The zebrafish visual system has become a paradigmatic preparation for behavioral and
systems neuroscience. Around 40 types of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) serve as matched …

Pharmacology and toxicology are part of a much broader effort to understand the
relationship between chemistry and biology. While biomedicine has necessarily focused on …

The proton-electron coupling effect induces rich spectrums of electronic states in correlated
oxides, opening tempting opportunities for exploring novel devices with multifunctions. Here …

Neuronal ensembles are groups of neurons with correlated activity associated with sensory,
motor, and behavioral functions. To explore how ensembles encode information, we …

Network science provides a set of tools for the characterization of the structure and
functional behavior of complex systems. Yet a major problem is to quantify how the structural …

Larval zebrafish that are exposed repeatedly to dark looming stimuli will quickly habituate to
these aversive signals and cease to respond with their stereotypical escape swims. A dark …

The imaging of neuronal activity using calcium indicators has become a staple of modern
neuroscience. However, without ground truths, there is a real risk of missing a significant …

Cognitive decline is commonly seen both in normal aging and in neurodegenerative and
neuropsychiatric diseases. Various experimental animal models represent a valuable tool to …

Background Loss or disrupted expression of the FMR1 gene causes fragile X syndrome
(FXS), the most common monogenetic form of autism in humans. Although disruptions in …

Background Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), like many neurodevelopmental disorders, has
complex and varied etiologies. Advances in genome sequencing have identified multiple …
