Sheng Li’s lab combined reward learning and change detection paradigms, and investigated the modulation effect of reward association on visual working memory (VWM
Yun Wang's lab found that PKDs also participate in other processes in the nervous system including neuronal polarity establishment, neuroprotection, and learning. Here, they discuss the connections be...
Shiming Tang's lab report that any color activates 1-4 separate cortical patches within “globs”, millimeter-sized color-preferring modules. Most patches belong to different hue- or lightness-clusters,...
In this study, with fMRI and aMRI, Professor Fang’s group addressed this issue by searching for the neural correlates of perceptual learning of face views over a long time course. Human subjects were ...
Yun Wang's lab report that acute cocaine exposure induces protein kinase D1 (PKD1) activation in the rat striatum, and knockdown of PKD1 inthe rat dorsal striatum attenuates cocaine-induced locomotor ...
Dijing Shi et al from KeWei Wang laboratory, in collaboration with Sheng Ye from Rongguang Zhang laboratory at the Institute of Biophysics, reported the crystal structure of TRPV3-ARD solved at 1.95 Å...
A study from Sheng Li’s lab combined behavioral and electroencephalogram (EEG) measurements and investigated the mechanisms of the information integration between different spatial frequency bands in ...
A study in Zhou’s lab revealed an interaction between value and perceptual salience in the allocation of attention.Previous researchers argued for a combined force of value and perceptual salience in ...
The study from Xiaolin Zhou's group addressed the ongoing debates regarding the extent to which information from one modality dominates or interferes with the processing of information from another mo...
Liang Li’s group has studied why spatial separation between the target-speech source and masking-speech sources is still able to improve recognition of the target speech under reverberant conditions, ...
