Representations from models that explicitly encode semantic roles (who did what to whom) align better with activity in language regions of the brain than representations from transformers do.

Comprehensive ultrastructural reconstruction of the Drosophila larval pharyngeal sensory system reveals the organization and diversity of its sensory structures and enables future investigations into sensory processing, feeding decisions, and behavior.

Showing that the structural connectivity between the zona incerta and cortex is organized along a rostral–caudal axis.

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.
