    Impaired voice processing in reward and salience circuits predicts social communication in children with autism

    Daniel Arthur Abrams, Aarthi Padmanabhan ... Vinod Menon
    Children with autism often 'tune out' the voices in their environment and new results show that impaired processing of voices in the brain's reward system may underlie this social behavior.

    A unified neural account of contextual and individual differences in altruism

    Jie Hu, Arkady Konovalov, Christian C Ruff
    Individual and situational differences in altruistic behavior do not reflect use of fundamentally different decision mechanisms, but instead differences in early perceptual or attentional processing of the choice-relevant information.

    Evidence for a deep, distributed and dynamic code for animacy in human ventral anterior temporal cortex

    Timothy T Rogers, Christopher R Cox ... Matthew A Lambon Ralph
    Signals recorded directly from human anterior temporal cortex reveal that the brain represents animacy information using a distributed code that changes radically as a stimulus is processed, as predicted by an artificial neural network model.

    Stimulus-specific plasticity in human visual gamma-band activity and functional connectivity

    Benjamin J Stauch, Alina Peter ... Pascal Fries
    When visual stimuli are repeated, gamma oscillations in human early visual cortex and feedforward gamma synchronization across the visual system show stimulus-specific and persistent increases.
    1. Neuroscience

    Dissociable laminar profiles of concurrent bottom-up and top-down modulation in the human visual cortex

    Samuel JD Lawrence, David G Norris, Floris P de Lange
    Neural activity in the visual system is increased in different layers of the neocortex for bottom-up and top-down modulations.

    Stress diminishes outcome but enhances response representations during instrumental learning

    Jacqueline Katharina Meier, Bernhard P Staresina, Lars Schwabe
    Decoding of neural outcome and response representations allows dissecting goal-directed and habitual contributions to behaviour and reveals how acute stress biases the instrumental control of behaviour.
    1. Neuroscience

    Inconsistencies between human and macaque lesion data can be resolved with a stimulus-computable model of the ventral visual stream

    Tyler Bonnen, Mark AG Eldridge
    A 'stimulus-computable' modeling approach resolves apparent inconsistencies between human and monkey lesion data, implicating perirhinal cortex in visual object perception.

    Spherical arena reveals optokinetic response tuning to stimulus location, size, and frequency across entire visual field of larval zebrafish

    Florian A Dehmelt, Rebecca Meier ... Aristides B Arrenberg
    Systematic stimulation across the entire visual field reveals that zebrafish optokinetic behavior is most strongly driven by lateral stimulus locations, as a result of both retinal and extra-retinal effects.
    1. Neuroscience

    Estimating and interpreting nonlinear receptive field of sensory neural responses with deep neural network models

    Menoua Keshishian, Hassan Akbari ... Nima Mesgarani
    A comprehensive, data-driven and interpretable nonlinear computational modeling framework based on deep neural networks uncovers different nonlinear transformations of speech signal in the human auditory cortex.
    1. Neuroscience

    Ultra-Rapid serial visual presentation reveals dynamics of feedforward and feedback processes in the ventral visual pathway

    Yalda Mohsenzadeh, Sheng Qin ... Dimitrios Pantazis
    Reducing visibility with higher image presentation rates increases recurrent processing demands along the visual processing pathway to resolve object recognition.
