Article series: Scaling up neuroscience Comment: The rise of team neuroscience James L. Olds p601 | doi:10.1038/nrn.2016.116 James Olds argues that gaining a true understanding of brain structure and function will require neuroscientists to adopt a team-based approach to research and considers some of the challenges that this presents for the field.

RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS Top Neural development: Sight development p603 | doi:10.1038/nrn.2016.129 Two studies show that cortical feedback and metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 are necessary for the proper refinement of reticulogeniculate synapses during visual system development. PDF Sensory systems: Thirst and hunger games p604 | doi:10.1038/nrn.2016.117 In Drosophila melanogaster, signals of water satiety and hunger converge on interoceptive neurons in the suboesophageal zone that in turn influence water intake and feeding. PDF Cerebral cortex: Connecting with words p604 | doi:10.1038/nrn.2016.123 The connectivity pattern of the left occipitotemporal cortex of 5-year-olds who cannot yet read can predict where the functionally specific 'visual word form area' will form once the children learn to read. PDF An interview with...: The Kavli prize winners p606 | doi:10.1038/nrn.2016.127 Interviews with this year's winners of the Kavli prize in neuroscience, Eve Marder, Michael M. Merzenich and Carla J. Shatz. PDF IN BRIEF Synaptic plasticity: Stacking up synaptic structure | Learning and memory: How synapses form memories | Neuroprotection: Power release | Glia: Motor learning with oligodendrocytes | Ion channels: A warm response | Neurophysiology: Inhibitory consumption | Cerebral cortex: Cortical connections | Techniques: Neuronal barcoding PDF Neuroscience JOBS of the week Assistant Professor, Systems / Behavioral Neuroscience Dartmouth College Systems Neuroscience Faculty Position Johns Hopkins University (JHU) Postdoctoral Fellow in Neuroscience Yale University School of Medicine Open-rank Tenure-track position in neuroscience Creighton University School of Medicine Faculty-Neuroscience University of Chicago More Science jobs from Neuroscience EVENT 2nd International Brain Stimulation Conference 05.03.17 Barcelona, Spain More science events from
REVIEWS		Top
The cellular mechanisms that maintain neuronal polarity Marvin Bentley & Gary Banker p611 | doi:10.1038/nrn.2016.100 Axons and dendrites contain distinct complements of membrane proteins, consistent with their different roles in electrochemical signalling. In this Review, Bentley and Banker discuss the intracellular machinery that ensures that axonal and dendritic proteins are accurately targeted to the correct domains.

Emerging roles of GluN3-containing NMDA receptors in the CNS Isabel Pérez-Otaño, Rylan S. Larsen & John F. Wesseling p623 | doi:10.1038/nrn.2016.92 NMDA receptors that contain GluN3 subunits have several non-conventional properties that set them apart from 'classical' NMDA receptors. Pérez-Otaño and colleagues describe the important roles of these receptors in CNS development and their potential involvement in CNS disease. Abstract | Full Text | PDF
Region-specific roles of the corticotropin-releasing factor-urocortin system in stress Marloes J. A. G. Henckens, Jan M. Deussing & Alon Chen p636 | doi:10.1038/nrn.2016.94 Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) and urocortins have traditionally been proposed to promote stress and stress recovery, respectively. However, recent findings suggest that this view is overly simplistic. Chen and colleagues review evidence showing that CRF-receptor signalling is region- and cell type-specific and influenced by the individual's experience.

The effects of childhood maltreatment on brain structure, function and connectivity Martin H. Teicher, Jacqueline A. Samson, Carl M. Anderson & Kyoko Ohashi p652 | doi:10.1038/nrn.2016.111 Adverse childhood experiences have a wide range of effects on the structure, function and connectivity of the developing brain. Teicher et al. suggest that such changes might reflect adaptive modifications that, in some susceptible individuals, could contribute to psychopathology.
