An analysis of the first complete synaptic resolution connectome of Drosophila's navigation circuit uncovers neural network motifs supporting broadly relevant sensorimotor computations.

A principle from which the neuronal dynamics and synaptic plasticity in arbitrary network architectures can be inferred, so that output errors are online minimized while simultaneously processing sensory input streams.

In-built competing effects are present at different levels in signaling networks, starting from basic biochemical building blocks to the network level, and mathematical and computational analysis reveals when they give rise to biphasic responses and what the consequences are.

To make reliable but metabolically efficient perceptual inferences in a changing world, neural systems should dynamically adapt based on surprise and uncertainty about the sensory environment.

Independent dating techniques have established that the H. naledi fossils are between 236 and 335 thousand years old, indicating that small-brained hominins with relatively primitive body shapes co-existed with our early ancestors in Africa.

Attention reduces noise correlations through enhancing inhibitory feedback in cortical networks.
