April 29, 2022The role of dorsolateral and ventromedial prefrontal cortex in the processing of emotional dimensions | Scientific Reports

To put it in a nutshell, the vmPFC is assumed to have a crucial role in emotional processing, whereas the dlPFC is predominantly involved in cognitive control and executive processing.
It is however debatable if such a strict functional distinction of the respective areas does hold.

The triumphs and limitations of computational methods for scRNA-seq | Nature Methods
November 10, 2021Liked this @KharchenkoLab review – in particular, the descriptions of the various low-dimensional approximations & the simple motivation for these using PCA. Also, found the step-by-step workflow in the text & figures helpful.
Note also the reference to expression entropy for determining the direction in trajectories.

Smith’s team knew from imaging and brain-tissue studies that axon fibres from the brains of female rats and humans are slimmer than those from males. They wanted to know more about the differences and what effect they might have on brain injury, so they cultured rat neurons and then damaged them by exposing them to a rapid air blast. In the neurons from female rats, the axons were smaller and the microtubules narrower and more susceptible to damage than in the cells from males. The same was true for cultured human neurons5.
