In this issue of Neuron, Wang et al. demonstrate that parvalbumin interneurons in the sensory thalamic reticular nucleus are necessary and sufficient for regulating social memory in mice, identify a novel cortico-reticular thalamic-parafascicular pathway for social cognition, and highlight an essential role of GABAergic inhibitory neurons in social memory engrams.

Multi-domain Online Therapeutic Investigation of Neurocognition (MOTION) - A randomized comparative-effectiveness study of two remotely delivered mind-body interventions for older adults with cognitive decline.
Contemp Clin Trials
January 2025
Department of Neurology, University of California, Los Angeles, United States of America.
Background: Research suggest that mind-body movement programs have beneficial effects on cognitive outcomes for older adults with cognitive decline. However, few studies have directly compared specific approaches to mind-body movement or studied the impact of remote program delivery.
Methods: In a 3-arm randomized controlled trial (RCT) for older adults with cognitive impairment, we are comparing a multidomain mind-body program that emphasizes movement, body awareness, personal meaningfulness, and social connection, and a traditional Chinese mind-body exercise (Tai Chi) to a health and wellness education control condition.

Soccer is arguably the most widely followed sport worldwide, and many dream of becoming soccer players. However, only a few manage to achieve this dream, which has cast a significant spotlight on elite soccer players who possess exceptional skills to rise above the rest. Originally, such attention was focused on their great physical abilities.

Cd99 molecule-like 2 (Cd99l2) is a type I transmembrane protein that plays a role in the transmigration of leukocytes across vascular endothelial cells. Despite its high expression in the brain, the role of Cd99l2 remains elusive. We find that Cd99l2 is expressed primarily in neurons and positively regulates neurite outgrowth and the development of excitatory synapses.

Newborns are able to neurally discriminate between speech and nonspeech right after birth. To date it remains unknown whether this early speech discrimination and the underlying neural language network is associated with later language development. Preterm-born children are an interesting cohort to investigate this relationship, as previous studies have shown that preterm-born neonates exhibit alterations of speech processing and have a greater risk of later language deficits.

Department of Journalism, Faculty of Communication, Suleyman Demirel University, Isparta, Turkiye.
The rise of solo travel has become a significant trend in the leisure sphere; nonetheless, there is limited understanding of how solo travelers utilize social media throughout their travel process. This lack of insight represents a research problem, as it hinders the ability to enhance solo travel experiences through social media engagement. Addressing this gap, this study investigates the specific ways in which solo leisure travelers experience and engage with social media during their journeys.
