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 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mark Ellisman | Authors: Hugo Calligaro, Azarin Shoghi, Xinyue Chen, Keun-Young Kim, Yu Hsin Liu, Brian Khov, Benjamin Finander, Hiep Le, Mark H Ellisman and Satchidananda Panda | Summary: Abstract The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) in the hypothalamus of the vertebrate brain is the central pacemaker regulating circadian rhythmicity throughout the body. The SCN […]
Kavli Affiliate: Fred Gage | Authors: Sarah L Parylak, Fan Qiu, Sara B Linker, Iryna S Gallina, Christina K Lim, David Preciado, Aidan H McDonald and Fred H Gage | Summary: Abstract Immature dentate granule cells (DGCs) generated in the hippocampus during adulthood are believed to play a unique role in dentate gyrus function. Although […]

Kavli Affiliate: Eric Halgren | Authors: Charles W Dickey, Ilya A Verzhbinsky, Sophie Kajfez, Burke Q Rosen, Sandipan Pati and Eric Halgren | Summary: Abstract The co-occurrence of brief ~90 Hz oscillations (co-ripples) may be important in integrating information across the cortex and hippocampus, essential for sleep consolidation, and cognition in general. However, how such […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mark Ellisman | Authors: George A. Spirou, Matthew Kersting, Sean Carr, Bayan Razzaq, Carolyna Y. Alves-Pinto, Mariah Dawson, Mark H. Ellisman and Paul B. Manis | Summary: Abstract Bushy neurons of the cochlear nucleus encode temporal fine structure and modulation of sound with high fidelity. However, the synaptic maps and electrotonic structures that […]
