The neuroscience of tinnitus

Theoretical Neuroscience

Dynamical Systems in Neuroscience

Explains the relationship of electrophysiology, nonlinear dynamics, and the computational properties of neurons, with each concept presented in terms of both neuroscience and mathematics and illustrated using geometrical intuition. In order...

Fair open evaluation may need some temporarily hidden authorship, caution about counting the votes, and transparency of the full pre-publication paperwork

Early childhood household instability, adolescent structural neural network architecture, and young adulthood depression: A 21-year longitudinal study

Unstable and unpredictable environments are linked to risk for psychopathology, but the underlying neural mechanisms that explain how instability relate to subsequent mental health concerns remain unclear. In particular, few studies have fo...

Increased Postural Demand Is Associated With Greater Cognitive Workload in Healthy Young Adults: A Pupillometry Study

Introduction: Balance tasks require cognitive resources to ensure postural stability. Pupillometry has been used to quantify cognitive workload of various cognitive tasks, but has not been studied in postural control. The current investigat...

Circular RNA expression profiles and functional predication after restraint stress in the amygdala of rats

Prolonged or repeated exposure to stress elevates the risk of various psychological diseases, many of which are characterized by central nervous system dysfunction. Recent studies have demonstrated that circular RNAs (circRNAs) are highly a...

Specificity Protein 1: A Protein With a Two-Sided Role in Ischemic Stroke

Stroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. However, there is a lack of effective medications to speed up the recovery process. Ischemic stroke, as the result of cerebral infarction or cerebral artery narrowing, i...

Prefrontal cortical deficits are a putative susceptibility factor for PTSD

IntroductionOnly a subset of people who experience a traumatic event develop Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) suggesting that there are susceptibility factors influencing PTSD pathophysiology. While post trauma sequelae factors are ext...

Evaluation of the SH-SY5Y cell line as an in vitro model for potency testing of a neuropeptide-expressing AAV vector

Viral vectors have become important tools for basic research and clinical gene therapy over the past years. However, in vitro testing of vector-derived transgene function can be challenging when specific post-translational modifications are...

Friends with Social Benefits: Host-Microbe Interactions as a Driver of Brain Evolution and Development?

The tight association of the human body with trillions of colonizing microbes that we observe today is the result of a long evolutionary history. Only very recently have we started to understand how this symbiosis also affects brain functio...

Age-Related Homeostatic Plasticity at Rodent Neuromuscular Junctions

Motor ability decline remains a major threat to the quality of life of the elderly. Although the later stages of aging co-exist with degenerative pathologies, the long process of aging is more complicated than a simple and gradual degenerat...

Toward an integrated approach for mental health and psychosocial support and peacebuilding in North-East Nigeria: programme description and preliminary outcomes from ‘Counselling on Wheels’

Background Despite theoretical support for including mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) with peacebuilding, few programmes in conflict-affected regions fully integrate these approaches. Aims To describe and assess preliminary o...

Emerging Role of Ferroptosis in the Pathogenesis of Ischemic Stroke: A New Therapeutic Target?

Ischemic stroke is one of the main causes of high morbidity, mortality, and disability worldwide; however, the treatment methods are limited and do not always achieve satisfactory results. The pathogenesis of ischemic stroke is complex, def...
