons. In Parkinson’s disease (PD), in which loss of midbrain dopamine neurons is associated with progressive motor and cognitive deficits, this coordination is […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yishi Jin | Authors: Yishi Jin, Stephan M Blazie, Daniel Fortunati and Yan Zhao | Summary: Protein translation initiation is a complex and conserved process involving many proteins acting in concert. The eukaryotic initiation factor 3 (eIF3) complex is essential for the assembly of the pre-initiation complex that scans and positions mRNA at […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alipasha Vaziri | Authors: Yaunlong Zhang, Lekang Yuan, Jiamin Wu, Tobias Noebauer, Rujin Zhang, Guihua Xiao, Mingrui Wang, Hao Xie, Qionghai Dai and Alipasha Vaziri | Summary: Understanding how neuronal dynamics gives rise to ethologically relevant behavior requires recording of neuronal population activity via technologies that are compatible with unconstrained animal behavior. However, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiaoqin Wang | Authors: Yang Zhang, Xindong Song, Yueqi Guo, Chenggang Chen, Michael S Osmanski and Xiaoqin Wang | Summary: Healthy action selection relies on the coordinated activity of striatal direct and indirect pathway neurons. In Parkinson’s disease (PD), in which loss of midbrain dopamine neurons is associated with progressive motor and cognitive […]
Kavli Affiliate: Liam Paninski | Authors: Ankit Vishnubhotla, Charlotte Loh, Liam Paninski, Akash Srivastava and Cole Lincoln Hurwitz | Summary: Contrastive learning is quickly becoming an essential tool in neuroscience for extracting robust and meaningful representations of neural activity. Despite numerous applications to neuronal population data, there has been little exploration of how these methods […]
