    Prolonged nicotine exposure reduces aversion to the drug in mice by altering nicotinic transmission in the interpeduncular nucleus

    Sarah Mondoloni, Claire Nguyen ... Alexandre Mourot
    Inter-individual variabilities in nicotine aversion are linked with responses of the interpeduncular nucleus to the drug.

    Are single-peaked tuning curves tuned for speed rather than accuracy?

    Movitz Lenninger, Mikael Skoglund ... Arvind Kumar
    Single-peaked tuning curves found in early sensory areas are more optimized for quick decoding than accuracy, while multi-peaked tuning curves (e.g. grid cells) give higher accuracy but only at longer time scales.

    Tau polarizes an aging transcriptional signature to excitatory neurons and glia

    Timothy Wu, Jennifer M Deger ... Joshua M Shulman
    While tau and aging have highly overlapping differential gene expression signatures, they diverge in the affected cell types, with aging having a wide-ranging impact and tau-triggered changes instead polarized to excitatory neurons and glia.

    Repair of noise-induced damage to stereocilia F-actin cores is facilitated by XIRP2 and its novel mechanosensor domain

    Elizabeth L Wagner, Jun-Sub Im ... Jung-Bum Shin
    A novel mechanism for F-actin repair is involved in the maintenance of sensory hair cells and hearing function.

    Neural mechanisms of parasite-induced summiting behavior in ‘zombie’ Drosophila

    Carolyn Elya, Danylo Lavrentovich ... Benjamin de Bivort
    In zombie fruit flies, Entomophthora muscae-elicited summiting behavior is mediated by blood-borne factors and the host circadian-neurosecretory network.

    Multi-centre analysis of networks and genes modulated by hypothalamic stimulation in patients with aggressive behaviours

    Flavia Venetucci Gouveia, Jurgen Germann ... Clement Hamani
    Integrated imaging analysis of a large multi-center dataset showed that treatment of refractory aggressive behavior with hypothalamic deep brain stimulation is highly effective with specific clinical and neuroimaging features associated with treatment success.

    The locus coeruleus broadcasts prediction errors across the cortex to promote sensorimotor plasticity

    Rebecca Jordan, Georg B Keller
    A brain-wide neuromodulatory system enables rapid cortical plasticity to occur by signaling sensorimotor prediction errors across wide regions of the cerebral cortex.

    Neural circuit-wide analysis of changes to gene expression during deafening-induced birdsong destabilization

    Bradley M Colquitt, Kelly Li ... Michael S Brainard
    Large-scale gene expression analysis of the songbird brain identifies the molecular and cellular features of vocal motor circuits that are altered by the loss of hearing.

    Neural dynamics underlying self-control in the primate subthalamic nucleus

    Benjamin Pasquereau, Robert S Turner
    Cost–benefit integration between the desirability of the expected reward and the imposed delay to delivery is supported by STN signals that dynamically combined both reward-related attributes to form a single integrated value estimate along an antero-posterior axis in this nucleus.
