This paper demonstrates a silicon diode device that bidirectionally modulates neural activity in vitro and in vivo through photothermal and photovoltaic effects.

The paper identifies a parabrachial-hypothalamic parallel circuit in mice that governs cold defense by activating thermogenesis and other responses.

The paper identifies two distinct neuron types in the lateral parabrachial nucleus that encode thermoregulation variables during heat defense.

This study identifies DH44+ neurons in Drosophila that detect dietary amino acids and promote food consumption through an amino acid transporter CG13248.
