Special Issue: Molecular Mechanisms of Neuronal Specification

Guest Editor: Tibor Harkany
What are the precise molecular and cellular mechanisms that the human brain exploits to encode consciousness, identity and thought? This remains undoubtedly one of the greatest scientific challenges facing mankind.

This Special Issue addresses with eminent precision the rules that dictate the structural and functional diversity of neurons as well as the molecular principles that integrate these cells into coherent and dynamic networks during development.... Read more...

Towards a Comparative Understanding of Adult Neurogenesis

Guest Editors: L. Bonfanti and G Zupanc
Despite the considerable enthusiasm for research on adult neurogenesis, there are a strikingly low number of comparative studies in this field. However knowledge from comparative studies may provide clues about the biological function of adult neurogenesis, which remains largely elusive in the intact mammalian brain. This Special Issue summarizes recent findings derived from a cross-species comparative perspective. Read more...

The articles in this Special Issue of EJN cover the full scope of research in this exciting field, ranging from midbrain, thalamic, striatal, and cortical circuitry controlling and influencing eye movements to oculomotor functions in REM sleep and learning. Read more...
