    Network instability dynamics drive a transient bursting period in the developing hippocampus in vivo

    Jürgen Graf, Vahid Rahmati ... Knut Kirmse
    Two-photon Ca2+ imaging and computational modeling reveal major developmental trajectories of spontaneous activity in developing CA1 and identify important roles of network bi-stability and synaptic input characteristics for hippocampal burstiness before eye opening.

    Clarifying the role of an unavailable distractor in human multiattribute choice

    Yinan Cao, Konstantinos Tsetsos
    A previously reported positive influence of a distractor alternative on decision accuracy was driven by an unintended covariation between key variables, beyond which the distractor has a modest negative influence on accuracy, possibly mirroring asymmetric multiattribute context effects.

    Normative decision rules in changing environments

    Nicholas W Barendregt, Joshua I Gold ... Zachary P Kilpatrick
    In environments that fluctuate over the course of deliberation, optimal decision strategies display novel dynamics that can explain human response behaviors better than commonly used alternatives.

    T cells modulate the microglial response to brain ischemia

    Corinne Benakis, Alba Simats ... Arthur Liesz
    Transcriptional signature and cell morphology of the stroke-associated microglia are reprogrammed by distinct T cell subpopulations.

    Postsynaptic plasticity of cholinergic synapses underlies the induction and expression of appetitive and familiarity memories in Drosophila

    Carlotta Pribbenow, Yi-chun Chen ... David Owald
    Specific memories can be stored through changes in the postsynaptic cholinergic receptor composition at Drosophila mushroom body synapses.

    Oscillations support short latency co-firing of neurons during human episodic memory formation

    Frédéric Roux, George Parish ... Simon Hanslmayr
    Synchronization of neural firing in the medial temporal lobe at fast, but not slow, theta and gamma oscillations correlates with shorter latencies of co-firing and successful memory formation.

    Human hippocampal responses to network intracranial stimulation vary with theta phase

    Sarah M Lurie, James E Kragel ... Joel L Voss
    Human hippocampal connectivity to network afferents varies continuously with the phase of the local theta oscillation, confirming a putative mechanism by which neural oscillations modulate human hippocampal function.

    Presynaptic contact and activity opposingly regulate postsynaptic dendrite outgrowth

    Emily L Heckman, Chris Q Doe
    Opposing mechanisms determine dendrite arbor size during a critical period in Drosophila.

    Whole brain correlates of individual differences in skin conductance responses during discriminative fear conditioning to social cues

    Kevin Vinberg, Jörgen Rosén ... Fredrik Ahs
    A whole brain analysis using human neuroimaging data shows neural correlates of individual differences in conditioned fear.
