Scientists in recent years have made great strides in the quest to understand the brain by using implanted probes to explore
how specific neural circuits work.
A better understanding of these mechanisms might make it possible to focus therapeutic interventions
on specific neural circuits to improve treatment of neurological disorders in the future.»
The study findings, published in the journal eLife on Dec. 19, reveal what happens in
specific neural circuits when young zebra finches make vocal sounds.
By stimulating
a specific neural circuit, researchers can cue a fly to flap its left wing or swing its head from side to side — feats that roused a late - afternoon crowd in November at the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience in San Diego, California.
In a pair of new studies, scientists from the Gladstone Institutes have discovered
a specific neural circuit that controls walking, and they found that input to this circuit is disrupted in Parkinson's disease.
