Autistic traits are associated with weaker influence of prior expectations in visual perception, which is due to more precise sensory representations.

Analysis of data on drug-gene interactions suggests that decentralized collaboration will increase the robustness of scientific findings in biomedical research.

Publication bias, in which positive results are preferentially reported by authors and published by journals, can restrict the visibility of evidence against false claims and allow such claims to be canonized inappropriately as facts.

Careful analysis of a database populated by physicians and patients sheds new light on the side effects of drugs.

What can authors and reviewers do to keep common statistical mistakes out of the literature?

Neural coding of previous-trial confidence affects current decision policy.

Neurons in prefrontal cortex track the variance of experienced rewards to guide economic decisions.

Multi-modal structural data fusion questions the specificity of fMRI-behavior associations by providing strong evidence relating human brain structure to a wide range of behavioral measures previously associated to functional connectivity.

In natural pathogen populations opportunities for sexual outcrossing vary, leading to spatial variation in genetic diversity and between-season survival.

In richer, more even communities, foragers form broad categories among their food resources that can select for convergence among signals, including mimetic resemblances.
