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

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 ...

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
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 ...

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
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.

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]
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
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 ...

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
