Control of dentate gyrus function and context discrimination by CCK+ interneurons
Efficient memory processes rely on our brain's ability to store similar experiences as distinct memories. This process, performed in part by a structure in the brains of mamma...
Dietary prevention for colorectal cancer: targeting the bile acid/gut microbiome axis
PROJECT SUMMARY / ABSTRACT Diet is an established etiologic factor for colorectal cancer (CRC) and is estimated to account for more than 40% of CRC cases and deaths. Despite severa...
Search for the Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay with the LEGEND Experiment
Neutrinos, elementary particles that have no charge and were long believed to have zero mass, permeate the universe. They are notoriously difficult to detect, as they interact extr...

Becoming Protagonists: Effectiveness of a digital intervention to promote youth participation for mental health in Brazil
Interventions aimed at influencing adolescent behaviour often fall short due to their failure to align with adolescents' fundamental need to be acknowledged, heard, and respec...
MCA: Advancing understanding of neural mechanisms of behavior in wild songbirds using brain omics and gene manipulation
Many animals, including many songbirds, thrive in altered environments such as cities because they modify their behavior. All changes in behavior have to be regulated by the brain,...
NSFGEO-NERC: Collaborative Research: Role of the Overturning Circulation in Carbon Accumulation (ROCCA)
The North Atlantic Ocean plays an important role in the global carbon cycle, and it absorbs a disproportionately high amount of human carbon dioxide emissions. These points are tho...
CAREER: Deciphering how neural circuits extract and preprocess visual features for navigation
Many animals use information from vision when they navigate the world, yet we know surprisingly little about even the basic visual features that contribute to spatial and direction...
