Engaging and disengaging recurrent inhibition coincides with sensing and unsensing of a sensory stimulus [PDF]
, 2017 Even simple sensory stimuli evoke neural responses that are dynamic and complex. Are the temporally patterned neural activities important for controlling the behavioral output? Here, we investigated this issue.

Highly efficient neural conversion of human ES and iPS cells by dual inhibition of SMAD signaling
Nature Biotechnology, 2009 Current neural induction protocols for human embryonic stem (hES) cells rely on embryoid body formation, stromal feeder co-culture or selective survival conditions.

Developmental sensory experience balances cortical excitation and inhibition. [PDF]
, 2010 Early in life, neural circuits are highly susceptible to outside influences. The organization of the primary auditory cortex (A1) in particular is governed by acoustic experience during the critical period, an epoch near the beginning of postnatal ...

Lateral inhibition: inherent recurrent processes in coherent optical propagation [PDF]
, 1994 Processes that are analogous to the neural process of recurrent lateral inhibition can be found in optical systems that consist of a shift-invariant system and a Fabry-Perot cavity.

Dendritic Inhibition Enhances Neural Coding Properties [PDF]
Cerebral Cortex, 2001 The presence of a large number of inhibitory contacts at the soma and axon initial segment of cortical pyramidal cells has inspired a large and influential class of neural network model that use post-integration lateral inhibition as a mechanism for competition between nodes.

Simulating Cortical Feedback Modulation as Changes in Excitation and Inhibition in a Cortical Circuit Model. [PDF]
, 2016 Cortical feedback pathways are hypothesized to distribute context-dependent signals during flexible behavior. Recent experimental work has attempted to understand the mechanisms by which cortical feedback inputs modulate their target regions.

Task‐specific strength increases after lower‐limb compound resistance training occurred in the absence of corticospinal changes in vastus lateralis [PDF]
, 2020 Neural adaptations subserving strength increases have been shown to be task‐specific, but responses and adaptation to lower‐limb compound exercises such as the squat are commonly assessed in a single‐limb isometric task.

Engineering a Light-Regulated GABAA Receptor for Optical Control of Neural Inhibition
ACS Chemical Biology, 2014 Optogenetics has become an emerging technique for neuroscience investigations owing to the great spatiotemporal precision and the target selectivity it provides. Here we extend the optogenetic strategy to GABAA receptors (GABAARs), the major mediators of

Redundant neural vision systems: competing for collision recognition roles [PDF]
, 2013 Ability to detect collisions is vital for future robots that interact with humans in complex visual environments. Lobula giant movement detectors (LGMD) and directional selective neurons (DSNs) are two types of identified neurons found in the visual ...
