According to the encoding specificity hypothesis, memory is best recalled by retrieval cues that overlap with training cues. Human studies generally s......
Mammals form mental maps of the environments by exploring their surroundings. Here, we investigate which elements of exploration are important for thi......
The brain constantly adapts to changes in the environment, a capability that underlies memory and behavior. Long-term adaptations require the remodeli......
Interoception, i.e. the perception of the organism physiological state, jointly operates with perception and cognition, including when homeostatic bal......
Pain and itch are two closely related but essentially distinct sensations that elicit different behavioral responses. However, it remains mysterious h......
An AI and robotics researcher, and an entrepreneur, Hanan Salam tells Neuron about her work on Artificial Social Intelligence and experience as the co......
People are multi-faceted, typically good at some things but bad at others, and a critical aspect of social judgement is the ability to focus on those ......
The field of brain machine interface has long sought a technology for brainwide interaction. In this issue of Neuron, Kim et al.(1) present a novel me......
In this issue of Neuron, Berg et al.1 investigate the functional contribution of two molecularly distinct subpop-ulations of spinal-projecting midbrai......
Wolf Singer has long been interested in neural dynamics, synchrony, and temporal codes. On his 80th birthday, he talks with Neuron about his seminal c......
In multiple sclerosis, an inflammatory attack results in myelin loss, which can be partially reversed by remye-lination. Recent studies suggest that m......
Aberrant low y-secretase activity is associated with most of the presenilin mutations that underlie familial Alz-heimer's disease (fAD). However, the ......
Toxic proteinaceous deposits and alterations in excitability and activity levels characterize vulnerable neuronal populations in neurodegenerative dis......
The expression of defensive responses to alerting sensory cues requires both general arousal and a specific arousal state associated with defensive em......
