Recording the spiking activity of muscle fibers at high resolution in awake, behaving mice, reveals that locomotor speed is driven by highly variable subsets of motor units.

An odorant is encoded in the periphery as independent inputs of attractive and repulsive valence, which are then integrated and balanced to drive overall chemotactic behavior.

Stable and dynamic prelimbic neurons preserve threat-generalization gradients despite ensemble turnover, supporting enduring representations of stimulus significance rather than freezing.

Recently discovered sequence representations in prefrontal cortex can be combined with the ubiquitous principle of neural attractor dynamics to support planning in complex environments.
Violations of strong memory-based predictions trigger a cascade of changes in cognitive control, attention, and arousal, with differential impacts on the encoding of unexpected information into memory.
Human forebrain organoids reveal that amyloid-driven microglia recruit killer T cells via CCL5, forming a self-amplifying neuroinflammatory loop targetable by CCR5 or CXCR3 blockade.
In mammalian neocortex, opposing Krüppel-like factor (KLF) transcription factors first activate and then repress a genetic program related to axon outgrowth, potentially contributing to loss of cortical axon outgrowth in the adult.
