The Ontogenetic Development of Rapid Eye Movement Sleep in Early Life and Its Regulatory Mechanisms
REM sleep was first identified in humans and cats in the late 1950s and exhibits a conserved developmental trajectory across species. This study elucidates key characteristic changes during REM sleep development, thereby providing a foundation for improving the prevention and treatment of various neurodevelopmental disorders.

A rare case of facial nerve schwannoma masked by a concomitant temporomandibular disorder pain
Facial nerve schwannoma (FNS) is an uncommon benign tumor that arises from the Schwann cells of the facial nerve (FN). Although rare, this is the most frequent type of FN tumor, potentially affecting any segment of the nerve.

Impact of visual callosal pathway is dependent upon ipsilateral thalamus
The visual callosal pathway reciprocally connects mammalian visual cortices and is proposed to facilitate activation of binocular neurons. Here, the authors show that this pathway facilitates responses in both monocular and binocular neurons but these ...

Correlated Size Variations in Human Visual Cortex, Lateral Geniculate Nucleus, and Optic Tract
We have examined several components of the human visual system to determine how the dimensions of the optic tract, lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN), and primary visual cortex (V1) vary within the same brain.

Modern AI systems can now synthesize coherent multimedia experiences, generating video and audio directly from text prompts. These unified frameworks represent a rapid shift toward controllable and synchronized content creation. From early neural architectures to transformer and diffusion paradigms, this paper contextualizes the ongoing evolution of ...

Functional modulation of primary visual cortex by the superior colliculus in the mouse
The role of the superior colliculus (SC) in modulating V1 cortical activity is not clear. Here, the authors demonstrate the functional role of SC in modulating V1 responses through an excitatory pathway via the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus.

Rules of Connectivity between Geniculate Cells and Simple Cells in Cat Primary Visual Cortex
Hundreds of thalamic axons ramify within a column of cat visual cortex; yet each layer 4 neuron receives input from only a fraction of them. We have examined the specificity of these connections by recording simultaneously from layer 4 simple cells and ...

Bacterial Communities Associated With Crustose Coralline Algae Are Host‐Specific
Fifteen Indo‐Pacific crustose coralline algae (CCA) species surface microbial communities were characterised with 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing and are distinct. The CCA surface microbiome primarily differentiate by algal host species, but core bacterial communities additionally correlated to host phylogeny.

Megacylops viridis Jurine, abyssal form in Lake Maggiore. [Translation of: Memorie dell'Istituto Italiano di Idrobiologia Dott.Marco de Marchi 17 57-79, 1964] [PDF]
Megacyclops viridis Jurine, noticed in Lago Maggiore in 1912 by De Marchi from the littoral vegetation of Pallanza, is a normal member of the littoral plankton of the lake.
