Connections made via apical synapses seemed to be strengthened by movement information more than those made via basal ...

RIKEN researchers have demonstrated the protective effects of a specific genetic mutation against Alzheimer's disease in ...

This valuable study shows that locomotion-related modulations in the mouse visual cortex are not uniform but primarily affect neurons in muscarinic receptor-negative patches, which receive projections ...

Reinforcement feedback promotes motor learning by enhancing retention (Huang et al., 2011). Anatomically, the brain structures playing a key role in reinforcement learning include the midbrain, ...

They note that the reductions in myelin occurred in parts of the brain that are used for motor coordination and sensory integration, and also emotion processing. They were not able to determine if ...

In conclusion, we reconstruct videos presented to mice based on the activity of neurons in the mouse visual cortex, with a ≈ 2-fold improvement in pixel-by-pixel correlation compared to previous ...
