Visual processing is dynamically controlled by multiple neuromodulatory molecules that modify the responsiveness of neurons and the strength of the connections between them. In …
Interindividual variation in behavior and brain activity is universal and provides substrates for natural selection [1–9]. Selective pressures shift the expression of behavioral traits at the …
The serotonergic system has been widely studied across animal taxa and different functional networks. This modulatory system is therefore well positioned to compare the consequences …
The 5-hydroxytrptamine 3 (5-HT3) receptor is a member of the'Cys-loop'family and the only pentameric ligand gated ion channel among the serotonin receptors. 5-HT3 receptors play …
Gastropod mollusks are known for their large, individually identifiable neurons, which are amenable to long-term intracellular recordings that can be repeated from animal to animal …

The geneticist Thomas Dobzhansky famously declared:'Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution'. A key evolutionary adaptation of Metazoa is directed …
Neuropeptides play essential roles in coordinating reproduction. Egg-laying hormone (ELH) is conserved in genetic sequence and behavioral function across molluscs, where neuronal …
