Transient Upregulation of Procaspase-3 during Oligodendrocyte Fate Decisions
Oligodendrocytes are generated throughout life and in neurodegenerative conditions from brain resident oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs). The transition from OPC to oligodendrocyte involves a complex cascade of molecular and morphological sta...

Disentangling the Component Processes in Complex Planning Impairments Following Ventromedial Prefrontal Lesions
Damage to the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) in humans disrupts planning abilities in naturalistic settings. However, it is unknown which components of planning are affected in these patients, including selecting the relevant information, ...

KV1 Channels Enable Myelinated Axons to Transmit Spikes Reliably without Spiking Ectopically
Action potentials (spikes) are regenerated at each node of Ranvier during saltatory transmission along a myelinated axon. The high density of voltage-gated sodium channels required by nodes to reliably transmit spikes increases the risk of ectopic...

Time Persistence of the FMRI Resting-State Functional Brain Networks
Time persistence is a fundamental property of many complex physical and biological systems; thus understanding the phenomenon in the brain is of high importance. Time persistence has been explored at the level of stand-alone neural time-series, bu...

The Representation of Stimulus Features during Stable Fixation and Active Vision
Predictive updating of an object's spatial coordinates from presaccade to postsaccade contributes to stable visual perception. Whether object features are predictively remapped remains contested. We set out to characterize the spatiotemporal dynam...

Neurons of the Central Nucleus of the Amygdala That Express Angiotensin Type 2 Receptors Couple Lowered Blood Pressure with Anxiolysis in Male Mice
Relief from psychological stress confers cardio-protection by altering brain activity and lowering blood pressure; however, the neuronal circuits orchestrating these effects are unknown. Here, we used male mice to discern neuronal circuits conferr...

Mapping Eye, Arm, and Reward Information in Frontal Motor Cortices Using Electrocorticography in Nonhuman Primates
Goal-directed reaches give rise to dynamic neural activity across the brain as we move our eyes and arms and process outcomes. High spatiotemporal resolution mapping of multiple cortical areas will improve our understanding of how these neural com...

From Circuits to Lifespan: Translating Mouse and Human Timelines with Neuroimaging-Based Tractography
Animal models are commonly used to investigate developmental processes and disease risk, but humans and model systems (e.g., mice) differ substantially in the pace of development and aging. The timeline of human developmental circuits is well know...
