    Coordinated multiplexing of information about separate objects in visual cortex

    Na Young Jun, Douglas A Ruff ... Jennifer M Groh
    Two distinct objects evoke fluctuating activity in visual cortex in a manner that could preserve information about both items.

    Binary and analog variation of synapses between cortical pyramidal neurons

    Sven Dorkenwald, Nicholas L Turner ... H Sebastian Seung
    Sizes of synapses between layer 2/3 pyramidal cells in mouse primary visual cortex are well modeled by the sum of a binary variable and an analog variable drawn from a log-normal distribution.

    Chronic Ca2+ imaging of cortical neurons with long-term expression of GCaMP-X

    Jinli Geng, Yingjun Tang ... Xiaodong Liu
    Focusing on calcium oscillations in relation to neuronal morphology both in vitro and in vivo, rationally designed GCaMP-X provides a simple solution to neuronal toxicity of conventional GCaMP in imaging applications involving prolonged and/or strong expression of calcium probes.

    Dorsal striatum coding for the timely execution of action sequences

    Maria Cecilia Martinez, Camila Lidia Zold ... Mariano Andrés Belluscio
    In adolescent rats, whose actions are more impulsive, neuronal striatal activity that precedes self-initiated action sequences has a steeper modulation by waiting time compared to the modulation found in adults.

    Self-configuring feedback loops for sensorimotor control

    Sergio Oscar Verduzco-Flores, Erik De Schutter
    Learning to reach in the sensorimotor loop, and the required neural dynamics, can be potentially explained by simple principles.

    Fast rule switching and slow rule updating in a perceptual categorization task

    Flora Bouchacourt, Sina Tafazoli ... Nathaniel D Daw
    Flexible cognition relies on a combination of fast inferential learning and slow incremental learning.

    Reevaluation of Piezo1 as a gut RNA sensor

    Alec R Nickolls, Gabrielle S O'Brien ... Alexander T Chesler
    Piezo1 ion channels are not modulated by RNA ligands, contrary to previous findings.

    Robust group- but limited individual-level (longitudinal) reliability and insights into cross-phases response prediction of conditioned fear

    Maren Klingelhöfer-Jens, Mana R Ehlers ... Tina B Lonsdorf
    Reliability and predictability analyses beyond standard measures provide empirically based guidance regarding the design of fear conditioning tasks to assess individual differences and group-level inferences cross-sectionally and longitudinally.

    Phox2b mutation mediated by Atoh1 expression impaired respiratory rhythm and ventilatory responses to hypoxia and hypercapnia

    Caroline B Ferreira, Talita M Silva ... Thiago S Moreira
    New evidence for the impaired breathing activity is related to non-polyalanine repeat expansion mutations form of congenital central hypoventilation syndrome neuropathology.

    Cortex-wide response mode of VIP-expressing inhibitory neurons by reward and punishment

    Zoltán Szadai, Hyun-Jae Pi ... Balázs Rózsa
    VIP-expressing cortical interneurons represent organism-level information about reward and punishment for local microcircuits to regulate local processing and plasticity.
