Kavli Affiliate: Gabriel Silva | Authors: Vivek K George, Vikash N Morar and Gabriel A Silva | Summary: Abstract Spike-timing dependent plasticity (STDP) is widely accepted as a mechanism through which the brain can learn information from different stimuli. Basing synaptic changes on the timing between presynaptic and postsynaptic spikes enhances contributing edges within a […]

Kavli Affiliate: Terrence Sejnowski | Authors: Nuttida Rungratsameetaweemana, Robert Kim and Terrence Sejnowski | Summary: Abstract Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) based on model neurons that communicate via continuous signals have been widely used to study how cortical neurons perform cognitive tasks. Training such networks to perform tasks that require information maintenance over a brief period […]
Kavli Affiliate: Terrence Sejnowski | Authors: Antonio Pinto-Duarte, Katherine Bogue, Terrence J Sejnowski and Shyam Srinivasan | Summary: Abstract Epigenetic changes are involved in the onset and progression of cancer, and the detection of DNA methylation signatures may foster the improvement of diagnosis and prognosis. While the emergence of innovative technologies has fostered numerous studies […]

Kavli Affiliate: Sreekanth Chalasani | Authors: Amy Pribadi, Kaila Rosales, Kirthi C Reddy and Sreekanth H Chalasani | Summary: Abstract Prey respond to predators by altering their behavior to optimize their own fitness and survival. We probe the interactions between Caenorhabditis elegans and its naturally cohabiting predator Pristionchus uniformis to reveal the pathways driving changes […]
Kavli Affiliate: Bradley Voytek | Authors: Michael Preston, Natalie Schaworonkow and Bradley Voytek | Summary: Abstract Electrical recordings of human brain activity via electroencephalography (EEG) show prominent, rhythmic voltage fluctuations. These periodic oscillations have been linked to nearly every cognitive and perceptual process, as well numerous disease states. Recent methodological and theoretical advances, however, have […]

Kavli Affiliate: Samuel Pfaff | Authors: Lydia Daboussi, Giancarlo Costaguta, Miriam Gullo, Veronica Pessino, Brendan O’Leary, Karen Lettieri, Shawn Driscoll and Samuel L. Pfaff | Summary: Abstract Schwann cells respond to acute axon damage by transiently transdifferentiating into specialized repair cells that restore sensorimotor function. However, the molecular systems controlling repair cell formation and function […]
