A functional imaging study in which subjects tracked different targets with eye movements and a joystick provides evidence that the cerebellum is involved in eye–hand coordination. The data suggest that internal models used for motor control may also be involved in cognition.
In contrast to the hippocampus, low-frequency stimulation in the amygdala produces synaptic enhancement via kainate receptors that spreads to inactive synapses on the same cell.
A genetic analysis of synapse formation changes the current understanding of the events that generate acetylcholine receptor clustering and synapse-specific receptor transcription.
A functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study reveals areas of the human brain that are activated during the perception of boundaries between events.
