Recurrent circuits within medial entorhinal cortex superficial layers support grid cell firing
Nature Communications, 2018 Medial entorhinal cortex (mEC) neurons encode various navigation parameters such as speed, head direction, as well as grid cells. Here, the authors demonstrate that brief disruption of the local activity in mEC specifically affects grid cell tuning.

Contextual behavior and neural circuits [PDF]
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2013 Animals including humans engage in goal-directed behavior flexibly in response to items and their background, which is called contextual behavior in this review. Although the concept of context has long been studied, there are differences among researchers in defining and experimenting with the concept.

Analog integrated neural-like circuits for nonlinear programming [PDF]
, 1989 A systematic approach for the design of analog neural nonlinear programming solvers using switched-capacitor (SC) integrated circuit techniques is presented. The method is based on formulating a dynamic gradient system whose state evolves in time towards

Exercise enhances motor skill learning by neurotransmitter switching in the adult midbrain
Nature Communications, 2020 Exercise promotes motor skill learning via unclear mechanisms. Here, the authors show that running wheel training results in neurotransmitter switching in caudal pedunculopontine nucleus neurons of mice.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Selective dendritic localization of mRNA in Drosophila mushroom body output neurons
eLife, 2021 Memory-relevant neuronal plasticity is believed to require local translation of new proteins at synapses. Understanding this process requires the visualization of the relevant mRNAs within these neuronal compartments.
