We explored the map of odor space created by glomeruli on the olfactory bulb of both rat and
mouse. Identified glomeruli could be matched across animals by their response profile to …

Genomic studies have identified hundreds of candidate genes near loci associated with risk
for schizophrenia. To define candidates and their functions, we mutated zebrafish orthologs …

Center-surround receptive fields are a fundamental unit of brain organization. It has been
proposed that olfactory bulb mitral cells exhibit this functional circuitry, with excitation from one …

… at 100 mM NaCl responding to a decreasing salt gradient starting at 75 mM NaCl (E). To
calculate DF/DFmax ([A]–[E]), we subtracted the calcium intensity of each time point (F) by the …

It is well documented that children with neurofibromatosis type 1 are at high risk for a variety
of cognitive and learning deficits. The current study investigated the use of a developmental …

… The on/off kinetics appears to be dominated by time constants of electronic components from
the driving circuit of choice – it is around 10 µs in this present example with a rather simple, …

Animals modulate their arousal state to ensure that their sensory responsiveness and locomotor
activity match environmental demands. Neuropeptides can regulate arousal, but studies …

Many animals have the potential to discriminate nonspectral colors. For humans, purple is
the clearest example of a nonspectral color. It is perceived when two color cone types in the …
