This study identifies median preoptic Brs3-expressing neurons as regulators of heat-evoked defensive escalation in mice through behavioral and optogenetic experiments.

The paper uses single-cell multi-omics to study early cardiac lineage specification in mouse embryos, identifying key transcription factors and regulatory networks.

The paper maps single cortical neurons across the human brain to profile morphological diversity and stereotypy using a new tomography approach.

Complete morphologies of 1,708 neurons, sparsely labelled and imaged whole-brain with fMOST, expose region-specific long-range projection rules and finer diversity than current transcriptomic subtypes capture.

The paper introduces TeraVR, a virtual reality system for precise 3-D neuronal morphology reconstruction in whole mouse brains, enabling collaborative and efficient annotation of complex neuronal structures.
