An efficient coding theory for higher-level cognitive processes reveals that humans efficiently adapt to contextual distributions by economizing on environmental prior information.

The NWB data language enables reproduction, interchange, and reuse of diverse neurophysiology data, and the design principles of NWB are generally applicable to enhance discovery across biology through data FAIRness.

Individuals with a history of adverse childhood experiences show blunted response to threat and reward irrespective of sample and paradigm characteristics and despite heterogeneity in adversity operationalization and assessment.

Ants are subjected to logarithmic value perception, causing deviation from pure rationality as described by classical economics decision theories.

Cocaine elicits opposing activity changes in D1R vs D2R spiny projection neurons of the nucleus accumbens with much variability, subsequent recruitment of a subset of D1R neurons drives behavioral sensitization.

The rodent orbitofrontal cortex makes functionally distinct contributions to flexible behavioural control, even within a single putative orbitofrontal subregion, which has important implications for establishing homology between rodent and primate orbitofrontal cortex.

Science hackathons can help academics, particularly those in the early stage of their careers, to build collaborations and write research proposals.

Each stage of the scientific life cycle stands to benefit from the introduction of data science techniques.

For mice, knowing when it is time to feed is dependent on the neurotransmitter dopamine and the D1R receptor of neurons in the dorsal striatum.

Reward-related cues elicit phasic changes in activity in ventral pallidum neurons, which predict and functionally contribute to the speed of behaviors trained on the basis of act-outcome, but not stimulus-outcome, contingencies.
