Tremendous progress has been made since Neuron published our Primer on genetic
dissection of neural circuits 10 years ago. Since then, cell-type-specific anatomical …

The nervous system regulates immunity and inflammation. The molecular detection of
pathogen fragments, cytokines, and other immune molecules by sensory neurons generates …

INTRODUCTION Glial cells of the central nervous system (CNS), including astrocytes and
microglia, play critical roles in development, tissue repair, and homeostasis. However …

INTRODUCTION Cells and tissues are made up of diverse molecular building blocks,
organized with nanoscale precision over extended length scales. Newly developed …

The stereotyped spatial architecture of the brain is both beautiful and fundamentally related
to its function, extending from gross morphology to individual neuron types, where soma …

The idea of technological singularity, and what it would mean if ordinary human intelligence
were enhanced or overtaken by artificial intelligence. The idea that human history is …

Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (RFMRI) enables researchers to
monitor fluctuations in the spontaneous brain activities of thousands of regions in the human …

Cellular specialization is particularly prominent in mammalian nervous systems, which are
composed of millions to billions of neurons that appear in thousands of different'flavors' and …

Neurons transmit information to distant brain regions via long-range axonal projections. In
the mouse, area-to-area connections have only been systematically mapped using bulk …

Cellular barcoding is a technique in which individual cells are labeled with unique nucleic
acid sequences, termed barcodes, so that they can be tracked through space and time …
