Using genetics, it is possible to uncouple higher adiposity from its adverse metabolic effects and show that some obesity-associated conditions may benefit from treating the metabolic effects alone, whilst others may benefit more from weight loss.

Brain-Age delta is a non-invasive marker of biological brain aging that is sensitive to the presence of risk factors and altered biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease in non-demented individuals.

Representation of sound lateralisation and intensity by neural population in the rat auditory cortex strongly depends on the brain state suggesting that the neural tuning to lateralisation is not hard-wired.

A model for evolutionary inferences at both micro- and macroevolutionary scales is proposed and evaluated theoretically and through simulations.

A computational study quantifies how macroscopic grid-like representations may emerge in the human brain using different hypotheses and navigation patterns, indicating the need to further characterize properties of grid cells.

A distinct subpopulation of neurons in the rat orbitofrontal cortex encodes reward history at the time of choice, providing a potential neural substrate by which reward history may influence decisions.

The dynamical solutions exhibited by task-optimized recurrent neural networks, and their similarity to prefrontal cortex dynamics, depends strongly on the strength of neural noise and metabolic cost imposed during training.

Simultaneous stimulation and recording in awake-behaving pigeons showed that mid-infrared stimulation, as a promising neuromodulation approach, could facilitate or suppress neuronal firing activity depending on its ongoing sensory responsiveness levels, and cause reversible and gain modulation on sensorimotor behavior.
