The brain’s cognitive capabilities, including perception, reasoning, learning, and decision-making, arise from the complex interplay among neuronal circuits. These circuits possess topologies and ...

Heterogeneity among somatosensory neurons is necessary for internal and external sensation. Precise patterns of gene transcription orchestrated through enhancer activation maintain heterogeneity. Thus ...

Closely related subtypes of dopamine-releasing neurons may play entirely separate roles in processing sensory information, depending on their physical structure. New research from the Institute of ...
