    Behavioral control by depolarized and hyperpolarized states of an integrating neuron

    Aylesse Sordillo, Cornelia I Bargmann
    Precise genetic manipulations demonstrate that a single-neuron class dynamically controls multiple behaviors by engaging different synapses during high- and low-activity states.

    Neuronal sequences during theta rely on behavior-dependent spatial maps

    Eloy Parra-Barrero, Kamran Diba, Sen Cheng
    A computational framework and analysis of rodent CA1 data reveals that theta oscillations sequentially sweep through the past, present, and future at a spatial scale that varies with the characteristic speed of the animal.

    Developmental emergence of two-stage nonlinear synaptic integration in cerebellar interneurons

    Celia Biane, Florian Rückerl ... Laurence Cathala
    Patch-clamp electrophysiology, fluorescence imaging, and computational modeling were used to identify cellular mechanisms underlying maturation of dendritic computations in interneurons.

    Reporting and misreporting of sex differences in the biological sciences

    Yesenia Garcia-Sifuentes, Donna L Maney
    A review of studies in the life sciences shows that inappropriate statistical approaches may distort conclusions on sex differences.

    Phase response analyses support a relaxation oscillator model of locomotor rhythm generation in Caenorhabditis elegans

    Hongfei Ji, Anthony D Fouad ... Christopher Fang-Yen
    Behavioral, optogenetic, and computational modeling analyses show that the roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans uses a relaxation oscillation mechanism to generate rhythmic locomotor patterns.

    Fast and accurate annotation of acoustic signals with deep neural networks

    Elsa Steinfath, Adrian Palacios-Muñoz ... Jan Clemens
    DAS is a universal tool for segmenting and identifying acoustic signals in single and multi channel recordings robustly, reliably, and at low latency.

    All-trans retinoic acid induces synaptopodin-dependent metaplasticity in mouse dentate granule cells

    Maximilian Lenz, Amelie Eichler ... Andreas Vlachos
    All-trans retinoic acid increases the number of excitatory synapses in the dorsal hippocampus of mice and improves the ability of neurons to express synaptopodin-dependent synaptic plasticity.

    Neuronal activity in dorsal anterior cingulate cortex during economic choices under variable action costs

    Xinying Cai, Camillo Padoa-Schioppa
    In economic choices under variable action costs, in contrast to the orbitofrontal cortex, dorsal anterior cingulate cortex represents not pre-decision but post-decision variables, thus might inform subsequent actions based on reward and effort associated with the choice outcomes.
