    This image has been selected to showcase the art that neuroscience research can create. As described by Dr. Honda and colleagues: Green cells in this image are neurons distributed in the superficial region of the cerebral neocortex at postnatal day 9 in a heterozygous mutant mouse of Dab1, which plays an essential role in neocortex formation. Cells were labeled by electroporation of pCAGGS-RG and pDCX-Cre at embryonic day 16.5. pCAGGS-RG has a CAG promoter, a DsRed and a polyA signal flanked by two loxP

    Interviewed by Dr. Paige N. McKeon, July 31, 2023 In their publication, Bryant and colleagues investigated unknowns pertaining to long-term motivational changes in mice that occur following repeated expos ure to low doses of alcohol. Focusing on the ventral hippocampus, a brain region strongly associated with reward-related behaviors, they utilized in vivo electrophysiology to discover that low-doses of alcohol significantly shift the role of the hippocampus in reward seeking. These findings critically

    This image has been selected to showcase the art that neuroscience research can create. As described by Dr. Peter Nicholls and colleagues: The image shows a clarified, 1-mm-thick sagittal section of whole brain from a 22-day-old transgenic mouse expressing a fluorescent reporter for caspase-3/7 activity.  In this sample, we were investigating the baseline level of reporter signal in a…
