GUIDE is a Bayesian framework that leverages simulation-based inference to efficiently estimate posterior distributions of any forward model parameters, allowing for uncertainty quantification and ...

Spatial patterns in genetic diversity are shaped by individuals dispersing from their parents and larger-scale population movements. It has long been appreciated that these patterns of movement shape ...

The majority of highly polymorphic genes are related to immune functions and with over 100 alleles within a population, genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are the most polymorphic ...

A new gene-editing tool enables precise study of the variable proteins that allow malaria parasites to stick to red blood cells and evade the immune system.

Kokumi refers to the enhanced and more delicious state of food flavor. However, the underlying neuroscientific mechanisms remain largely unexplored. Our previous research demonstrated that ornithine ...

We can now collect cell-count data across whole animal brains quantifying recent neuronal activity, gene expression, or anatomical connectivity. This is a powerful approach since it is a multi-region ...

Mice can generate a cognitive map of an environment based on self-motion signals when there is a fixed association between their starting point and the location of their goal.

Given their non-migratory nature within the mineralized matrix, their unique dendrites are crucial for cell-to-cell communication in response to both intracellular and extracellular stimuli, such as ...

Tumor cells transform fibroblasts into cancer-associated fibroblasts, which have an important immunosuppressive activity on which growth, invasion, and metastasis depend. These activated fibroblasts ...

This study utilizes an elegant approach to examine valence encoding of the mesolimbic dopamine system. The findings are valuable, demonstrating differential responses of dopamine to the same taste ...

The prelimbic (PrL) cortex is vulnerable to insult from adolescent alcohol exposure and receives input from the basolateral amygdala (BLA) while sending projections to the ventrolateral periaqueductal ...
