This study uses IntelliCage to show that postpartum female mice outperform pregnant and nulliparous females in spatial learning and cognitive flexibility tasks.

The paper identifies inhibitory calbindin-expressing neurons in the lateral septum involved in maternal pup-licking behavior and shows their connectivity with maternal regulatory brain regions.

The paper identifies a thalamic-hypothalamic circuit mediating social touch suppression of aggression in rodents using chemogenetic and optogenetic manipulations.

The paper shows adult human astrocytes lack key mitochondrial proteins needed for oxidative phosphorylation, leading to lactate production instead of OXPHOS.

The paper identifies a thalamo-preoptic pathway that controls social touch by bypassing the cerebral cortex, involving PTH2-expressing neurons and a conserved circuit across species.

This study identifies gene expression changes in the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex of suicide victims compared to controls, highlighting pathways related to cytokine and glutamatergic signaling.
