Horizontal gene transfer between distantly related bacterial species is frequent and widespread and can be efficiently identified using alignment-free methods.
Humans can rapidly build a new controller when learning continuous movement tasks and can flexibly integrate this process with adaptation of an existing controller.
The bidirectional orbitofrontal cortex-basolateral amygdala circuit helps us to learn the details of predicted rewarding events and then to use that information to make good reward pursuit decisions.
