Janelia scientists are learning how the brain switches between random and strategic modes. Many of the choices we make are informed by experiences we’ve had in the past. But occasionally we’re better ...

Janelia researchers developed an innovative new technique – cycleHCR -- that uses a novel DNA barcode system to track hundreds of RNA and protein molecules in single cells within thick biological ...

In the last 18 months, Janelia Farm has recruited two group leaders, four fellows and four junior fellows. David Stern became a scientist because he enjoyed working in the laboratory. As the ...

Now, using a novel system developed at Janelia, researchers led by the Dudman Lab found that a part of the basal ganglia called the striatum is not involved in action selection as previously thought.

Our brains constantly create internal maps of the world, allowing us to navigate spaces, recall past experiences, ...

An innovative new technique uses a novel DNA barcode system to track hundreds of RNA and protein molecules in single cells within thick biological samples, providing researchers with a full picture of ...

Now, by tracking the activity of thousands of neurons over days and weeks as an animal learns, researchers at HHMI's Janelia Research Campus have systematically detailed, step by step, how these ...

The same machinery is operating in both cases but with different readouts." Jennifer Lippincott-Schwartz, Janelia Senior Group Leader The first clue about the possible connection between brain and ...

Fiore and Janelia Group Leader Kayvon Pedram, along with a team of researchers, have developed Rhobo6, a light microscopy probe that gives scientists an unprecedented look at the extracellular ...
