    Future movement plans interact in sequential arm movements

    Mehrdad Kashefi, Sasha Reschechtko ... J Andrew Pruszynski
    To ensure smooth sequential actions, reaches to at least two future targets are planned during the execution of the current reach and the planning processes of the future reaches interact.

    A causal role for right frontopolar cortex in directed, but not random, exploration

    Wojciech K Zajkowski, Malgorzata Kossut, Robert C Wilson
    Disruption of right frontopolar cortex with transcranial magnetic stimulation causes selective deficits in exploratory behavior suggesting that different strategies of exploration are implemented by different neural circuits.

    Integrating contact tracing and whole-genome sequencing to track the elimination of dog-mediated rabies: An observational and genomic study

    Kennedy Lushasi, Kirstyn Brunker ... Katie Hampson
    Contact tracing data reveal how a One Health approach underpinned by dog vaccination interrupts rabies transmission in reservoir populations removing the risk to humans, while virus genome data highlight the importance of surveillance and sustained dog vaccination in connected populations.

    Point of View: Tuberculosis innovations mean little if they cannot save lives

    Madhukar Pai, Jennifer Furin
    Ending the TB epidemic requires scaling up access to new TB tools so that they can benefit the patients in low- and middle-income countries that need them the most.

    Task-dependent coarticulation of movement sequences

    Hari Teja Kalidindi, Frederic Crevecoeur
    Long-latency reflexes flexibly encode future goals during sequential reaching movements, reflecting the parallel and task-dependent processing of a sequence of goals in circuits that mediate fast feedback control.

    Neural learning rules for generating flexible predictions and computing the successor representation

    Ching Fang, Dmitriy Aronov ... Emily L Mackevicius
    A recurrent network using a simple, biologically plausible learning rule can learn the successor representation, suggesting that long-horizon predictions are computations that are easily accessible in neural circuits.

    Time preferences are reliable across time-horizons and verbal versus experiential tasks

    Evgeniya Lukinova, Yuyue Wang ... Jeffrey C Erlich
    People have stable time-preferences regardless of whether they are measured using a non-verbal experiential task, as is typical in animal experiments, or using a more traditional verbal task.
    1. Neuroscience

    Independent and interacting value systems for reward and information in the human brain

    Irene Cogliati Dezza, Axel Cleeremans, William H Alexander
    Reward and information are independently optimized in the human prefrontal cortex, while their signals combine in subcortical regions.
