INTRODUCTION Sleep disruption, particularly loss of slow-wave sleep (SWS), is common in Alzheimer's disease (AD), but its neurobiological underpinnings remain unclear. We investigated whether locus ...

Excited to finally see this out! unexpected findings (and null results) can end exciting. One hidden nugget is that early before significant aggregation 3xtg mice sleep more by many measure. should have an answer to poss why coming soon!

Excited to share our latest story! We found disentangled memory representations in the hippocampus that generalized across time and environments, despite the seemingly random drift and remapping of single cells. This code enabled the transfer of prior knowledge to solve new tasks

We usually assume 🐜 ants 🐜 learn views when facing their goal, but our data shows that it is not necessarily the case!
We combined field experiments with a biologically constrained model to show how a two-stage neural circuit (MB -> CX) could allow this:

Background Sleep is an essential component of memory consolidation and waste clearance, including pathology associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Facil...
Empathy measured through observational fear in rodents has been associated with increased theta oscillations in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC). However, upstream circuit mechanisms modulating the...
During wakefulness, neuromodulators operate largely independently to support behavior and cognition. By contrast, sleep reorganizes their activity into a coordinated brain rhythm. During sleep, the ma...
Background: Spatial navigation relies on egocentric and allocentric frames of reference, with the latter critically impaired in Alzheimer disease (AD) due to hippocampal involvement. Recent evidence s...
