Nature. Control sedative and circadian rhythms to coordinate changes in the retinal input loop.
Time of Update: 2020-07-21
the number of IGL activated neurons in the above experimental scheme was significantly reduced, which indicated that the IGL brain region participated in the process of dietary rhythm assimilation.
therefore, neuropeptide Y signal in the brain region of IGL may be involved in the process of dietary rhythm coordination regulated by iprgc.

Nature reveals the neural loops of the intestinal axis that eat sweets.
Time of Update: 2020-07-21
The researchers further found that mice also had a preference for non Metabolizable Glucose analogues, suggesting that the brain signaling system recognizes the sugar molecule itself rather than its calories or metabolites.
therefore, the researchers believe that glucose preference may be regulated by gut brain axis signal rather than by sweet receptor.

Track language processing in non-reactive patients.
Time of Update: 2020-07-21
however, electroencephalogram (EEG) is more sensitive to brain activity, can better assess language processing, and distinguish between disturbance of consciousness (such as unresponsive arousal syndrome, UWS) and minimum state of consciousness (MCS).

Cell . . . The new method is expected to help blind people regain their vision.
Time of Update: 2020-07-21
Figure 2 when the researchers found that the use of dynamic stimulation can create letter perception in subjects with normal vision, they implanted five electrodes into the inner wall of the visual cortex of blind subjects.

Fast alternating brainwaves: How do our brains make decisions in a bunch of options?
Time of Update: 2020-07-21
this is like that before a rat decides which way to go, its hippocampus decides the position change it is about to face by alternately processing the "left" and "right" options, and always keeps the difference between the two.

Current Biology . . . Li quietly revealed the fruit fly temperature and sweet taste perception integration mechanism.
Time of Update: 2020-07-21
Combined with behavioral results, the researchers studied the effects of cold stimulation on taste and mechanical action potential We propose a working model in which low-temperature sweets inhibit sweet preference by activating bitterness and mechanical sensing neurons.

Nat Neurosci . . . The Ma Luna team revealed the mechanism of neurosynchronization between the brain in intergroup conflicts.
Time of Update: 2020-07-21
at the level of intergerebral synchrony among group members (Fig. 3), the researchers found that group cohesion enhanced the within group neural activity in dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and temporoparietal junction (TMJ) in group members, especially in the aggressive group In addition, the neural synchronization of the members in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex can positively predict the impulsive risk-taking behavior of the group in the inter group interaction.
