Extracting Value Coding Features from Individual Serotonin Neurons

The authors used a Bayesian modeling framework to fit behavior and serotonin neuron activity to reward history across multiple timescales. A key goal was to distinguish value coding from other ...

Motor protein 'hook' reveals how neurons deliver cargo with precision

For decades, scientists have known that motor proteins like kinesin-2 ferry vital cargo along microtubule "highways" inside ...

Neuron7 combines deterministic AI with autonomous reasoning to prevent agent hallucinations

Patel said this is because of Neuro’s fundamentally different architecture. He explained that it uses deterministic guided ...

First ever atlas of brain development shows how stem cells turn into neurons

A collection of studies that chart how mammalian brain cells grow and differentiate is a ‘very valuable’ tool for ...

7 Tesla MRI reveals how the human brain anticipates and regulates the body's needs

Using an ultra-high-resolution imaging technology called 7 Tesla functional MRI (fMRI) on human participants, researchers ...

3D atlas merges brain dissection and imaging for detailed white matter mapping

BraDiPho (Brain Dissection Photogrammetry) is an innovative tool for the study of white matter connections in the human brain. The realistic map was developed by a group of researchers from the ...
