This paper changed my life: Transformative work in addiction neuroscience (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A 2011 Nature study found that loss of a nicotinic receptor subunit leads to increased nicotine intake in mice. The work set the standard for how to functionally validate genetic association study findings in neuroscience.
Building brain-computer interfaces at a neurotech company (opens the original)
Read excerpt
At Blackrock Neurotech, Spencer Kellis develops implantable devices that help people with brain and spinal cord conditions communicate, move and more.
Infant memories: Lost but not gone? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Infantile amnesia is not simply a story about forgetting the past. It is an opportunity to understand how memory itself is built.
Neuromechanical models deepen our understanding of animal motor control (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Thanks to recent progress in physics-based simulators and robotics, it has never been easier for neuroscientists to use neuromechanical modeling to test hypotheses about animal movement.
Dimensionality-neuroscience's red herring? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Placing too much emphasis on a specific interpretation of dimensionality, or treating it as an end-all quantification of some aspect of neural computation, may hinder progress in understanding the brain.
