Ultrasonic local anesthetic uncaging enables noninvasive, targeted, and transient knock-out of brain function

This paper demonstrates SonoRopi, a noninvasive method using ultrasound to transiently inhibit brain function in mice and rats.

Ultrasonic cerebrospinal fluid clearance improves outcomes in hemorrhagic brain injury models

This paper demonstrates that low-intensity transcranial focused ultrasound improves outcomes in hemorrhagic brain injury models by clearing harmful substances via the meningeal lymphatic system.

Sex dependence of opioid-mediated responses to subanesthetic ketamine

The paper shows that subanesthetic ketamine induces opioid-dependent neurophysiological and behavioral effects in male, but not female, rats.

Overnight caloric restriction prior to cardiac arrest and resuscitation leads to improved survival and neurological outcome in a rodent model

The paper shows that overnight caloric restriction before cardiac arrest and resuscitation improves survival and neurological outcomes in rodents, independent of SIRT-1 and BDNF.

Early maturational emergence of adult-like emotional reactivity and anxiety after brief exposure to an obesogenic diet

This study shows that a short-term obesogenic diet during adolescence impairs fear extinction and increases anxiety-related molecular markers, while adult rats show heightened stress reactivity.
