​ ​Animals must make crucial behavioural choices on a minute by minute basis to survive in a changing environment. A long-standing enigma is, how are alternative options evaluated in the brain...

Episodic memories are highly dynamic and change in nonlinear ways over time. This dynamism is not captured by existing systems consolidation theories …

Two high-profile tools have been shown to make up data and “p-hack” their results

With so little money to go round, the costs of competing for grants can exceed what the grants are worth. When that happens, nobody wins.

Brain-body interactions are essential for physical and emotional homeostasis. The brain uses information from the external world to predict upcoming bodily changes. This process involves interoceptive...

What do we know about the causes of autism?

Garcia et al. present RESPAN, a pipeline that enables automated dendritic spine analysis through seamless integration of deep learning image restoration and segmentation capabilities with comprehensiv...

Long known for different circuit roles, parvalbumin and somatostatin interneurons are shown by Morabito et al.,1 in this issue of Neuron, to differ in…

Chini Lab at GIGA–ULiège. We study how neural activity emerges in early development from a systems neuroscience perspective.

Morphogen gradients provide the patterning cues that instruct cell fate decisions during development. Here, we establish an optogenetic system for the…

Our current approach is largely arbitrary. We need new methods for grouping cells, ideally by their dynamics.

Abstract. Large-scale genomic studies of schizophrenia implicate genes involved in the epigenetic regulation of transcription by histone methylation and ge

AbstractBackground and Hypothesis. SETD1A, a histone methyltransferase, is implicated in schizophrenia through rare loss-of-function mutations. While SETD1

Neocortical circuits use synaptic and intrinsic forms of homeostatic plasticity to stabilize key features of network activity, but whether these di...

Synaptic plasticity is the basis of learning and memory, but the link between synaptic changes and neural function remains elusive. Here, we used automated search algorithms to obtain thousands of str...
