The past several years have brought revelations and paradigm shifts in research on the
cerebellum. Historically viewed as a simple sensorimotor controller with homogeneous …

Brain function relies on the ability of neurons to communicate with each other. Interneuronal
communication primarily takes place at synapses, where information from one neuron is …

Synaptic vesicle recycling has long served as a model for the general mechanisms of
cellular trafficking. We used an integrative approach, combining quantitative immunoblotting …

When animals interact with complex environments, their neural circuits must separate
overlapping patterns of activity that represent sensory and motor information. Pattern …

The cerebellar cortex is an important system for relating neural circuits and learning. Its
promise reflects the longstanding idea that it contains simple, repeated circuit modules with …

The structure of the brain as a product of morphogenesis is difficult to reconcile with the
observed complexity of cerebral connectivity. We therefore analyzed relationships of …

Acquisition, analysis and simulation of electrophysiological properties of the nervous system
require multiple software packages. This makes it difficult to conserve experimental …

The cerebellum is a central brain structure deeply integrated into major loops with the
cerebral cortex, brainstem, and spinal cord. The cerebellum shows a complex regional …

Electrical synapses are found in vertebrate and invertebrate nervous systems. The cellular
basis of these synapses is the gap junction, a group of intercellular channels that mediate …

Insect asynchronous flight is one of the most prevalent forms of animal locomotion used by
more than 600,000 species. Despite profound insights into the motor patterns …
