Prolactin Shapes Cortical Plasticity in Fathers

This study shows that fatherhood in male mice enhances auditory cortex plasticity through prolactin signaling, improving pup vocalization discrimination.

Spinal dI2 interneurons regulate the stability of bipedal stepping

This study identifies dI2 spinal interneurons in chicks that regulate bipedal stepping stability by integrating peripheral and intraspinal feedback.

Natural loss of function of ephrin-B3 shapes spinal flight circuitry in birds

This study shows that the loss of ephrin-B3 function in birds shapes spinal flight circuitry by enabling synchronous wing flapping through altered midline signaling.
