    Magnetic stimulation allows focal activation of the mouse cochlea

    Jae-Ik Lee, Richard Seist ... Shelley Fried
    Coil-based CIs have the potential to enhance the quality of restored hearing for people with severe to profound hearing loss.

    Timely coupling of sleep spindles and slow waves linked to early amyloid-β burden and predicts memory decline

    Daphne Chylinski, Maxime Van Egroo ... Gilles Vandewalle
    Altered coupling of different brain waves during sleep is associated with worse brain features related to Alzheimer’s disease processes and cognitive performance, suggesting that sleep brain waves coupling may contribute to poorer brain and cognitive trajectories in ageing.

    Alone, in the dark: The extraordinary neuroethology of the solitary blind mole rat

    Yael Kashash, Grace Smarsh ... Tali Kimchi
    A new ethologically relevant model for investigating the neurobiology of solitary, asocial behavior in the blind mole rat.

    Modified viral-genetic mapping reveals local and global connectivity relationships of ventral tegmental area dopamine cells

    Kevin Beier
    A modified viral strategy reveals that ventral tegmental area dopamine cells receive substantial inputs from local sources, including distributed GABAergic and serotonergic inputs from the midbrain as well as extensive inputs from other midbrain dopamine cells.

    Conditional and unconditional components of aversively motivated freezing, flight and darting in mice

    Jeremy M Trott, Ann N Hoffman ... Michael S Fanselow
    When conducting fear conditioning in mice, cue-elicited activity bursts are primarily a result of nonassociative processes, and freezing behavior remains the best index for associative learning.

    A cellular and molecular analysis of SoxB-driven neurogenesis in a cnidarian

    Eleni Chrysostomou, Hakima Flici ... Uri Frank
    SoxB genes are sequentially expressed in cnidarian neurogenesis.

    Drosophila gustatory projections are segregated by taste modality and connectivity

    Stefanie Engert, Gabriella R Sterne ... Kristin Scott
    Anatomical and synaptic reconstructions of gustatory axons from the adult Drosophila labellum reveal different classes of gustatory neurons recognizing different taste modalities.

    Aberrant causal inference and presence of a compensatory mechanism in autism spectrum disorder

    Jean-Paul Noel, Sabyasachi Shivkumar ... Dora E Angelaki
    Individuals within the autism spectrum disorder implicitly outweigh integration (rather than segregating) when performing causal inference and have developed an explicit compensatory mechanism as reflected in choice biases.

    Dnmt3a knockout in excitatory neurons impairs postnatal synapse maturation and increases the repressive histone modification H3K27me3

    Junhao Li, Antonio Pinto-Duarte ... M Margarita Behrens
    Loss of Dnmt3a in excitatory neurons disrupts synaptic morphology and behavior, and triggers the expansion of H3K27me3 binding, suggestive of increased polycomb repression.

    Proximal CA1 20–40 Hz power dynamics reflect trial-specific information processing supporting nonspatial sequence memory

    Sandra Gattas, Gabriel A Elias ... Norbert J Fortin
    The hippocampal CA1 20–40 Hz rhythm is associated with nonspatial sequence memory processing and may contribute to the role of the hippocampus in processing temporal relationships among events.
