Challenging a popular theory in neuroeconomics, a computational cognitive study provides evidence against divisive normalization, a supposedly canonical neural computation, in favor of an alternative account, range normalization, in the context of value learning.

Neutral tagging and detailed analysis of bacterial growth kinetics can quantify the mechanisms of colonization resistance in differently colonized animals.

Having the eye open under the patch, even though this does not change the exogenous stimulation because the eye is occluded, will result in an enhanced short-term effect for ocular dominance due to the internal neural states.

Centrosomal Aurora A (AIR-1), together with cortical actomyosin flows, induces polarization of ECT-2, the activator of RHO-1, during polarization and cytokinesis, in order to promote furrow formation.

Intracranial recordings indicate that the insula encodes, in a partially intermixed layout, both static and dynamic cues from different body parts that reflect the intensity of pain experienced by others.

Structural and biochemical analysis of semisynthetic Akt forms and mutants has revealed the importance of a key interaction network involving Arg86, Glu17, and Tyr18 that controls Akt conformation and activity.

Rapid evolution and gene conversion of a primate cell surface receptor family blocks recognition by pathogenic bacteria.

Src phosphorylates GBF1, promoting binding of the Sec7 domain to Arf1 and the formation of GALNTs containing tubules emanating from the Golgi.

Precise motor control is supported by connectivity within a cortical grasping network from childhood to adulthood, but older individuals display more top-down control and superior motor performance compared to children.

The direction-selective circuit in the retina adjusts the contributions of excitatory and inhibitory mechanisms under different stimulus conditions to generate context-dependent neural representations of visual features.
