Intrinsic motivation for singing in songbirds is enhanced by temporary singing suppression and regulated by dopamine

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Behaviors driven by intrinsic motivation are critical for development and optimization of physical and brain functions, but their underlying mechanisms are not well studied due to the complexity and autonomy of the behavior.

Control of intracellular pH and bicarbonate by CO2 diffusion into human sperm

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
The reaction of CO2 with H2O to form bicarbonate (HCO3 −) and H+ controls sperm motility and fertilization via HCO3 −-stimulated cAMP synthesis. A complex network of signaling proteins participates in this reaction.
