    Point of View: Beware ‘persuasive communication devices’ when writing and reading scientific articles

    Olivier Corneille, Jo Havemann ... Leon D Lotter
    Authors should be open about the limitations of their work and not overstate its importance.

    retro-Tango enables versatile retrograde circuit tracing in Drosophila

    Altar Sorkaç, Rareș A Moșneanu ... Gilad Barnea
    retro-Tango, developed and validated in multiple circuits in Drosophila melanogaster, is established as a genetically encoded, transsynaptic labeling system in the retrograde direction.

    Theta- and gamma-band oscillatory uncoupling in the macaque hippocampus

    Saman Abbaspoor, Ahmed T Hussin, Kari L Hoffman
    Oscillations that co-occur in hippocampal CA1 during exploration in the rodent are shown to segregate according to exploratory and sleep states in the primate.

    Disease-modifying effects of sodium selenate in a model of drug-resistant, temporal lobe epilepsy

    Pablo M Casillas-Espinosa, Alison Anderson ... Terence J O'Brien
    Sodium selenate is the first treatment with persistent disease-modifying effects reducing seizures and improving cognitive deficits, in chronically epileptic and drug-resistant TLE animals.

    Dynamics of pulsatile activities of arcuate kisspeptin neurons in aging female mice

    Teppei Goto, Mitsue Hagihara, Kazunari Miyamichi
    The pulsatile activities of kisspeptin neurons, the central pacemaker activities of reproductive functions, show unexpected robustness in terms of frequency, but a tendency for the intensity to decline, during the transition to reproductive senescence in mice.

    Modulation of sleep by trafficking of lipids through the Drosophila blood-brain barrier

    Fu Li, Gregory Artiushin, Amita Sehgal
    Metabolites, such as acylcarnitines, accumulate in Drosophila heads when endocytosis is blocked and reflects an increased need for sleep.

    Temporal integration is a robust feature of perceptual decisions

    Alexandre Hyafil, Jaime de la Rocha ... Jonathan W Pillow
    Responses of monkeys, rats, and humans performing perceptual discrimination of discrete-sample stimuli rely on accumulation over time of sensory evidence.

    Scn1a-GFP transgenic mouse revealed Nav1.1 expression in neocortical pyramidal tract projection neurons

    Tetsushi Yamagata, Ikuo Ogiwara ... Kazuhiro Yamakawa
    In neocortex, Nav1.1 is expressed in neocortical pyramidal tract projection neurons and a minor subpopulation of cortico-cortical projection neurons in addition to its predominant expression in inhibitory neurons, while the majority of cortico-thalamic, cortico-striatal, and cortico-cortical neurons express Nav1.2.

    Large-scale electrophysiology and deep learning reveal distorted neural signal dynamics after hearing loss

    Shievanie Sabesan, Andreas Fragner ... Nicholas A Lesica
    Deep neural network modeling of auditory processing identifies distorted cross-frequency interactions as the key problem for the processing of speech in noise after hearing loss.

    Synaptic and circuit mechanisms prevent detrimentally precise correlation in the developing mammalian visual system

    Ruben A Tikidji-Hamburyan, Gubbi Govindaiah ... Matthew T Colonnese
    The imprecise and broad connectivity of retinal inputs during development have the potential to generate large correlations in target neurons that reduce retinotopic information unless suppressed by the special synaptic and circuit properties present at these ages.
