    Temporal analysis of enhancers during mouse cerebellar development reveals dynamic and novel regulatory functions

    Miguel Ramirez, Yuliya Badayeva ... Daniel Goldowitz
    An analysis of enhancer activity during mouse cerebellar development provides an invaluable resource for studying gene expression regulation by enhancers in the developing cerebellum and delivers a rich dataset of novel gene-enhancer associations providing a basis for future in-depth studies.

    Science Forum: How failure to falsify in high-volume science contributes to the replication crisis

    Sarah M Rajtmajer, Timothy M Errington, Frank G Hillary
    An increased emphasis on falsification – the direct testing of strong hypotheses – will lead to faster progress in science by allowing well-specified hypotheses to be eliminated.

    BehaviorDEPOT is a simple, flexible tool for automated behavioral detection based on markerless pose tracking

    Christopher J Gabriel, Zachary Zeidler ... Laura A DeNardo
    BehaviorDEPOT is a general purpose behavior analysis software that will meet the needs of thousands of behavioral neuroscientists who need accurate, flexible open-source software to analyze naturalistic behaviors and align then with neural data.

    Rate and oscillatory switching dynamics of a multilayer visual microcircuit model

    Gerald Hahn, Arvind Kumar ... Gustavo Deco
    A computer model of the mouse visual cortex shows that local brain circuits are organized as switches whose states are coded as neuronal oscillations with different frequencies.

    Prenatal development of neonatal vocalizations

    Darshana Z Narayanan, Daniel Y Takahashi ... Asif A Ghazanfar
    Vocal development in marmoset monkeys begins in utero.

    Expansion and contraction of resource allocation in sensory bottlenecks

    Laura R Edmondson, Alejandro Jiménez Rodríguez, Hannes P Saal
    A simple efficient coding model predicts complex trade-offs in resource allocation for sensory inputs with heterogeneous receptor densities and activation levels.

    Heritability and cross-species comparisons of human cortical functional organization asymmetry

    Bin Wan, Şeyma Bayrak ... Sofie L Valk
    Human brain suggests an asymmetric organization along a functional cortical axis describing a hierarchical functional trajectory from perceptual/action to abstract cognition, which is heritable and comparable with macaque brain, suggesting (phylo)genetic conservation and adaptation.

    Inhibition of itch by neurokinin 1 receptor (Tacr1) -expressing ON cells in the rostral ventromedial medulla in mice

    Taylor Follansbee, Dan Domocos ... Earl Carstens
    Activation of Tacr1-expressing neurons including ON cells in the rostral ventromedial medulla inhibits acute and chronic itch-related behavior.

    Understanding implicit sensorimotor adaptation as a process of proprioceptive re-alignment

    Jonathan S Tsay, Hyosub Kim ... Richard B Ivry
    A new computational model reveals how implicit sensorimotor adaptation is elicited to re-align one's felt and desired hand position.

    TRPV1 drugs alter core body temperature via central projections of primary afferent sensory neurons

    Wendy Wing Sze Yue, Lin Yuan ... David Julius
    Capsaicin and other vanilloid receptor ligands alter core body temperature by perturbing central thermoregulatory pathways through activation/inhibition of TRPV1 receptors on peripheral sensory nerve fibers.
