Ablation of Ventral Midbrain/Pons GABA Neurons Induces Mania-like Behaviors with Altered Sleep Homeostasis and Dopamine D2R-mediated Sleep Reduction

open access: yesiScience, 2020
Summary: Individuals with the neuropsychiatric disorder mania exhibit hyperactivity, elevated mood, and a decreased need for sleep. The brain areas and neuronal populations involved in mania-like behaviors, however, have not been elucidated.

Neuroscience of Behavior

open access: yesNeuroSci
Behavior is not a mere sequence of responses to stimuli but the dynamic expression of internal processes such as planning, prediction, valuation, and inference. These functions arise from distributed and metabolically costly neural systems and are best understood by considering behavior and neural activity together.

Antidepressant Effects of (S)-Ketamine through a Reduction of Hyperpolarization-Activated Current Ih

open access: yesiScience, 2020
Summary: Compelling evidence suggests that a single sub-anesthetic dose of (R,S)-ketamine exerts rapid and robust antidepressant effects. However, the cellular mechanisms underlying the antidepressant effects of (R,S)-ketamine remain unclear.

Cancer‐associated mutations in endometriosis reframe a benign disease through molecular oncology

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review aims to comprehensively analyse cancer‐associated somatic mutations (CAMs) present in endometriotic lesions, emphasizing their biological roles, spatial distribution and implications for translational applications in medicine. By contextualizing a benign state within a genomic framework, this analysis seeks to establish its value as a ...

Evaluating GenAI‐produced feedback on undergraduate bioscience essays against good higher education feedback practice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This pilot study investigates the potential of Generative AI to provide formative feedback to students. ChatGPT was prompted to provide feedback on Year 1 Bioscience essays, which were evaluated against established good feedback practices. GenAI‐authored feedback had useful elements, but was limited in scope. GenAI may have potential to provide instant,
