    A context-free model of savings in motor learning

    Mahdiyar Shahbazi, Olivier Codol ... Paul L Gribble
    Recurrent neural network models trained on a novel motor skill exhibit a persistent shift in preparatory activity that enables faster relearning, without cognitive or contextual cues.

    Characterisation of cold-selective lamina I spinal projection neurons in the mouse

    Aimi N Razlan, Wenhui Ma ... Junichi Hachisuka
    Lamina I projection neurons that respond selectively to skin cooling receive monosynaptic input from Trpm8-expressing primary afferents and innervate brain regions involved in perception of cold and cold defence mechanisms.

    Drosophila ryanodine receptor gene triggers functional and developmental muscle properties and could be used to assess the impact of human RYR1 mutations

    Monika Zmojdzian, Teresa Jagla ... Catherine Sarret
    The Drosophila ryanodine receptor plays a conserved role in setting functional and structural muscle properties, regulates embryonic muscle development and could be used to assess the impact of human RYR1 mutations.
    1. Neuroscience

    Modeling flexible behavior with remapping-based hippocampal sequence learning

    Yoshiki Ito, Taro Toyoizumi
    A biologically plausible reinforcement learning model that integrates associative memory and hippocampal remapping explains context-dependent flexible behavior, neural dynamics, and psychosis-related symptoms.

    Intravital calcium imaging of meningeal macrophages reveals niche-specific dynamics and aberrant responses to brain hyperexcitability

    Simone Carneiro-Nascimento, Chao Wei ... Dan Levy
    Intravital microscopy of meningeal macrophage Ca²⁺ dynamics reveals previously unknown population heterogeneity, vasomotion-coupled activity, and diverse responses during steady state and neuroinflammatory conditions, offering relevant insights into brain immune regulation.
    1. Neuroscience

    Dissociable neural substrates of integration and segregation in exogenous attention

    Yujie Chen, Ai-Su Li ... Yang Zhang
    Dissociable neural signatures of integration and segregation provide the first direct neuroimaging evidence for the integration-segregation theory of exogenous attention.
    1. Neuroscience

    Locus coeruleus modulation of prefrontal dynamics during attentional switching in mice

    Marco Nigro, Lucas Silva Tortorelli ... Hongdian Yang
    Inhibiting locus coeruleus input to the medial prefrontal cortex in mice impaired task performance, affected the tuning of single cortical neurons and disrupted population dynamics and encoding capacity during attentional switching.
    1. Neuroscience

    An altered cell-specific subcellular distribution of translesion synthesis DNA polymerase kappa (POLK) in aging mouse neurons

    Mofida Abdelmageed, Premkumar Palanisamy ... Anirban Paul
    Progressive DNA polymerase kappa relocalization in aging neurons associates with increased DNA damage and identifies a novel cell type- and activity-dependent role in neuronal genome maintenance.

    HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein modulates CXCR4 clustering and dynamics on the T cell membrane

    Adriana Quijada-Freire, César A Santiago ... Mario Mellado
    HIV-1 remodels the spatial organization of its co-receptor, CXCR4, on T cell membranes, showing that viral entry requires receptor clustering rather than simple receptor binding.

    Drift in individual behavioral phenotype as a strategy for unpredictable worlds

    Ryan T Maloney, Athena Q Ye ... Benjamin L de Bivort
    Individual flies have idiosyncratic preferences that shift over their lifetime in a way that depends on genotype and may be adaptive to rapidly changing environmental pressures.
