Resting-state capillary blood flow and oxygenation are more homogeneous in the deeper cortical layers, underpinning an important mechanism by which the microvascular network adapts to an increased local oxidative metabolism.
When making two decisions about one object, two streams of information can be acquired in parallel but must be incorporated into the two decisions serially, consistent with a central bottleneck.

A new data analysis tool provides a concise way of visualizing neural data that summarizes all the relevant features of the population response in a single figure.
The new whale shark genome assembly represents the best gapless chondrichthyan genome assembly yet, and comparative genomic analyses provide insights into the evolution of vertebrate genome origins, immunity, and gigantism.
A new multi camera imaging platform simultaneously captures large-area, high-resolution video of unconstrained small model organisms and provides behavioral measurements that span multiple spatial scales.
Well-controlled psychological experiments show that there is little overlap in how humans and convolutional networks classify adversarial images, highlighting the problem of using CNNs as models of human vision.
Novel insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying neurotransmitter release are provided by all-atom molecular dynamics simulations including SNARE proteins, synaptotagmin-1, complexin-1, a vesicle and a flat bilayer.
Mediator, a transcriptional coactivator complex, is essential for transcription but is not a required component of a functional preinitiation complex, indicating that Mediator is not equivalent to a general transcription factor.
