    Mouse sensorimotor cortex reflects complex kinematic details during reaching and grasping

    Harrison A Grier, Sohrab Salimian, Matthew T Kaufman
    Mouse primary motor and somatosensory cortices contain detailed information about the many time-varying arm and paw joint angles during reaching and grasping, implying a 'low-level' role in controlling these movements.

    In vivo autofluorescence lifetime imaging of spatial metabolic heterogeneities and learning-induced changes in the Drosophila mushroom body

    Philémon Roussel, Mingyi Zhou ... Auguste Genovesio
    Metabolic imaging of the Drosophila mushroom body reveals distinct profiles among Kenyon cell subtypes and detects a subtle learning-associated metabolic change.
