Contribution of Rat Insular Cortex to Stimulus-Guided Action
Anticipating rewards is fundamental for decision-making. Animals often use cues to assess reward availability and to make predictions about future outcomes. The gustatory region of the insular cortex (IC), the so-called gustatory cortex, has a wel...

Volitional Regulation and Transferable Patterns of Midbrain Oscillations
Dopaminergic brain areas are crucial for cognition and their dysregulation is linked to neuropsychiatric disorders typically treated with pharmacological interventions. These treatments often have side effects and variable effectiveness, underscor...

Downmodulation of Potassium Conductances Induces Epileptic Seizures in Cortical Network Models Via Multiple Synergistic Factors
Voltage-gated potassium conductances gK play a critical role not only in normal neural function, but also in many neurological disorders and related therapeutic interventions. In particular, in an important animal model of epileptic seizures, 4-am...

Neuroendocrine Control of Synaptic Transmission by PHAC-1 in C. elegans
A dynamic interplay between fast synaptic signals and slower neuromodulatory signals controls the excitatory/inhibitory (E/I) balance within neuronal circuits. The mechanisms by which neuropeptide signaling is regulated to maintain E/I balance rem...

Parkinsonism Disrupts Neuronal Modulation in the Presupplementary Motor Area during Movement Preparation
Multiple studies suggest that Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with changes in neuronal activity throughout the basal ganglia-thalamocortical motor circuit. There are limited electrophysiological data, however, describing how parkinsonism im...

Common and Unique Neurophysiological Processes That Support the Stopping and Revising of Actions
Inhibitory control is a crucial cognitive-control ability for behavioral flexibility, which has been extensively investigated through action-stopping tasks. Multiple neurophysiological features have been proposed as "signatures" of inhibitory cont...

Identification of a Novel Population of Neuromedin S Expressing Neurons in the Ventral Tegmental Area That Promote Morphine-Elicited Behavior
Opioid use disorder constitutes a major health and economic burden, but our limited understanding of the underlying neurobiology impedes better interventions. Alteration in the activity and output of dopamine (DA) neurons in the ventral tegmental ...
