    Contrasting action and posture coding with hierarchical deep neural network models of proprioception

    Kai J Sandbrink, Pranav Mamidanna ... Alexander Mathis
    To isolate and study proprioception, hierarchical deep neural networks paired with biomechanical models provide a normative approach to test the role of task effects on neural representations, such as the emergence of kinematic tuning and higher-level abstractions of actions.

    Integrating analog and digital modes of gene expression at Arabidopsis FLC

    Rea L Antoniou-Kourounioti, Anis Meschichi ... Martin Howard
    The regulation of gene expression can be either binary (on/off digital regulation) or graded (analog regulation) and these fundamentally different regulatory modes can be integrated to control the expression of the same gene.

    Spatial structure favors microbial coexistence except when slower mediator diffusion weakens interactions

    Alexander Lobanov, Samantha Dyckman ... Babak Momeni
    Investigating microbial communities in a spatial environment in silico suggests that spatial structure promotes higher coexistence by allowing spatial self-organization, but can hinder coexistence by weakening interactions mediated through diffusible metabolites.

    Associations of four biological age markers with child development: A multi-omic analysis in the European HELIX cohort

    Oliver Robinson, ChungHo E Lau ... Martine Vrijheid
    Among European children, shorter telomere length and older DNA methylation age relative to chronological age were associated with poorer behaviors, while older age, as predicted by a novel immunometabolic clock relative to chronological age, was associated with greater cognitive maturity.

    From actin waves to mechanism and back: How theory aids biological understanding

    Carsten Beta, Leah Edelstein-Keshet ... Arik Yochelis
    Mathematical methods reveal common underlying principles in diverse models of intracellular actin waves.

    Flexible control of representational dynamics in a disinhibition-based model of decision-making

    Bo Shen, Kenway Louie, Paul Glimcher
    Local disinhibition provides a biologically plausible mechanism for flexible top-down control of network states that integrates normalized value coding, winner-take-all choice, and persistent activity in a single circuit of decision-making.

    Model discovery to link neural activity to behavioral tasks

    Jamie D Costabile, Kaarthik A Balakrishnan ... Martin Haesemeyer
    Model identification of neural encoding is an accessible system for the analysis of neural data that allows identifying and characterizing arbitrary relationships between neural activity and task-related variables such as behavior, stimuli, or internal states.
