    Putting perception into action with inverse optimal control for continuous psychophysics

    Dominik Straub, Constantin A Rothkopf
    A new method for analyzing continuous psychophysics experiments estimates not only perceptual uncertainty from tracking tasks but also action variability, intrinsic costs, and subjective internal models.

    Functional brain reconfiguration during sustained pain

    Jae-Joong Lee, Sungwoo Lee ... Choong-Wan Woo
    Human neuroimaging with time-evolving network analysis reveals dynamic interactions among multiple functional brain networks in response to sustained pain.

    Rabphilin 3A binds the N-peptide of SNAP-25 to promote SNARE complex assembly in exocytosis

    Tianzhi Li, Qiqi Cheng ... Cong Ma
    A new binding mode between Rabphilin 3A and SNAP-25 enables efficient SNARE complex assembly via inducing a conformation change in SNAP-25 SNARE motif.

    7-Dehydrocholesterol-derived oxysterols cause neurogenic defects in Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome

    Hideaki Tomita, Kelly M Hines ... Libin Xu
    A 7-dehydrocholesterol-derived oxysterol in SLOS was found to profoundly impact neurogenesis during cortical development by interacting with glucocorticoid receptor, which points to new therapeutic approaches for SLOS by targeting the activities of this oxysterol.

    Distinct population and single-neuron selectivity for executive and episodic processing in human dorsal posterior cingulate

    Lyndsey Aponik-Gremillion, Yvonne Y Chen ... Brett L Foster
    Invasive recordings from human dorsal posterior cingulate cortex show neural population responses occur for only executive tasks, while single neuron responses occur for specific executive or episodic cognitive tasks.

    Time encoding migrates from prefrontal cortex to dorsal striatum during learning of a self-timed response duration task

    Gabriela C Tunes, Eliezyer Fermino de Oliveira ... Marcelo Bussotti Reyes
    Electrophysiological and pharmacological data provide evidence that the medial prefrontal cortex is essential for rats to learn a timing task, becoming unnecessary later, while the dorsal striatum does not play a role initially, taking over when animals become proficient.

    Insulin sensitivity in mesolimbic pathways predicts and improves with weight loss in older dieters

    Lena J Tiedemann, Sebastian M Meyhöfer ... Stefanie Brassen
    Insulinergic neuromodulation of hedonic food processing predicts future weight management and improves with weight loss in older overweight dieters.

    Mixed synapses reconcile violations of the size principle in zebrafish spinal cord

    Evdokia Menelaou, Sandeep Kishore, David L McLean
    In the zebrafish spinal cord, mixed synapses contribute to neuronal connectivity and resting excitability, which helps explain violations of the well-known 'size principle' of recruitment.

    Conduction velocity along a key white matter tract is associated with autobiographical memory recall ability

    Ian A Clark, Siawoosh Mohammadi ... Eleanor A Maguire
    A new magnetic resonance brain imaging measure reveals that variations in people’s ability to recall their past experiences may be related to the speed at which electrical signals travel along axons in the parahippocampal cingulum bundle.

    Developmental Language Disorder: What happens in the brain?

    Faye Smith, Timothy D Griffiths
    A new imaging method reveals previously undetected structural differences that may contribute to developmental language disorder.
