This study shows that thalamic inputs to the insular cortex update representations of physiological needs like thirst and hunger, and that inhibiting these inputs prevents such updates.

The paper shows that insular cortex activity predicts glucose homeostasis by driving anticipatory insulin release and metabolic regulation.

This study uses diffusion MRI to continuously monitor microstructural brain changes during motor learning, revealing dynamic neuroplasticity patterns in specific brain regions.
