Neuroscience: Hacking development to understand sensory discrimination
Fine sensory discrimination abilities are enabled by specific neural circuit architectures. A new study reveals how manipulating particular network parameters in the fly's memory centre, the mushroom body, alters sensory coding and discrimination.

Late-Onset MS: Disease Course and Safety-Efficacy of DMTS
Multiple sclerosis (MS), an inflammatory demyelinating and neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system, usually begins between the ages of 20 and 49 years, though in rare cases it is diagnosed in childhood and adolescence before the age of 18

Evidence for vibration coding of sliding tactile textures in auditory cortex
IntroductionPsychophysical studies suggest texture perception is mediated by spatial and vibration codes (duplex theory). Vibration coding, driven by relative motion between digit and stimulus, is involved in the perception of very fine gratings whereas ...

State-dependent representations of mixtures by the olfactory bulb
Sensory systems are often tasked to analyse complex signals from the environment, separating relevant from irrelevant parts. This process of decomposing signals is challenging when a mixture of signals does not equal the sum of its parts, leading to an ...

The Input-Output Relationship of AIY Interneurons in Caenorhabditis elegans in Noisy Environment
Summary: Determining how neurotransmitter input causes various neuronal activities is crucial to understanding neuronal information processing. In Caenorhabditis elegans, AIY interneurons receive several sources of sensory information as glutamate inputs

Emergence of functional sensory subtypes as defined by transient receptor potential channel expression [PDF]
The existence of heterogeneous populations of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons conveying different somatosensory information is the basis for the perception of touch, temperature, and pain. A differential expression of transient receptor potential (TRP)

Perspectives on sensory processing disorder: a call for translational research
This article explores the convergence of two fields, which have similar theoretical origins: a clinical field originally known as sensory integration and a branch of neuroscience that conducts research in an area also called sensory integration ...

Neuroscience: From Sensory Discrimination to Choice in Gustatory Cortex [PDF]
Sensory areas have been shown to be influenced by higher-order cognitive processes. Yet how do these top-down processes affect decisions? A recent study has revealed a dynamic evolution of neural activity from sensory discrimination to choice in rodent taste cortex.
