Huan Luo’s lab demonstrate theta-band behavioral oscillations in multi-prediction coordination courses.
Shihui Han's study suggest that perception of pain expressions of different races may recruit distinct neuronal assemblies at a specific stage of the processing stream.
Zhuan Zhou's lab demonstrated that grafted neural stem cells directly release dopamine in the damaged striatum in vivo and partially rescue a rat model of Parkinson’s disease. The authors combined two...
Yan Zhang’s study showed how the ligand netrin-1 is able to switch between the attraction and repulsion of an axon. In the current study, structural data reveals netrin-1 in complex with one of its re...
Yan Zhang’s group has reported that the level of miR-342-5p is increased significantly in familial AD mouse model. AnkG one of the targets of miR-342-5p is downregulated. In APP/PS1, PS1ΔE9 and PS1-M1...
Fang Fang's lab combined psychophysics, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and event-related potential (ERP）to investigate the neural mechanisms of visual crowding.
Fang Fang’s lab recently combined psychophysical adaptation, functional magnetic resonance imaging adaptation (fMRI adaptation) and dynamic causal modeling (DCM）to investigate the neural mechanisms of...
Yun Wang's lab found that the LIM motif–containing protein kinases (LIMKs), which regulate actin dynamics, promoted the development of inflammatory hyperalgesia (excessive sensitivity to painful stimu...
Zhuan Zhou's lab indicates that cholinergic stimulation-induced DA release is profoundly modulated by physiologically relevant levels of nicotine and resolves the paradoxical observation of nicotine’s...
Yun Wang's lab found that , for the first time, the epigenetic regulators CDYL and EZH2 to dendrite morphogenesis and might shed new light on our understanding of the regulation of the neurodevelopmen...
