Fish welfare in a changing world: New developments and current challenges

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The welfare of non‐human animals is central to ethical discussions on animal use, with increasing attention to fish welfare across research, aquaria, aquaculture, and fisheries. This paper reviews current theoretical approaches to animal welfare and recent advances in defining and assessing fish welfare since the seminal paper by Huntingford ...

Virtual brain endocasts of the palaeanodont Metacheiromys marshi and the neurosensory evolution of early Pholidotamorpha

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We describe the endocranial anatomy of Metacheiromys marshi. Decrease in olfaction and eye movement control occurred through time in Pholidotamorpha and is likely linked to fossorial adaptations. The development of the orbital gyrus might be related to the evolution of myrmecophagy and the emergence of a protrusile tongue in early Pholidotamorpha ...

Tonotopically distinct OFF responses arise in the mouse auditory midbrain following sideband suppression

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Sounds of different frequencies elicit spatially distinct patterns of neural activity within the inferior colliculus aligned to the tonotopic organization of afferent projections. Sound‐evoked neural responses can be visualized in awake mice that express fluorescent Ca2+ sensors.

Effect of Auditory Predictability on the Human Peripheral Auditory System

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Auditory perception is facilitated by prior knowledge about the statistics of the acoustic environment. Predictions about upcoming auditory stimuli are processed at various stages along the human auditory pathway, including the cortex and midbrain ...

Astrocyte reactivity modifies the effects of locus coeruleus norepinephrine‐related dysfunction on tau and its impact on cognition

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Animal models demonstrated that pharmacologically‐induced lesioning of the locus coeruleus (LC), the brain's primary source of norepinephrine, triggered astrocyte reactivity, exacerbating Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology and cognitive deficits.

Drivers and modulators in the central auditory pathways

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2010
The classic view of auditory information flow depicts a simple serial route from the periphery through tonotopically-organized nuclei in the brainstem, midbrain and thalamus, ascending eventually to the neocortex.

Menopausal insomnia as a modifiable node of dementia risk: Mechanistic insights and intervention strategies

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The menopausal transition is often accompanied by neuropsychiatric symptoms such as sleep disturbances, representing a modifiable window for Alzheimer's disease and related dementia (ADRD) prevention. Current preventive strategies fail to address the heterogeneity of postmenopausal cognitive trajectories, where some women exhibit rapid ...

Dynamic Spectrotemporal Feature Selectivity in the Auditory Midbrain [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2008
The transformation of auditory information from the cochlea to the cortex is a highly nonlinear process. Studies using tone stimuli have revealed that changes in even the most basic parameters of the auditory stimulus can alter neural response properties; for example, a change in stimulus intensity can cause a shift in a neuron's preferred frequency ...

Speech Processing Disorder in Neural Hearing Loss

open access: yesCase Reports in Medicine, 2012
Deficits in central auditory processing may occur in a variety of clinical conditions including traumatic brain injury, neurodegenerative disease, auditory neuropathy/dyssynchrony syndrome, neurological disorders associated with aging, and aphasia ...

Wisteria Floribunda Agglutinin-Labeled Perineuronal Nets in the Mouse Inferior Colliculus, Thalamic Reticular Nucleus and Auditory Cortex

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2016
Perineuronal nets (PNNs) are specialized extracellular matrix molecules that are associated with the closing of the critical period, among other functions. In the adult brain, PNNs surround specific types of neurons, however the expression of PNNs in the
