Neural sensory representations impose an inductive bias over the space of learning tasks, allowing some tasks to be learned by a downstream neuron more sample-efficiently than others.
Brain-specific inactivation of cohesin-STAG2 in the mouse causes myelination defects, thus implicating hypomyelination as a contributing factor to cohesinopathy and establishing oligodendrocytes as a cell system to probe the physiological function of cohesin-mediated genome folding.

Deciding which of two perceptual decisions is more difficult involves sequential sampling processes that terminate when the difference in accumulated evidence for each decision exceeds a threshold.

Node of Ranvier length is similar at successive nodes along single myelinated CNS axons, but differs between axons, and could potentially be tuned to adjust the conduction velocity of each axon.
