Simple behavioral assays-originally validated as drug-screening tools-fall short in studies that aim to unpack the psychedelic mechanism of action, so some behavioral neuroscientists are developing more nuanced tasks.
A growing list of medications-such as zuranolone for postpartum depression, suzetrigine for pain, and the gepants class of migraine medicines-exist because of insights from basic research.
Generative artificial intelligence will offer a new way to see, simulate and hypothesize about how animals experience their worlds. In doing so, it could help bridge the long-standing gap between neural function and behavior.
The dataset contains images of children's faces downloaded from websites about autism, which sparked concerns at Springer Nature about consent and reliability.
Machine learning should not be a replacement for human judgment but rather help us embrace the various assumptions and interpretations that shape behavioral research.
The 2013 Nature paper by Mattia Rigotti and his colleagues revealed how mixed selectivity neurons-cells that are not selectively tuned to a stimulus-play a key role in cognition.
Many well-known perimenopause symptoms arise in the brain, but we still know little about the specific mechanisms at play. More research-in both animals and humans-is essential.
Research in primate brains has been essential for the development of brain-computer interfaces and artificial neural networks. New funding and policy changes put the future of such advances at risk.
Eight researchers explain how they are using large language models to analyze the literature, brainstorm hypotheses and interact with complex datasets.
