In their recent Review, Fotiadis and colleagues expertly summarized recent research on structure–func...
Reply to ‘Issues of parcellation in the calculation of structure–function coupling’
We appreciate the thoughtful Correspondence from A. Turnbull, F. V. Lin and Z. Zhang about our recent...
Innate immune control of synapse development
Innate lymphoid cells regulate inhibitory synapse formation in the mouse cortex during early postnatal life.
Structural neural plasticity evoked by rapid-acting antidepressant interventions
Structural neural plasticity evoked by rapid-acting antidepressant interventions
A feature in the pathophysiology of major depressive disorder (MDD), a mood disorder, is the impairment of excita...
Ruminating on replay during the awake state
In this Journal Club, Anna Gillespie discusses how the discovery of hippocampal replay during the awake state reshaped our...
mTOR and neuroinflammation in epilepsy: implications for disease progression and treatment
mTOR and neuroinflammation in epilepsy: implications for disease progression and treatment
Epilepsy remains a major health concern as anti-seizure medications frequently fail, and there is currently no treatment t...
Natural primate neurobiology
A new study captures nearly the full repertoire of primate natural behaviour and reveals that highly distributed cortical ...
A structural role for SynGAP
The synaptic protein SynGAP exerts its effects on synaptic plasticity via a structural role rather than its GTPase-activat...
Molecular and cellular mechanisms of selective vulnerability in neurodegenerative diseases
Molecular and cellular mechanisms of selective vulnerability in neurodegenerative diseases
The selective vulnerability of specific neuronal subtypes is a hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases. In this Review, I s...
From compulsivity to compulsion: the neural basis of compulsive disorders
From compulsivity to compulsion: the neural basis of compulsive disorders
Compulsive behaviour, an apparently irrational perseveration in often maladaptive acts, is a potential transdiagnostic sym...
