    Dissociable dynamic effects of expectation during statistical learning

    Hannah H McDermott, Federico de Martino ... Ryszard Auksztulewicz
    Neural responses during statistical learning reveal dissociable dynamic effects of expectation, supporting the opposing process theory within trials while demonstrating contrasting effects across trials.

    Agent-based modeling reveals how bats navigate dense group emergences

    Omer Mazar, Yossi Yovel
    Acoustic jamming during bat emergence is weaker than expected because signal redundancy, echo integration, and simple movement rules enable robust navigation, as demonstrated by an agent‑based sensory-motor model.

    Raw signal segmentation for estimating RNA modification from Nanopore direct RNA sequencing data

    Guangzhao Cheng, Aki Vehtari, Lu Cheng
    SegPore refines raw signal segmentation and alignment in nanopore direct RNA sequencing and thereby boosts the performance of RNA modification detection from in vitro data at single-read resolution.

    Genetic network shaping Kenyon cell identity and function in Drosophila mushroom bodies

    Pei-Chi Chung, Kai-Yuan Ku ... Hung-Hsiang Yu
    The genetic network of BTB zinc finger transcription factors and Eip93F is crucial for Kenyon cell identity regulation and neuronal function acquisition in the construction of Drosophila mushroom bodies.

    Rift Valley fever virus dynamics in a transhumant cattle system in The Gambia

    Essa Jarra, Divine Ekwem ... Daniel T Haydon
    Endemic Rift Valley fever virus circulation in The Gambia is driven by seasonal cattle movements and eco-region differences, highlighting livestock mobility as a key target for effective control strategies.

    Flexible neural representations of abstract structural knowledge in the human entorhinal cortex

    Shirley Mark, Philipp Schwartenbeck ... Timothy E Behrens
    A novel fMRI method reveals that humans generalize task structure across non-aligned state spaces, showing entorhinal representations support flexible knowledge transfer.

    Synthetic gene circuits that selectively target RAS-driven cancers

    Gabriel Valentin Senn, Leon Nissen, Yaakov Benenson
    Design and integration of various biomolecular sensors for over-activated rat sarcoma (RAS) created synthetic gene circuits that distinguish mutant versus wild-type signaling and express a therapeutic protein to kill RAS-driven cancer cells.

    Size tuning of neural response variability in laminar circuits of macaque primary visual cortex

    Lauri Nurminen, Maryam Bijanzadeh, Alessandra Angelucci
    The trial-to-trial variability of neuronal responses and the correlated response variability among neurons are modulated by visual stimulus size in a manner that depends on cortical layer, suggesting multiple circuits and mechanisms as the source of variability.

    Transsaccadic working memory in healthy ageing and neurodegenerative disease

    Sijia Zhao, Thomas Parr ... Masud Husain
    Saccades selectively disrupt spatial but not colour memory, and while transsaccadic updating remains resilient to ageing and neurodegeneration, individual drawing deficits arise from impaired initial encoding and memory decay.

    Inverted encoding of neural responses to audiovisual stimuli reveals super-additive multisensory enhancement

    Zak Buhmann, Amanda K Robinson ... Reuben Rideaux
    A multivariate analysis of electroencephalography activity reveals super-additive enhancements to the neural encoding of audiovisual stimuli, providing new insights into how the brain integrates multisensory information to optimise spatial localisation.
