    EZ Clear for simple, rapid, and robust mouse whole organ clearing

    Chih-Wei Hsu, Juan Cerda III ... Joshua D Wythe
    With three simple steps in 48 hr, EZ Clear effectively renders adult mouse organs optically transparent while simultaneously preserving signal from synthetic and endogenous fluorescent reporters and is compatible with wholemount immunostaining and cryosectioning followed by histological or immunofluorescent staining.

    Frequency-specific neural signatures of perceptual content and perceptual stability

    Richard Hardstone, Matthew W Flounders ... Biyu J He
    While perceptual content is encoded in non-oscillatory activity in the slow cortical potential (<5 Hz) range, perceptual stability is predominantly influenced by the amplitude fluctuations of alpha (~10 Hz) and beta (~20 Hz) brain oscillations.

    A novel rhesus macaque model of Huntington’s disease recapitulates key neuropathological changes along with motor and cognitive decline

    Alison R Weiss, William A Liguore ... Jodi L McBride
    mHTT delivery in key cortical and subcortical brain regions leads to hallmark mHTT aggregate formation, gray and white matter degenerative changes, along with motor and cognitive decline in a new macaque model of Huntington's disease.

    A dopamine-gated learning circuit underpins reproductive state-dependent odor preference in Drosophila females

    Ariane C Boehm, Anja B Friedrich ... Ilona C Grunwald Kadow
    Behavioral and in vivo imaging analysis in the fly suggests that mating-related sensory experience regulates female odor perception and expression of choice behavior through a dopamine-gated learning circuit.

    A partially nested cortical hierarchy of neural states underlies event segmentation in the human brain

    Linda Geerligs, Dora Gözükara ... Umut Güçlü
    The ongoing stream of information that comes in through our senses is segmented into distinct neural states at each level of the cortical hierarchy, which underpins our experience of distinct events.

    The Neurodata Without Borders ecosystem for neurophysiological data science

    Oliver Rübel, Andrew Tritt ... Kristofer E Bouchard
    The NWB data language enables reproduction, interchange, and reuse of diverse neurophysiology data, and the design principles of NWB are generally applicable to enhance discovery across biology through data FAIRness.

    Sociosexual behavior requires both activating and repressive roles of Tfap2e/AP-2ε in vomeronasal sensory neurons

    Jennifer M Lin, Tyler A Mitchell ... Paolo Emanuele Forni
    In vivo genetic experiments show that aberrant expression of a transcription factor can compromise the functionality of neurons which is important to better understand the potential mechanisms underlying neuropathologies.

    Learning of probabilistic punishment as a model of anxiety produces changes in action but not punisher encoding in the dmPFC and VTA

    David S Jacobs, Madeleine C Allen ... Bita Moghaddam
    A novel approach to studying anxiety reveals that learned anxiety and diazepam treatment have unique roles on prefrontal cortex and ventral tegmental area activity.

    Repressor element 1-silencing transcription factor deficiency yields profound hearing loss through Kv7.4 channel upsurge in auditory neurons and hair cells

    Haiwei Zhang, Hongchen Li ... Ping Lv
    In the cochlea, repressor element 1-silencing transcription factor (REST) regulates the expression levels of Kv7.4 and alterations of REST functions result in progressive hearing loss.

    Shared mechanisms of auditory and non-auditory vocal learning in the songbird brain

    James N McGregor, Abigail L Grassler ... Samuel J Sober
    A novel, non-auditory learning paradigm reveals that songbirds can modify their vocal output based on somatosensory signals and that a common set of brain pathways underlies both this form of vocal learning and auditory-guided vocal learning.
