FGF and retinoic acid activity gradients control the timing of neural crest cell emigration in the trunk [PDF]
Coordination between functionally related adjacent tissues is essential during development. For example, formation of trunk neural crest cells (NCCs) is highly influenced by the adjacent mesoderm, but the molecular mechanism involved is not well ...

A Neural Pathway for Nonreinforced Preference Change [PDF]
How is value processed in the brain to inform decision making? A plethora of studies describe how preferences are shaped by experience with external reinforcements. While research on this reinforced pathway is well established, far less research has explored the neural pathways promoting preference change in the absence of external reinforcements. Here,

Reviewing the mechanism of propofol addiction
Propofol is widely used as a short-acting intravenous anaesthetic for the induction and maintenance of anaesthetic sedation. The application of propofol is expanding due to its advantages and the increasing demand for painless diagnosis and treatment ...

Cognitive Neural Prosthetics: Brain Machine Interfaces Based in Parietal Cortex [PDF]
Systems neuroscience has recently emerged as an applied field in the form of neural prosthetic development. This integration of empirical systems neuroscience with engineering in order to develop functional interfaces between external devices and the ...

Molecular mechanisms separating two axonal pathways during embryonic development of the avian optic tectum [PDF]
During embryonic development of the avian optic tectum, retinal and tectobulbar axons form an orthogonal array of nerve processes. Growing axons of both tracts are transiently very closely apposed to each other. Despite this spatial proximity, axons from

Building and manipulating neural pathways with microfluidics [PDF]
Communication between different brain regions, and between local circuits in the same brain region, is an important area of study for basic and translational neuroscience research. Selective and chronic manipulation of one of the components in a given neural pathway is frequently required for development and plasticity studies.

Anatomically distinct areas within the basal ganglia encode flexible- and stable-value memories for visual objects (Hikosaka et al., 2014), but an important question remains: do they receive inputs from the same or different brain areas or neurons?

Postnatal development of retrosplenial projections to the parahippocampal region of the rat
The rat parahippocampal region (PHR) and retrosplenial cortex (RSC) are cortical areas important for spatial cognition. In PHR, head-direction cells are present before eye-opening, earliest detected in postnatal day (P)11 animals.
