A flexible but automatic stimulus-response mapping mechanism complements forward model recalibration in walking adaptation, immediately accounting for perceived changes in the environment through perception altered by the same recalibration process.

The acquisition and expression of Pavlovian conditioned responding are shown to be lawfully related to objectively specifiable temporal properties of the events the animal is learning about.

Disrupting left superior frontal sulcus selectively impaired perceptual but not value-based decisions, revealing segregated prefrontal circuits for integrating sensory evidence versus subjective preferences in human choice behaviour.

Cautious action timing under threat depends on glutamatergic signaling from the subthalamic nucleus to the midbrain, revealing a circuit mechanism for adaptive goal-directed behavior.

Intrinsic neural attractors and extrinsic environmental inputs jointly steer the dynamic trajectories of brain activity during threat processing.

An innovative and scalable proximity labelling method profiled proteins present in the Caenorhabditis elegans brain during learning, identifying known regulators as well as novel biological pathways.

Analyses of self-paced reading times reveal that linguistic prediction deteriorates under limited executive resources, with this resource sensitivity becoming markedly more pronounced with advancing age.

Developmentally-based directed differentiation from cortical progenitors sets a foundation for in vitro mechanistic and therapeutic disease modeling, and toward regenerative neuronal repopulation and circuit repair.

A microglia replacement approach demonstrates that brain macrophages with patient mutations from Aicardi–Goutières syndrome, a genetic, brain predominant interferonopathy, are sufficient to drive interferon responses.
