Direct mechanical stimulation of tip links in hair cells through DNA tethers

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Mechanoelectrical transduction by hair cells commences with hair-bundle deflection, which is postulated to tense filamentous tip links connected to transduction channels.

Testing Links of Food-Related Olfactory Perception to Peripheral Ghrelin and Leptin Concentrations

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2022
The peptide hormones ghrelin and leptin play major roles in the regulation of appetite and food intake. However, the precise effects of these hormones on sensory processing remain a subject of debate, particularly with food related stimuli and its small ...

Psychometrics of Disembodiment and Its Differential Modulation by Visuomotor and Visuotactile Mismatches

open access: yesiScience, 2020
Summary: Altered states of embodiment are fundamental to the scientific understanding of bodily self consciousness. The feeling of disembodiment during everyday activities is common to clinical conditions; however, the direct study of disembodiment in ...

Sensory over-responsivity and social cognition in ASD: Effects of aversive sensory stimuli and attentional modulation on neural responses to social cues. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Sensory over-responsivity (SOR) is a common condition in autism spectrum disorders (ASD) that is associated with greater social impairment. However, the mechanisms through which sensory stimuli may affect social functioning are not well understood.

From Parallel Sequence Representations to Calligraphic Control: A Conspiracy of Neural Circuits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Calligraphic writing presents a rich set of challenges to the human movement control system. These challenges include: initial learning, and recall from memory, of prescribed stroke sequences; critical timing of stroke onsets and durations; fine control

Neurosystems: brain rhythms and cognitive processing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Neuronal rhythms are ubiquitous features of brain dynamics, and are highly correlated with cognitive processing. However, the relationship between the physiological mechanisms producing these rhythms and the functions associated with the rhythms remains ...

A connexin30 mutation rescues hearing and reveals roles for gap junctions in cochlear amplification and micromechanics

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
A point mutation in the gap-junction protein connexin 30 stops early onset age-related hearing loss. Here, the authors show that gap junctions contribute to cochlear micromechanics and that cochlear amplification is likely controlled by extracellular ...

Sequential Sparsening by Successive Adaptation in Neural Populations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In the principal cells of the insect mushroom body, the Kenyon cells (KC), olfactory information is represented by a spatially and temporally sparse code.

The indirect corticopontine pathway relays perioral sensory signals to the cerebellum via the mesodiencephalic junction

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: In the cerebro–cerebellar loop, outputs from the cerebral cortex are thought to be transmitted via monosynaptic corticopontine gray (PG) pathways and subsequently relayed to the cerebellum.
