    The expression of established cognitive brain states stabilizes with working memory development

    David Florentino Montez, Finnegan J Calabro, Beatriz Luna
    The excessive behavioral variability associated with adolescence is the result of greater instability of widespread or global gain signals which produces greater variability in the amplitude of expression of whole-brain states of task-related activity.

    The corticospinal tract primarily modulates sensory inputs in the mouse lumbar cord

    Yunuen Moreno-Lopez, Charlotte Bichara ... Matilde Cordero-Erausquin
    While the corticospinal tract is often considered exclusively as a motor path, a combination of intersectional viral strategy and in vivo electrophysiology reveals that, in the mouse lumbar cord, its main role is the modulation of sensory inputs.

    Saccadic suppression as a perceptual consequence of efficient sensorimotor estimation

    Frédéric Crevecoeur, Konrad P Kording
    Neural computations necessary for efficient control of saccades capture the phenomenon of saccadic suppression, which suggests that neural resources are shared for perception and control.

    Efficient recognition of facial expressions does not require motor simulation

    Gilles Vannuscorps, Michael Andres, Alfonso Caramazza
    It is possible to account for efficient facial expression recognition without having to invoke a mechanism of motor simulation, even in very sensitive and challenging tasks.

    FoxP2 isoforms delineate spatiotemporal transcriptional networks for vocal learning in the zebra finch

    Zachary Daniel Burkett, Nancy F Day ... Stephanie A White
    Basal ganglia gene coexpression patterns shift across the sensorimotor critical period for vocal learning.

    Silhouette of a zebra finch on a blue background.

    The Natural History of Model Organisms: Neurogenomic insights into the behavioral and vocal development of the zebra finch

    Mark E Hauber, Matthew IM Louder, Simon C Griffith
    The genetic and behavioral diversity of the zebra finch, both in the wild and in captivity, make it well-suited for neuroethological studies of vocal learning, culture, and social bonding.

    Electrocorticography is superior to subthalamic local field potentials for movement decoding in Parkinson’s disease

    Timon Merk, Victoria Peterson ... Wolf-Julian Neumann
    Advanced machine learning based brain signal decoding of grip-force as a proxy for movement vigor shows Parkinson's disease related performance reduction, suggestive of a loss of cortical vigor encoding in the absence of dopamine.

    Fine-grained functional parcellation maps of the infant cerebral cortex

    Fan Wang, Han Zhang ... Gang Li
    Advanced computational processing and analysis of functional MRI create the first comprehensive set of high-resolution cortical parcellations maps of infant brains.

    SMC5/6 is required for replication fork stability and faithful chromosome segregation during neurogenesis

    Alisa Atkins, Michelle J Xu ... Philip W Jordan
    The structural maintenance of chromosomes complex, SMC5/6, is crucial for brain development and function as it ensures proficient DNA replication in neural progenitor cells prior to chromosome segregation.

    Tracking the neurodevelopmental trajectory of beta band oscillations with optically pumped magnetometer-based magnetoencephalography

    Lukas Rier, Natalie Rhodes ... Matthew J Brookes
    The first neurodevelopmental study using a novel, wearable brain imaging system based on optically pumped magnetometers, shows age-related changes in neural oscillatory task responses and cortical functional connectivity.
