Ovulation filmed from start to finish for the first time

Approximately 400 times in a woman’s life, a mature egg makes the “leap.” It is released into the fallopian tube, ready for fertilization by the sperm. Researchers led by Melina Schuh, Christopher Thomas, and Tabea Lilian Marx from the Max Planck Institute (MPI) for Multidisciplinary Sciences have now succeeded in

Visual objects refine head direction coding

Authors Siegenthaler D, Denny H, Skromne Carrasco S, Mayer JL, Peyrache A, Trenholm S, Mace E Journal BioRxiv Citation bioRxiv 2024.10.21.619417. Abstract Animals use visual objects to guide navigation-related behaviors, from hunting prey, to escaping predators, to exploring the world. However, little is known about where visual objects are encoded
