    Neural precursors of decisions that matter—an ERP study of deliberate and arbitrary choice

    Uri Maoz, Gideon Yaffe ... Liad Mudrik
    The readiness potential—a long-established neural precursor of voluntary action claimed to precede the onset of the conscious decision to move—is absent, or at least significantly reduced, for deliberate decisions.

    Control of protein synthesis and memory by GluN3A-NMDA receptors through inhibition of GIT1/mTORC1 assembly

    María J Conde-Dusman, Partha N Dey ... Isabel Perez-Otaño
    Non-conventional NMDA receptors containing GluN3A subunits place constraints on the capacity of the brain to encode lasting memories through regulation of synaptic GIT1/mTOR signaling complexes.

    Flexible utilization of spatial- and motor-based codes for the storage of visuo-spatial information

    Margaret M Henderson, Rosanne L Rademaker, John T Serences
    When human participants are able to plan responses in a visuo-spatial working memory task, sensory-like representations of remembered spatial position in early visual and parietal cortex adaptively trade off with motor-like representations of upcoming actions in sensorimotor cortex.

    Innate lymphoid cells and COVID-19 severity in SARS-CoV-2 infection

    Noah J Silverstein, Yetao Wang ... Jeremy Luban
    Homeostatic innate lymphoid cell abundance, adjusted for age and sex, correlates inversely with COVID-19 severity in adults and children.

    Brain Communication: What calcium channels remember

    Thomas Kaas, Jana Nerlich, Stefan Hallermann
    A new mechanism involving intermediate gating states of calcium channels explains how analogue postsynaptic potentials influence neurotransmitter release.

    Large-scale replication study reveals a limit on probabilistic prediction in language comprehension

    Mante S Nieuwland, Stephen Politzer-Ahles ... Falk Huettig
    Large-scale replication study with brain potentials challenges the view that people routinely predict the phonological form of a predictable word during language comprehension.

    Decreased motor cortex excitability mirrors own hand disembodiment during the rubber hand illusion

    Francesco della Gatta, Francesca Garbarini ... Paola Borroni
    An illusion in which individuals feel that their own hand no longer belongs to them may reflect a temporary reduction in the brain’s ability to control the movement of the hand.

    Mesoscale cortex-wide neural dynamics predict self-initiated actions in mice several seconds prior to movement

    Catalin Mitelut, Yongxu Zhang ... Timothy H Murphy
    Mouse self-initiated behaviors can be identified seconds prior to action and have similar neuro-dynamical structure to neural dynamics underlying human voluntary actions supporting the use of mouse models in self-initiated and volitional action research.
  1. Research Culture: Creating SPACE to evolve academic assessment

    Ruth Schmidt, Stephen Curry, Anna Hatch
    The San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA) has developed a new tool called SPACE to support universities and institutions working to improve the assessment of research.

    An insect anti-antiaphrodisiac

    Colin S Brent, John A Byers, Anat Levi-Zada
    The first evidence is presented of a compound released by mated females that directly counteracts the effects of a seminal anti-aphrodisiac, but has no attractant properties in itself.
