    Rate-distortion theory of neural coding and its implications for working memory

    Anthony MV Jakob, Samuel J Gershman
    The abstract framework of rate-distortion theory can be realized by a neural population coding model to reproduce key and previously unexplained regularities of human visual working memory.

    Nested circuits mediate the decision to vocalize

    Shuyun Xiao, Valerie Michael, Richard Mooney
    The decision to vocalize depends on neural circuits that balance the rewards of potential social affiliation with the risks of advertising.

    FUS regulates RAN translation through modulating the G-quadruplex structure of GGGGCC repeat RNA in C9orf72-linked ALS/FTD

    Yuzo Fujino, Morio Ueyama ... Yoshitaka Nagai
    Alteration of the G-quadruplex structure formed by GGGGCC repeat RNA through the direct interaction with RNA-binding proteins can suppress pathogenic repeat-associated non-AUG translation, leading to therapeutic effects on neurodegeneration in C9orf72-linked amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia.

    Prefrontal cortex state representations shape human credit assignment

    Amrita Lamba, Matthew R Nassar, Oriel FeldmanHall
    The medial prefrontal cortex and orbitofrontal cortex work in concert to match state representations from feedback to those at choice, and the strength of these common neural codes predict credit assignment precision.

    Rapid, automated, and experimenter-free touchscreen testing reveals reciprocal interactions between cognitive flexibility and activity-based anorexia in female rats

    Kaixin Huang, Laura K Milton ... Claire J Foldi
    An automated touchscreen cognitive testing system for rats reduces the length of training required to learn tasks, making it possible to assess cognitive profiles in adolescent animals to more appropriately capture cognitive deficits in adolescent pathologies, such as anorexia nervosa.

    Importance of glutamine in synaptic vesicles revealed by functional studies of SLC6A17 and its mutations pathogenic for intellectual disability

    Xiaobo Jia, Jiemin Zhu ... Yi Rao
    Physiological studies of SLC6A17 and its pathogenic mutations revealed that glutamine is transported into synaptic vesicles (SVs) in an SLC6A17-dependent manner and all pathogenic conditions reduced glutamine level in SVs.

    Sharing neurophysiology data from the Allen Brain Observatory

    Saskia EJ de Vries, Joshua H Siegle, Christof Koch
    A growing community demand for open neurophysiology data calls for new standards and tools to help scientists share data from their experiments, find relevant datasets that others have collected, and track data reuse across the literature.

    SNORD90 induces glutamatergic signaling following treatment with monoaminergic antidepressants

    Rixing Lin, Aron Kos ... Gustavo Turecki
    A small non-coding RNA, SNORD90, links monoaminergic directed antidepressant treatment with glutamatergic activation.

    Dopamine signaling regulates predator-driven changes in Caenorhabditis elegans’ egg laying behavior

    Amy Pribadi, Michael A Rieger ... Sreekanth H Chalasani
    Caenorhabditis elegans responds to predator threat by using dopamine signaling to alter the distribution of their eggs.
