Visual Brain-Computer Interface Based on High-Frequency Steady-State Visual Evoked Fields Background Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) technology allows users to control machines by decoding specific brain activity signals. While invasive BCIs excel in capturing high-quality brain signals, their application is mainly limited to clinical settings. Non-...

Comprehensive Academic Report on Scientific Paper Research Background Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory and degenerative disease of the central nervous system (CNS), affecting approximately 2.8 million people worldwide. The pathological mechanisms of this disease are mainly related to autoimmune-mediated demyelination and axonal transectio...

Sodium Leak Channel in Glutamatergic Neurons of the Lateral Parabrachial Nucleus Helps Maintain Respiratory Rate Under Sevoflurane Anesthesia Background Respiration is a core function for maintaining life activities. General anesthetics and/or opioids often suppress respiratory function. However, the respiratory suppression caused by the intravenou...

Background and Research Motivation Alcohol abuse is a global health issue, affecting over 8% of the male population. Prolonged alcohol exposure can alter the homeostasis of neurons and synapses in the brain, leading to various mental disorders and cognitive deficits, especially in motor learning. Previous studies have shown that alcohol abuse cause...

Genome-wide screening identifies TRIM33 as an essential regulator of dendritic cell differentiation Background Dendritic cells (DCs) serve as a bridge between innate and adaptive immunity by recognizing pathogens through pattern recognition receptors (such as TLRs) and modulating antigen-specific T cell responses. DCs are mainly divided into two ty...

TDRD3 Deficient Mice Exhibit Deficits in Neurogenesis and Synaptic Plasticity at Both Post-transcriptional and Behavioral Levels Research Background Topoisomerase 3b (top3b) is a dual-activity topoisomerase capable of resolving DNA and RNA topological problems. An increasing body of evidence indicates that top3b functions as a conserved complex wit...

One of the key issues in understanding the visual system’s selective attention is how it optimizes the perception and processing of visual information in specific behavioral contexts. Although previous research has analyzed the pivotal role of individual neuron firing rates in information transmission, our understanding remains limited regarding ho...

ABHD6 Drives Endocytosis of AMPA Receptors to Regulate Synaptic Plasticity and Learning Flexibility Research Background In the exploration of the neural system’s mechanisms, α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptors (AMPAR) maintain the tuning ability of neurons in both resting and active states through the regulation of...

Academic Report on “Contralateral Delay Activity and Alpha Lateralization Reflect Retinotopic and Screen-Centered Reference Frames in Visual Memory” Introduction The visual system is organized in a lateralized manner, with the left and right visual fields processed by the contralateral cerebral cortex. This organization applies not only to percepti...

Mesoscale Organization of Ventral and Dorsal Visual Pathways in Macaque Monkey Revealed by 7T fMRI In the journal Progress in Neurobiology, a research team from the Interdisciplinary Institute of Neuroscience and Technology and the Department of Neurosurgery at the Second Hospital in Zhejiang University published a paper titled “Mesoscale organizat...
