The numerous reports in support of action-value representation in the striatum are based on statistical analyses that are subject to two critical confounds and, thus, this long-held belief of striatal action-value representation should be retested using different experiments and analyses.

Visual, motor, and forward model gains learn from a postdictive update of space to keep perception and saccadic motor function aligned.

A novel analysis of neural activity recorded in monkeys performing a “brain-machine interface” task reveals that a mismatch between motor effectors and the brains’ internal models of those effectors can explain a substantial portion of movement errors.

Harbor porpoises dynamically control biosonar field of view as they track and capture prey, focusing the beam through deformations to the melon.

In vivo and ex vivo analysis of the activity-regulated gene Rem2 in the mouse visual system sheds new light on the contribution of intrinsic excitability in circuit plasticity.

The subcortical visual pathway through the midbrain superior colliculus is responsible for visually evoked Pavlovian conditioning and dopamine neuron responses with predicted value in monkeys, which remained after lesioning V1.

Behavioural evidence and computational analyses suggest that people tend to decline the pursuit of more rewarded goals because they, wrongly, expect them to require more effortful actions.

Electrophysiological and computational approaches show that superficial and deep cerebellar granule cells preferentially fire during low- and high-frequency inputs, respectively, enabling a Fourier-like transformation in the granule cell layer.

Plant drugs used by ancient Graeco-Roman societies have tastes and flavours that predict how they were used therapeutically.

Local disinhibition provides a biologically plausible mechanism for flexible top-down control of network states that integrates normalized value coding, winner-take-all choice, and persistent activity in a single circuit of decision-making.
