The paper benchmarks the Fast and Efficient Mixed-Effects Algorithm (FEMA) against conventional mixed-effects modeling for longitudinal neuroimaging data and finds high concordance with minor differences in variance component estimates.

The paper uses voltage imaging to show ongoing action potential firing in nociceptor terminals in healthy mice, revealing electrical activity in peripheral axons.

The paper shows that abstract hippocampal representations predict the use of structure-based behavioral strategies in mice during learning.

The paper investigates associations between oculomotor responses during an oddball task and CSF biomarkers in MCI patients, finding p-Tau levels correlate with reduced cognitive vergence and pupil differentiation.

This study examines neural and endocrine stress responses across menstrual cycle phases in women with and without PMS, finding no significant group or phase effects but suggesting symptom severity may influence brain activation.

The paper shows that attention can alter the perceived duration of stimulus frames, with greater effects when one frame is more salient.

The paper shows that mouse neural organoids can replicate the synaptic proteome of mature brains through optimized protocols and proteomics analysis.

The paper uses representational similarity learning to show that multidimensional semantic information is encoded across multiple frequencies in human ventral anterior temporal lobe.

This study examines how age and task performance influence frontoparietal effective connectivity during a visuospatial working memory task in children.

The paper compares somatic mutation rates and transcriptomic changes in neurons across six mammalian species, finding higher mutation accumulation and distinct age-related dysregulation in human neurons.

This study evaluates the Temple Brain Flow Index from a wearable device against depth-resolved NIRS data during postural changes, showing stronger correlation with brain-layer hemodynamics than scalp-layer.

This study investigates how social experience alters transcriptional and chromatin states in Drosophila brains through pheromone circuits and transcription factors.

This study shows ASCL1 controls glial cell fate and regional diversity in the dorsal forebrain by regulating OLIG2 expression and maintaining OPCs.

This study investigates how murine β-coronavirus infection affects oligodendrocyte survival and communication, identifying a novel ERK2 phosphorylation site on Cx47.

This study characterizes the morphological development of white matter astrocytes in mice, showing distinct developmental trajectories and structural features compared to gray matter astrocytes.

The paper investigates inhibitory dynamics in PV and SST interneurons in mouse visual cortex, finding PV interneurons exhibit ISN-like properties while SST interneurons show different response dynamics.

The paper investigates microglial dysfunction in anorexia nervosa using patient-derived iPSCs and an animal model, finding altered synaptic interactions and signaling in hypothalamic circuits.

The paper shows that cadaverine activates trigeminal chemosensation in zebrafish, leading to a persistent behavioral state through pH sensing, independent of olfaction.

This paper identifies a prefrontal cortex-hypothalamus circuit that bidirectionally controls heart rate in non-human primates and shows its role in cognitive decision-making.
