    Exogenous capture accounts for fundamental differences between pro- and antisaccade performance

    Allison T Goldstein, Terrence R Stanford, Emilio Salinas
    The detection of a salient stimulus triggers a stereotypical oculomotor response, an impulse to look toward it, whose timing and strength are largely independent of behavioral significance and top-down control.

    Dopamine neuron morphology and output are differentially controlled by mTORC1 and mTORC2

    Polina Kosillo, Kamran M Ahmed ... Helen S Bateup
    Chronic inhibition of mTORC1 signaling strongly affects the morphology, physiology and output of dopamine neurons leading to impaired dopaminergic function in mice.

    β2-subunit alternative splicing stabilizes Cav2.3 Ca2+ channel activity during continuous midbrain dopamine neuron-like activity

    Anita Siller, Nadja T Hofer ... Jörg Striessnig
    Regulation of Cav2.3 Ca2+ channels by membrane-bound β2 subunit splice variants permits long-lasting channel activity even during prolonged and continuous activity in dopamine neurons, with implications for Parkinson's disease pathophysiology.

    The geometry of robustness in spiking neural networks

    Nuno Calaim, Florian A Dehmelt ... Christian K Machens
    Spiking neural networks become robust to various perturbations of their parameters if their voltages are confined to a lower-dimensional subspace, and both dynamics and robustness can be visualised in this voltage subspace.

    A viral toolbox for conditional and transneuronal gene expression in zebrafish

    Chie Satou, Rachael L Neve ... Rainer W Friedrich
    Novel procedures for viral gene transfer in zebrafish enable visualization and manipulation of specific neurons.

    A single exposure to altered auditory feedback causes observable sensorimotor adaptation in speech

    Lana Hantzsch, Benjamin Parrell, Caroline A Niziolek
    Hearing a single auditory error while speaking causes an adaptive change that corrects for that error the next time we say a word, providing empirical support for current models of speech sensorimotor adaptation and aligning speech with other motor domains.

    Non-uniform distribution of dendritic nonlinearities differentially engages thalamostriatal and corticostriatal inputs onto cholinergic interneurons

    Osnat Oz, Lior Matityahu ... Joshua A Goldberg
    The membrane nonlinearities of the dendritic arbor of striatal cholinergic interneurons conspire with the spatial distribution of its excitatory inputs to preferentially boost thalamic inputs.

    The E3 ligase Thin controls homeostatic plasticity through neurotransmitter release repression

    Martin Baccino-Calace, Katharina Schmidt, Martin Müller
    An electrophysiology-based genetic screen in Drosophila identified a role for the E3 ligase Thin in presynaptic homeostatic plasticity.

    Spatially bivariate EEG-neurofeedback can manipulate interhemispheric inhibition

    Masaaki Hayashi, Kohei Okuyama ... Junichi Ushiba
    Interhemispheric inhibition can be manipulated by directly and bidirectionally modulating the bilateral sensorimotor excitabilities in a spatially bivariate Brain-Computer Interface-based neurofeedback paradigm.

    Selfee, self-supervised features extraction of animal behaviors

    Yinjun Jia, Shuaishuai Li ... Wei Zhang
    Selfee, a self-supervised learning approach, is designed to extract comprehensive and discriminative features directly from raw videos of animal behaviors which can be used for in-depth analysis.
