    Decoding the neural mechanisms of human tool use

    Jason P Gallivan, D Adam McLean ... Jody C Culham
    Imaging experiments reveal that some brain regions do not distinguish between actions performed using tools and those performed using the hands, while others represent these two types of action separately.
    1. Neuroscience

    Skill learning strengthens cortical representations of motor sequences

    Tobias Wiestler, Jörn Diedrichsen
    Detailed analysis of fMRI data shows that sequences of movements are associated with individual patterns of neural activity that become more distinct with training.
    1. Neuroscience

    Fast transient networks in spontaneous human brain activity

    Adam P Baker, Matthew J Brookes ... Mark Woolrich
    Non-invasive MEG recordings reveal that patterns of spontaneous activity in the resting brain are shorter lived than previously thought.
    1. Neuroscience

    Human premotor areas parse sequences into their spatial and temporal features

    Katja Kornysheva, Jörn Diedrichsen
    Neuroimaging provides novel insights into how the motor system represents sequences of actions by automatically separating their spatial and temporal features for flexible skill production.
    1. Neuroscience

    Causal manipulation of functional connectivity in a specific neural pathway during behaviour and at rest

    Vanessa M Johnen, Franz-Xaver Neubert ... Matthew F S Rushworth
    Functional connectivity in the human brain reflects changes in synaptic plasticity induced with repeated paired stimulation.
    1. Neuroscience

    Dissociable roles of the inferior longitudinal fasciculus and fornix in face and place perception

    Carl J Hodgetts, Mark Postans ... Kim S Graham
    Structure-function associations in medial temporal lobe reflect specialised, behaviourally-relevant neurocognitive circuits for the perception of faces and places.

    Network structure of brain atrophy in de novo Parkinson's disease

    Yashar Zeighami, Miguel Ulla ... Alain Dagher
    The pattern of atrophy in Parkinson's disease is consistent with the disease spreading via intrinsic brain networks.

    Competing basal ganglia pathways determine the difference between stopping and deciding not to go

    Kyle Dunovan, Brighid Lynch ... Timothy Verstynen
    A model based on the architecture of basal ganglia and validated with behavior and neuroimaging distinguishes mechanisms of action cancellation from no-go decisions.
    1. Neuroscience

    Massive cortical reorganization in sighted Braille readers

    Katarzyna Siuda-Krzywicka, Łukasz Bola ... Marcin Szwed
    Teaching a tactile alphabet to sighted adults reveals the brain’s unexpected potential for change.
    1. Neuroscience

    The hierarchical organization of the lateral prefrontal cortex

    Derek Evan Nee, Mark D'Esposito
    Areas in the middle of the lateral prefrontal cortex select behaviors by taking into account both current and future needs.
