The paper examines neural population dynamics in the dorsal and ventral cervical spinal cord during reaching, finding shared dynamics across these regions despite differences in single-neuron activity.

This study investigates how spinal interneurons encode static hindlimb posture in cats by analyzing neuronal activity during robotic limb positioning.

The paper shows that amygdala neurons regulate dopamine neurons via disinhibition in rewarding environments, linking environmental context to basal ganglia circuits.

This study shows that the central amygdala (CeA) controls saccades and gaze direction based on emotional and social contexts through inactivation and optogenetic stimulation in monkeys.
