    A critical re-evaluation of fMRI signatures of motor sequence learning

    Eva Berlot, Nicola J Popp, Jörn Diedrichsen
    A systematic assessment of previously proposed fMRI metrics of motor sequence learning reveals widespread activity reductions and subtle multivariate pattern changes outside of primary motor cortex.

    Prediction error and repetition suppression have distinct effects on neural representations of visual information

    Matthew F Tang, Cooper A Smout ... Jason B Mattingley
    Multivariate analyses of human electrophysiological recordings revealed that the brain represents unexpected visual stimuli with greater fidelity than expected stimuli which arose independently of simple habituation arising from repetition.

    Attentional amplification of neural codes for number independent of other quantities along the dorsal visual stream

    Elisa Castaldi, Manuela Piazza ... Evelyn Eger
    The representations of information concerning the number, size, density and surface of sets of objects in a visual image are separable along the occipito-parietal cortex and independently modulated by attention.

    Dynamic modulation of decision biases by brainstem arousal systems

    Jan Willem de Gee, Olympia Colizoli ... Tobias H Donner
    Rapid increases in the brain’s level of alertness, or arousal, contribute to variability in decision making by reducing existing biases.

    Efficient value synthesis in the orbitofrontal cortex explains how loss aversion adapts to the ranges of gain and loss prospects

    Jules Brochard, Jean Daunizeau
    Computational modeling shows how neural mechanisms for mitigating biological constraints (such as neurons’ limited firing range) may eventually result in complex though predictable irrational behavior.

    Right inferior frontal gyrus implements motor inhibitory control via beta-band oscillations in humans

    Michael Schaum, Edoardo Pinzuti ... Oliver Tüscher
    Response inhibition is initiated by the right inferior frontal gyrus (rIFG), and stopping performance is predicted by beta-band power as well as beta-band connectivity between rIFG and pre-supplementary motor area.

    Temporal selectivity declines in the aging human auditory cortex

    Julia Erb, Lea-Maria Schmitt, Jonas Obleser
    The aged human auditory cortex shows preserved tonotopy, but temporal modulations are represented with a markedly broader tuning, highlighting decreased temporal selectivity as a hallmark of the aging auditory cortex.

    Preparation for upcoming attentional states in the hippocampus and medial prefrontal cortex

    Eren Günseli, Mariam Aly
    Memory guides attention by enabling preparation for upcoming states in the hippocampus and medial prefrontal cortex.

    Network structure of brain atrophy in de novo Parkinson's disease

    Yashar Zeighami, Miguel Ulla ... Alain Dagher
    The pattern of atrophy in Parkinson's disease is consistent with the disease spreading via intrinsic brain networks.
    1. Neuroscience

    Functional specialization within the inferior parietal lobes across cognitive domains

    Ole Numssen, Danilo Bzdok, Gesa Hartwigsen
    Data-driven and effective connectivity analyses reveal patterns of functional specialization, common mechanisms, and brain-wide interaction profiles within the human inferior parietal lobes for multiple functional domains.
