A new machine learning method makes it possible to efficiently identify the parameters of cognitive models using Bayesian inference, even when only model simulations are available.

Precisely tracking the anatomical sources of neural computations infers functional directed connectivity between hippocampal memory neurons and cortical sensory neurons, it reveals information flowing from cortex to hippocampus during encoding but the reverse direction during maintenance.

A curated resource to study the brain RNA expression patterns of the genes that regulate palmitoylation is presented, alongside a detailed exploration of how these patterns can inform future research.

The most influential clocks within the Drosophila circadian clock neuron network form the fewest synapses within the network, and neurons that do not themselves contain molecular clocks mediate connections between those that do, suggesting a key role in timekeeping.

A method for the genetic manipulation of enteroendocrine cells reveals how different intestinal cell types control food intake and drive post-ingestive learning.

Pharmacological and genetic studies in the mouse reveal how dopamine D2 receptors on cholinergic interneurons regulate cue-evoked changes in the levels of striatal acetylcholine and dopamine during behavior.

HCAR1 knockout mice are unable to initiate brain tissue repair after a hypoxic-ischemic injury.

The first postnatal week ends with the development of perisomatic innervation and with an abrupt switch in the representation of self-motion in the region CA1 of the mouse hippocampus.

A technology for measuring release of dopamine simultaneously from hundreds of release sites at the spatial resolution of a synapse is provided.

Decoding of neural outcome and response representations allows dissecting goal-directed and habitual contributions to behaviour and reveals how acute stress biases the instrumental control of behaviour.
