   Persistent coding of outcome-predictive cue features in the rat nucleus accumbens

   Jimmie M Gmaz et al.

   Neural activity in the rat nucleus accumbens provides a rich task representation that includes not only expected outcomes, but also the specific identity of the cues that predict these outcomes.

   Humidity response depends on the small soluble protein Obp59a in Drosophila

   Jennifer S Sun et al.

   Hygroreception, a poorly understood process critical to insect survival, depends on a small protein in the antenna of the fruit fly that was previously thought to transport odorants.

   Learning recurrent dynamics in spiking networks

   Christopher M Kim, Carson C Chow

   Modifying the recurrent connectivity of spiking networks provides sufficient flexibility to generate arbitrarily complex recurrent dynamics, suggesting that individual neurons in a recurrent network have the capability to support near universal dynamics.

   Species and cell-type properties of classically defined human and rodent neurons and glia

   Xiao Xu et al.

   Gene expression and epigenetic profiling of defined cell types in the central nervous system of mouse, rat, and human reveals inter-species and inter-individual differences.

   ErbB4 deletion in noradrenergic neurons in the locus coeruleus induces mania-like behavior via elevated catecholamines

   Shu-Xia Cao et al.

   Behavioral and molecular mechanistic studies elaborate the important role of ErbB4 in noradrenergic neurons associated with mania pathogenesis.

    Receptive field center-surround interactions mediate context-dependent spatial contrast encoding in the retina

    Maxwell H Turner et al.

    In the retina, the receptive field surround preserves the spatial contrast sensitivity of the center in the face of naturalistic changes in local luminance.
