A new study details an efficient and scalable method to generate human inner ear hair-like cells in the lab, potentially offering a new tool for hearing loss research.

A comparison of hunting behaviours in five fish species reveals that larval prey-capture strategies differ dramatically across evolution.

New research finds old age likely impacts the habitual tool-use behaviours of some wild chimpanzees, and the extent to which different individuals are affected is highly variable.

Nature is marked not only by struggles for survival, but also by remarkable feats of cooperation. From microbes to insects to humans, organisms work together in a variety of ways to gather and share ...

The authors proposed two hypotheses: first, that methamphetamine induces neuroinflammation, and second, that it alters neuronal stem cell differentiation. These are valuable hypotheses, and the ...

This study offers important insights into the development of infants' responses to music based on the exploration of EEG neural auditory responses and video-based movement analysis. The convincing ...

CRISPR construct to genetically ablate the GABA transporter GAT3 in the mouse visual cortex, with effects on population-level neuronal activity. This work is important, as it sheds light on how GAT3 ...

Characterization of intracellular synapse heterogeneity aides to understand the intricate computational logic of neuronal circuits. Despite recent advances in connectomics, the spatial patterns of ...

Whole-mount 3D imaging at the cellular scale is a powerful tool for exploring complex processes during morphogenesis. In organoids, it allows examining tissue architecture, cell types, and morphology ...

The Drosophila microbiome regulates the cycling of gut metabolites in a circadian clock and diet-dependent manner.

Foveal sensitivity to the features of an imminent saccade target increases with the target’s conspicuity, supporting foveal prediction as a viable mechanism for maintaining visual continuity in ...

This important study presents a new method for longitudinally tracking cells in two-photon imaging data that addresses the specific challenges of imaging neurons in the developing cortex. It provides ...
