    Distractor effects in decision making are related to the individual’s style of integrating choice attributes

    Jing Jun Wong, Alessandro Bongioanni ... Bolton KH Chau
    Computational modelling reveals variations in people’s preferences towards integrating choice attributes using an additive or multiplicative approach, which affected whether the presence of valuable distractors facilitate or impair decision making.

    When and why does motor preparation arise in recurrent neural network models of motor control?

    Marine Schimel, Ta-Chu Kao, Guillaume Hennequin
    A computational model shows that preparation arises as an optimal control strategy in input-driven recurrent neural networks performing a delayed-reaching task.

    Patient-derived xenografts and single-cell sequencing identifies three subtypes of tumor-reactive lymphocytes in uveal melanoma metastases

    Joakim W Karlsson, Vasu R Sah ... Jonas A Nilsson
    Single-cell sequencing and functional analysis identify T cells that can be useful for marker selection and cell therapy in uveal melanoma, a disease largely unresponsive to conventional immune checkpoint therapies.

    The subthalamic nucleus contributes causally to perceptual decision-making in monkeys

    Kathryn Branam, Joshua I Gold, Long Ding
    The subthalamic nucleus contains distinct subpopulations that can support multifaceted roles for making decisions based on uncertain evidence.

    Tumor-infiltrating nerves functionally alter brain circuits and modulate behavior in a mouse model of head-and-neck cancer

    Jeffrey Barr, Austin Walz ... Paola D Vermeer
    Nerve tracing and behavioral studies in tumor-bearing mice together with transcriptional and functional analysis reveal cancer-induced central and peripheral neuronal alterations that influence behavior.

    Dynamic chromatin architecture identifies new autoimmune-associated enhancers for IL2 and novel genes regulating CD4+ T cell activation

    Matthew C Pahl, Prabhat Sharma ... Andrew D Wells
    The three-dimensional architecture of the genome in distinct cell types predicts genes and regulatory elements involved in cell function and disease.

    Sensitivity to vocal emotions emerges in newborns at 37 weeks gestational age

    Xinlin Hou, Peng Zhang ... Dandan Zhang
    Analysis of neonatal response reveals that at 37 weeks gestational age, infants exhibit a marked developmental shift in their ability to perceive emotional vocal prosody, highlighting a critical period for social emotional development with potential implications for early neurodevelopmental assessments.

    PITAR, a DNA damage-inducible cancer/testis long noncoding RNA, inactivates p53 by binding and stabilizing TRIM28 mRNA

    Samarjit Jana, Mainak Mondal ... Kumaravel Somasundaram
    PITAR interaction with TRIM28 mRNA, which encodes a p53 targeting E3 ubiquitin ligase, keeps p53 levels low for cancer cells to divide and attenuates the DNA damage response by p53.

    Nuclear magnetic resonance-based metabolomics with machine learning for predicting progression from prediabetes to diabetes

    Jiang Li, Yuefeng Yu ... Bin Wang
    Lipoprotein particle size and composition, fatty acids, and amino acids were associated with the risk of incident diabetes, and adding the selected metabolites could significantly improve the risk prediction of progression from prediabetes to diabetes beyond the conventional clinical variables.

    Mechanism of barotaxis in marine zooplankton

    Luis Alberto Bezares Calderón, Réza Shahidi, Gáspár Jékely
    Ciliated zooplankton larvae sense pressure by ciliary photoreceptor cells, which increase the beating of locomotor cilia via a serotonergic motor circuit leading to rapid upward swimming during barotaxis.
