Thalamic activation modulates the responses of neurons in rat primary auditory cortex: an in vivo intracellular recording study. [PDF]
Auditory cortical plasticity can be induced through various approaches. The medial geniculate body (MGB) of the auditory thalamus gates the ascending auditory inputs to the cortex.

Three and Four Courses of Radiation for Children with Recurrent Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma
ABSTRACT Purpose Re‐irradiation (RT2) for children with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is increasingly used upon recurrence; however, limited data are available for evaluating additional courses of radiotherapy (RT) for DIPG. The purpose of this case series was to report our institutional experience in treating patients with recurrent DIPG ...

A progressive tremorgenic syndrome characterised by ataxia and head nodding is well documented in sheep and cattle affected by chronic Phalaris toxicosis (CPT), and is increasingly documented in the eastern grey kangaroo {(EGK), Macropus giganteus} in southeastern Australia.

Distribution and characterisation of Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor expressing cells in the mouse brain. [PDF]
© 2015 The Authors.Objective: Although Glucagon-like peptide 1 is a key regulator of energy metabolism and food intake, the precise location of GLP-1 receptors and the physiological relevance of certain populations is debatable.

A Contrast Synthesized Thalamic Nuclei Segmentation Scheme using Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]
Thalamic nuclei have been implicated in several neurological diseases. WMn-MPRAGE images have been shown to provide better intra-thalamic nuclear contrast compared to conventional MPRAGE images but the additional acquisition results in increased examination times.

Task-dependent modulation of the visual sensory thalamus assists visual-speech recognition [PDF]
The cerebral cortex modulates early sensory processing via feed-back connections to sensory pathway nuclei. The functions of this top-down modulation for human behavior are poorly understood. Here, we show that top-down modulation of the visual sensory thalamus (the lateral geniculate body, LGN) is involved in visual-speech recognition.

The futuristic manifolds of REM sleep
Summary Since one of its first descriptions 70 years ago, rapid eye movement sleep has continually inspired and excited new generations of sleep researchers. Despite significant advancements in understanding its neurocircuitry, underlying mechanisms and microstates, many questions regarding its function, especially beyond the early neurodevelopment ...

Impact of aging on the auditory system and related cognitive functions: A narrative review [PDF]
Age-related hearing loss (ARHL), presbycusis, is a chronic health condition that affects approximately one-third of the world’s population. The peripheral and central hearing alterations associated with age-related hearing loss have a profound impact on ...

Sleep neuroimaging: Review and future directions
Summary Sleep research has evolved considerably since the first sleep electroencephalography recordings in the 1930s and the discovery of well‐distinguishable sleep stages in the 1950s. While electrophysiological recordings have been used to describe the sleeping brain in much detail, since the 1990s neuroimaging techniques have been applied to uncover
