Cong Yu’s lab provided that VPL can take place at a conceptual level and generalize to stimuli with different physical properties.
Fang Fang’s group showed that neural activities in V1 could create a bottom-up saliency map a recent study
Fangfang’s group provided electrophysiological evidence that active feature binding takes place in early visual cortex, but at later processing stages than feature co-occurance.
Chen Zhang’s group investigated two potential biomarkers found in the cerebrospinal fluid of AD patients, APLP1-derived Aβ-like peptides 28 (APL1β28) and clusterin plasma levels. The data presented he...
Most protocols for generating high-titer lentivirus require ultracentrifugation, which can be an instrumental barrier for routine operations in a laboratory. In this study, Chen Zhang’s group describe...
Chen Zhang’s team summarized some of the high-confidence genetic changes in ASD and their possible roles in their pathogenesis.
Chen Zhang’s lab designed an experimental apparatus of a light/dark box with a voltage foot shock. The results of study described that it is an efficient method of monitoring fear memory formation and...
Lin Lu’s group defined the role of AMPK in fear memory formation. The results of this study indicate that AMPK is a key negative regulator of plasticity and fear memory formation.
Cong Yu’s lab tested whether TPE training protocols could even make learning transfer across different tasks involving discrimination of basic visual features. The results do not support a hypothetica...
The study of Dai Zhang’s group suggests an association between schizophrenia and the impairment of posttranscriptional regulation of brain development through microRNA systems.
