    Cerebellar involvement in an evidence-accumulation decision-making task

    Ben Deverett, Sue Ann Koay ... Samuel S-H Wang
    In a new evidence-accumulation decision-making task, activity of the lateral posterior cerebellum is necessary for accurate performance, and somatic and dendritic activity in Purkinje cells contains choice/evidence and error-related information.

    A circuit motif in the zebrafish hindbrain for a two alternative behavioral choice to turn left or right

    Minoru Koyama, Francesca Minale ... Joseph R Fetcho
    Competition between neurons on the left and right sides of the brain drives the decision to turn left versus right in zebrafish, and potentially all vertebrates.

    A thalamocortical circuit for updating action-outcome associations

    Virginie Fresno, Shauna L Parkes ... Mathieu Wolff
    Disconnection of the orbitofrontal cortex from the submedius nucleus but not the mediodorsal thalamus prevented rats to respond adaptively following action-outcome reversal, showing differential involvement of these thalamocortical circuits.

    Engineering of a synthetic quadrastable gene network to approach Waddington landscape and cell fate determination

    Fuqing Wu, Ri-Qi Su ... Xiao Wang
    A synthetic quadrastable gene network provides a synthetic biology framework to study cell fate determination.

    A bidirectional corticoamygdala circuit for the encoding and retrieval of detailed reward memories

    Ana C Sias, Ashleigh K Morse ... Kate M Wassum
    The bidirectional orbitofrontal cortex-basolateral amygdala circuit helps us to learn the details of predicted rewarding events and then to use that information to make good reward pursuit decisions.

    Human subthalamic nucleus activity during non-motor decision making

    Baltazar A Zavala, Anthony I Jang, Kareem A Zaghloul
    Intraoperative human brain recordings during a memory task reveal that when participants inhibit memory formation, the subthalamic nucleus shows higher beta power and beta coherence with areas of the lateral cortex implicated in memory processing.
    1. Neuroscience

    A locomotor neural circuit persists and functions similarly in larvae and adult Drosophila

    Kristen Lee, Chris Q Doe
    Descending interneurons maintain synaptic connectivity and behavioral function despite pruning during metamorphosis, showing that synaptic specificity is established twice at different life stages.
    1. Neuroscience

    Distinct roles of striatal direct and indirect pathways in value-based decision making

    Shinae Kwak, Min Whan Jung
    The direct and indirect pathways of the dorsal striatum play indispensable roles in value-dependent action selection and value learning, respectively.

    An incentive circuit for memory dynamics in the mushroom body of Drosophila melanogaster

    Evripidis Gkanias, Li Yan McCurdy ... Barbara Webb
    Modelling differential roles for identified dopaminergic and output neurons of the fruit fly mushroom bodies, combined with a novel dopaminergic plasticity rule, explains neural and behavioural phenomena in olfactory learning tasks.

    Adolescent neurostimulation of dopamine circuit reverses genetic deficits in frontal cortex function

    Surjeet Mastwal, Xinjian Li ... Kuan Hong Wang
    Frontal cortical circuit alterations and cognitive deficits identified in mouse genetic models are reversed by chemogenetic or optogenetic stimulation of the mesocortical dopamine circuit in an adolescent period.
