The superior colliculus, or tectum in the case of non-mammalian vertebrates, is a part of the
brain that registers events in the surrounding space, often through vision and hearing, but …

Changes in the microbiota are associated with alterations in nervous system structure-
function and behavior and have been implicated in the etiology of neuropsychiatric and …

Flexible behaviors over long timescales are thought to engage recurrent neural networks in
deep brain regions, which are experimentally challenging to study. In insects, recurrent …

Dense reconstruction of synaptic connectivity requires high-resolution electron microscopy
images of entire brains and tools to efficiently trace neuronal wires across the volume. To …

Understanding brain-wide neuronal dynamics requires a detailed map of the underlying
circuit architecture. We built an interactive cellular-resolution atlas of the zebrafish brain at 6 …

The occurrence of neuroactive chemicals in the aquatic environment is on the rise and
poses a potential threat to aquatic biota of currently unpredictable outcome. In particular …

Until now, most brain studies have focused on small numbers of neurons that interact in
limited circuits, allowing analysis of individual computations or steps of neural processing …

Over the last several years, the use of machine learning (ML) in neuroscience has been
rapidly increasing. Here, we review ML's contributions, both realized and potential, across …

Since the time of their introduction, optical tweezers (OTs) have grown to be a powerful tool
in the hands of biologists. OTs use highly focused laser light to guide, manipulate, or sort …

Mammalian taxonomies are conventionally defined by morphological traits and genetics.
How species differ in terms of neural circuits and whether inter-species differences in neural …
