    Rodent ultrasonic vocal interaction resolved with millimeter precision using hybrid beamforming

    Max L Sterling, Ruben Teunisse, Bernhard Englitz
    The accuracy of the Hybrid Vocalization Localizer (HyVL) brings a revolution to the study of social vocalizations of rodents and other animals, where vocalizations often occur in close proximity, and will empower downstream analysis of sequence and semantic analyses.

    An open-source platform for head-fixed operant and consummatory behavior

    Adam Gordon-Fennell, Joumana M Barbakh ... Garret D Stuber
    A customizable open-source hardware and software platform for conducting diverse behavioral experiments in head-fixed mice.

    Statistical inference on representational geometries

    Heiko H Schütt, Alexander D Kipnis ... Nikolaus Kriegeskorte
    New methods for statistical inference in representational similarity analysis were developed, tested thoroughly, and are made available in an open-source Python toolbox.

    Using adversarial networks to extend brain computer interface decoding accuracy over time

    Xuan Ma, Fabio Rizzoglio ... Ann Kennedy
    Incorporating cycle-consistency loss into a generative adversarial network creates a high-performance and robust 'aligner' of neural population activity, permitting a fixed intracortical brain computer interface to be used for months without recalibration and without requiring inference of a latent manifold.

    Optogenetic manipulation of neuronal and cardiomyocyte functions in zebrafish using microbial rhodopsins and adenylyl cyclases

    Hanako Hagio, Wataru Koyama ... Masahiko Hibi
    Functional assays using zebrafish reveal that various microbial channelrhodopsins, guanylyl cyclase rhodopsin, and photoactivated adenylyl cyclases function as potent optogenetic tools, effectively controlling neural activity and cardiac function in zebrafish.

    Optogenetic manipulation of Gq- and Gi/o-coupled receptor signaling in neurons and heart muscle cells

    Hanako Hagio, Wataru Koyama ... Masahiko Hibi
    Animal G-protein-coupled bistable rhodopsins can regulate Gq- and Gi-mediated signaling in a light-dependent manner in neurons and cardiomyocytes, making them useful for analyzing the roles of GPCR signaling in vivo.

    scRNA-sequencing in chick suggests a probabilistic model for cell fate allocation at the neural plate border

    Alexandre P Thiery, Ailin Leticia Buzzi ... Andrea Streit
    Neural plate border cells co-express neural, neural crest, and placodal transcriptional programs before cell fate decisions occur and are transcriptionally heterogeneous along the antero-posterior and medial-lateral axis.

    Continuous odor profile monitoring to study olfactory navigation in small animals

    Kevin S Chen, Rui Wu ... Andrew M Leifer
    To study odor-guided navigation of small animals such as worms and fly larvae, a novel flow chamber and odor sensor array are presented that better characterize the odors that the animal experiences.

    State-dependent coupling of hippocampal oscillations

    Brijesh Modi, Matteo Guardamagna ... Francesco P Battaglia
    A novel analytical framework for investigation of simultaneously occurring brain oscillations (from either single or multiple brain areas) and how it modulates the underlying neuronal population during sleep and wakefulness (or other behavioral tasks).

    Continuous, long-term crawling behavior characterized by a robotic transport system

    James Yu, Stephanie Dancausse ... Mason Klein
    Drosophila larvae manipulated by an automated system can be observed for 30+ hr, and new analysis methods of long-timescale trajectories reveal behavioral features previously inaccessible, such as a bimodal distribution of thermal navigation efficiency in individual animals.
