To uncover what drives sexual behavior in animals, researchers studied the brain activity of male mice throughout the series of actions involved in sex leading up to ejaculation.

A fluorescent probe designed to incorporate a fluorophore into the structure of a neurotransmitter finds activity-dependent heterogeneity in dopamine release at individual synapses ...

Pharmaceutical applications could target dopamine release to regulate how the brain releases these neurotransmitters we now know are key to ejaculation. However, Zhang sees a bigger picture.
