    Molecular characterization of cell types in the squid Loligo vulgaris

    Jules Duruz, Marta Sprecher ... Simon G Sprecher
    Single-cell transcriptomics correlated with in situ gene expression analysis provide an overview of the diversity and molecular features of cell types in the squid Loligo vulgaris.

    Quantification of gait parameters in freely walking wild type and sensory deprived Drosophila melanogaster

    César S Mendes, Imre Bartos ... Richard S Mann
    Novel imaging experiments suggest that fruit flies modify their neural circuitry for walking at slow, medium and fast speeds, and that proprioception is not essential for coordinated walking.

    Evolutionary convergence of a neural mechanism in the cavefish lateral line system

    Elias T Lunsford, Alexandra Paz ... James C Liao
    The underlying neurophysiology of the lateral line system in blind cavefish (Astyanax mexicanus) has evolutionarily converged on elevated afferent neuron activity and partial loss of function in inhibitory efferent neurons, both of which contribute to enhanced sensitivity to flow stimuli.

    An insect-like mushroom body in a crustacean brain

    Gabriella Hannah Wolff, Hanne Halkinrud Thoen ... Nicholas James Strausfeld
    An insect-like mushroom body in one group of crustaceans, the mantis shrimps (Stomatopoda), suggests either an ancient origin of this center and its reduction and loss in other crustaceans, or an extraordinary example of convergent evolution with the insect mushroom body.

    Behavioral evidence for nested central pattern generator control of Drosophila grooming

    Primoz Ravbar, Neil Zhang, Julie H Simpson
    Complex motor behaviors can be assembled from simpler repeating elements controlled by pattern-generation circuits operating at different time scales.

    Response to short-term deprivation of the human adult visual cortex measured with 7T BOLD

    Paola Binda, Jan W Kurzawski ... Maria Concetta Morrone
    Two hour deprivation of vision in one eye transiently boosts the representation of the deprived eye (suppressing the non-deprived eye) in adult human V1 and along the ventral pathway.

    Peripheral sensory coding through oscillatory synchrony in weakly electric fish

    Christa A Baker, Kevin R Huck, Bruce A Carlson
    Sensory receptors encode stimuli by transiently synchronizing ongoing electrical oscillations, conferring enhanced sensitivity to communication signals produced by large groups of conspecifics.

    A double-sided microscope to realize whole-ganglion imaging of membrane potential in the medicinal leech

    Yusuke Tomina, Daniel A Wagenaar
    For the first time, action potentials and subthreshold postsynaptic potentials of almost all individual identifiable neurons within a functional unit of the leech nervous system were simultaneously imaged during sensory processing and behavioral generation.

    Variability in locomotor dynamics reveals the critical role of feedback in task control

    Ismail Uyanik, Shahin Sefati ... Noah J Cowan
    Animals rely on sensory feedback rather than the precise tuning in the nervous system to achieve robust behavioral performances.

    Molecular, cellular, and developmental organization of the mouse vomeronasal organ at single cell resolution

    Max Henry Hills, Limei Ma ... C Ron Yu
    A transcriptomic atlas of the mouse vomeronasal organ reveals novel receptor co-expression patterns and provides a framework for understanding sensory neuron lineage and receptor specification.
