To date, most studies on head direction encoding have been conducted on a horizontal two銉緄mensional (2D) plane, and little is known about how three銉緄mensional (3D) direction information is encoded in the brain despite humans and other animals living in a 3D world. Here, we ...

If time is not transmitted by receptors into the brain, how is it sensed? Recent work suggests that dorsal striatum is critical. Striatal neural population activity in rats has been shown to represent the duration of a time interval both when animals are trained to reproduce the interval by a...
Activity patterns in the orbitofrontal cortex were also found to be related to stimulus-stimulus as well as value encoding. These results suggest that the brain encodes model-based representations during Pavlovian conditioning, and that these representations are utilized in the service of behavior....
To examine the reproductive endocrinology of a large pleuronectiform fish, barfin flounder, Verasper moseri, a promising candidate for aquaculture and resource enhancement in northern Japan due to its high commercial value, three gonadotropin-releasing hormones (GnRHs) in the brain was identified by...
The role of serotonin in human brain function remains elusive due, at least in part, to our inability to measure rapidly the local concentration of this neurotransmitter. We used fast-scan cyclic voltammetry to infer serotonergic signaling from the striatum of 14 brains of human patients with Park...
As these summary statistics need to be integrated with an individuals’ taste for risk, we were also interested in identifying where in the brain objective (task-based) and subjective (disposition to risk) variables are assimilated prior to a decision. Materials and methods The study was approved...
Signal encoding in Computer Science refers to the process of minimizing transition activities on busses by applying various encoding schemes such as bus-invert method, Gray code, and other methods to reduce power consumption and optimize signal integrity. ...
This process ultimately prompts learned goal-directed actions allowing the pursuit of rewarding experience or the avoidance of a danger. Both innate and learned behavioural programs are evolutionarily conserved and fundamental for survival. Among the brain structures participating in the encoding of ...
