In mice, a sparse population of sleep-active long-range inhibitory neurons in the neocortex promote widespread cortical synchronization and sleep, revealing a cortical mechanism that co...

An imaging system developed to record cellular activity throughout the whole body of zebrafish captures cellular organ dynamics and identifies multiple distributed circuits.

Identification of each animal in a collective becomes possible even when individuals are never all visible simultaneously, enabling faster and more accurate analysis of collective behavior.

In the fly central complex, PFNa neurons switch from firing classical sodium spikes when depolarized to firing non-canonical T-type calcium spikes when hyperpolarized. This bidirectional spiking allow...

Opportunities and pitfalls of large-scale models

ALT: a countdown clock with the number 10 in the center

Zocchi et al. utilize a robotic predator-learning assay to show that larval zebrafish as young as 5 days post-fertilization rapidly learn to avoid robots following predatory-like experiences. Whole-brain imaging of neural activity implicates the noradrenergic system and forebrain populations in this “conditioned robot avoidance” learning.

LLMs have revolutionized the field of artificial intelligence and have emerged as the de-facto tool for many tasks. The current established technology of...

The call for the 2025 Champalimaud Foundation's International PhD in Neuroscience will open in the first week of December 2024.

Sarah-Jayne Blakemore and her sisters knew their father, the neuroscientist Sir Colin Blakemore, had always planned to go to the Netherlands in the face of terminal motor neurone disease. But the real...
