Membrane Tension Maintains a United Front - Using his own neutrophils, Orion Weiner demonstrates how physical forces and not diffusible factors ensure that migrating cells have a single leading edge....
miRNA, Notch, and Amygdala-Dependent Fear Learning
In this video, Dias et al. summarize data that shows that a microRNA in the amygdala (miR-34a) regulates Notch signaling after auditory fear conditioning. Their work makes a case for this interaction ...
Fear Signals from Predators - Mice exhibit fear behavior towards predators, or simply predator odors, even without prior exposure to these predators. Watch and listen as Lisa Stowers and Fabio Papes t...
Baron Chanda and colleagues describe the principles for temperature gating in ion channels and how temperature-insensitive channels can be made cold or heat responsive....

DeCoN: High-Throughput Investigation of the Cortical Transcriptome - Decoding the signals that shape and maintain the extraordinary neuronal diversity of the mammalian cortex remains a challenge. In t...
Memory Enhancement by Targeting NR2B Cell Surface Regulation
Many neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, are characterized by learning and memory deficits, for which cognitive enhancement is considered a valid treatment strategy. Plattner and coll...
Spatial Attention Attracts Receptive Fields Throughout the Human Visual Brain
Spatial Attention Attracts Receptive Fields Throughout the Human Visual Brain. We use attention to focus on relevant visual INFORMATION. Using human neuroimaging and modeling, Klein et al demonstrate ...
Restoring Reality Monitoring in Schizophrenia - Reality monitoring, the ability to distinguish internally generated information from external experiences, is impaired in schizophrenia patients. In an ...
