In order for locomotion to occur, a complex pattern of muscle activation is required. For more
than a century, it has been known that the timing and pattern of stepping movements in …

Simple Summary Relevant brain functions, such as perception, organization of behavior,
and cognitive processes, are the outcome of information processing by neural circuits …

Electrical synapses play a major role in setting up neuronal synchronization, but the precise
mechanisms whereby these synapses contribute to synchrony are subtle and remain …

Parental behavior is pervasive throughout the animal kingdom and essential for species
survival. However, the relative contribution of the father to offspring care differs markedly …

Wave-based analog computation platforms hold the promise of realizing intelligent
information processing with high speed and low computational cost, but current design …

Electrical synapses supported by gap junctions are known to form networks of electrically
coupled neurons in many regions of the mammalian brain, where they play relevant …

Transgenic mouse lines are instrumental in our attempt to understand brain function.
Promoters driving transgenic expression of the gene encoding Cre recombinase are crucial …

The relationship between neuronal impulse activity and neurotransmitter release remains
elusive. This issue is especially poorly understood in the neuroendocrine system, with its …

Microglial cells were eliminated from the brain with sustained 3–4 weeks long inhibition of
colony stimulating factor 1 receptor by Pexidartinib 3397 (PLX3397). The prepartum treated …

A century worth of research has linked multiple cognitive, perceptual and behavioral states
to various brain oscillations. However, the mechanistic roles and circuit underpinnings of …
