"A couple of years ago when we started to perform head-fixed chronic recordings in developing mice for another project, we recognized that activity within layer 2/3 of the medial prefrontal cortex ...

A brain structure called the amygdala, and its connections with another region, the prefrontal cortex, shape people’s experiences and social interactions. The discovery of a key molecular mechanism ...

This schematic outlines their analytical framework. The approach involves creating a validated developmental atlas of the dorsal prefrontal cortex from structural connectivity, then using these ...

Longitudinal calcium imaging in the medial prefrontal cortex reveals the emergence of de novo task representations and reward-associated replay.

Drug addiction carries an extremely high risk of relapse, as cravings can be reignited by minor stimuli even long after one has stopped using. Previously, this phenomenon was attributed to a decline ...

Researchers identify PV neurons in the prefrontal cortex as the gatekeepers of drug addiction relapse, offering a new target for precision treatment.

During adolescence, the teen brain goes through dramatic changes which scientists are just beginning to better understand. For parents, teachers, and anyone who cares for a teenager—it is often ...
