Research Progress

Dong-Gen Luo’s group has recently published a paper in Nature Communications titled “Odor-evoked inhibition of olfactory sensory neurons drives olfactory perception in Drosophila”.
Huan Luo’s group has recently published a paper on PLoS Biology (Jia, Liu, Fang, & Luo, 2017). . They employed EEG recordings in combination with a temporal response function (TRF) method to examine t...
Sheng Li’s group investigated the processing of different types of contours under conscious and unconscious conditions. The results suggest that collinear but not orthogonal contours can be processed ...
Zhuan Zhou's group investigate mechanisms of neurotransmitter, in particular catecholamines , release from soma of single cells , brain slices or living rat/mouse brains using animal disease models.
A study from Lu Lin’s group recently reported a new mechanism underlying the rapid antidepressant effects of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antagonists.
A Novel Procedure to Treat Tobacco Use Disorder
Xiaolin Zhou’s group show the involvement of COMT Val158Met polymorphism in the framing effect in decision-making and suggested resting-state functional connectivity between OFC and amygdala as a neur...
Fang Fang’s group demonstrate that perceptual learning modifies the functional specializations of visual cortical areas.They prove that perceptual learning in visually normal adults shapes the functio...
Yun Wang’s group demonstrate that Cdk5 phosphorylates TRPV1 at Threonine 406 and promotes the surface localization of TRPV1, leading to inflammatory thermal hyperalgesia. Their studies provide a poten...
Hang Zhang‘ lab described three studies using a novel mathematical method that permitted them to measure the brain’s representation of visual and motor error in a simple reaching task. They prove for ...
