Serotonin modulates neuroplasticity, especially during early life, and dysfunctions in both
systems likewise contribute to pathophysiology of depression. Recent findings demonstrate …

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a set of neurodevelopmental disorders with a high
prevalence and impact on society. ASDs are characterized by deficits in both social behavior …

Synaptic plasticity in adult neural circuits may involve the strengthening or weakening of
existing synapses as well as structural plasticity, including synapse formation and …

To understand the cellular and circuit mechanisms of experience-dependent plasticity,
neurons and their synapses need to be studied in the intact brain over extended periods of …

The fourth edition of Fundamental Neuroscience reinvents itself as an engrossing and
comprehensive presentation of the discipline of neuroscience, from molecules to cognition …

Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is an autosomal dominant disorder that affects multiple
organ systems due to an inactivating variant in either TSC1 or TSC2, resulting in the …

Recent laboratory findings suggest that it might be possible to promote cerebral plasticity
and neurological recovery after stroke by use of exogenous pharmacological or cell-based …

Synapses are the fundamental units of neuronal circuits. Synaptic plasticity can occur
through changes in synaptic strength, as well as through the addition/removal of synapses …

Recent advances in genetics and genomics have unveiled numerous cases of autism
spectrum disorders (ASDs) associated with rare, causal genetic variations. These findings …

Since the work of Golgi and Cajal, light microscopy has remained a key tool for
neuroscientists to observe cellular properties. Ongoing advances have enabled new …
