    Differential dopaminergic modulation of spontaneous cortico–subthalamic activity in Parkinson’s disease

    Abhinav Sharma, Diego Vidaurre ... Esther Florin
    Dopaminergic medication has differential effects on the discovered electrophysiological networks, which could be used to develop new electrical and pharmacological interventions in Parkinson’s disease.

    Short and long sleeping mutants reveal links between sleep and macroautophagy

    Joseph L Bedont, Hirofumi Toda ... Amita Sehgal
    Unbiased and targeted genetic approaches reveal a link between sleep and autophagy that could be relevant for sleep function, and for understanding pathological consequences of chronic sleep loss.

    Punishment insensitivity in humans is due to failures in instrumental contingency learning

    Philip Jean-Richard-dit-Bressel, Jessica C Lee ... Gavan P McNally
    Punishment insensitive individuals are not more impulsive or anxious, they dislike aversive outcomes and predictors of these outcomes, but are simply less likely to learn their control over them.

    Synaptic learning rules for sequence learning

    Eric Torsten Reifenstein, Ikhwan Bin Khalid, Richard Kempter
    Through mathematical analysis and computer simulations, the neuronal underpinnings of feasible models of sequence learning are delineated.

    Clustered functional domains for curves and corners in cortical area V4

    Rundong Jiang, Ian Max Andolina ... Shiming Tang
    Curves and corners are separately encoded by neurons clustered into functional domains in macaque V4.

    Cellular, circuit and transcriptional framework for modulation of itch in the central amygdala

    Vijay K Samineni, Jose G Grajales-Reyes ... Robert W Gereau
    Circuit and transcriptional analysis shows that genetically defined central amygdala neurons and their projections to the ventral periaqueductal gray mediate behavioral and affective responses to pruritus.

    High-resolution imaging of skin deformation shows that afferents from human fingertips signal slip onset

    Benoit P Delhaye, Ewa Jarocka ... Philippe Lefèvre
    Synchronous recording of skin deformations at the contact with a transparent surface and of tactile afferents from the fingertip reveals that afferents signal incipient slip.

    Somatostatin-expressing parafacial neurons are CO2/H+ sensitive and regulate baseline breathing

    Colin M Cleary, Brenda M Milla ... Daniel K Mulkey
    Cellular and chemogenetic approaches identify a novel mode of chemotransduction involving regulation of basal breathing by CO2/H+-dependent disinhibition.

    Ir56d-dependent fatty acid responses in Drosophila uncover taste discrimination between different classes of fatty acids

    Elizabeth B Brown, Kreesha D Shah ... Alex C Keene
    The taste system of fruit flies is activated by broad classes of fatty acids and can discriminate between different classes, revealing previously underappreciated complexity in the coding of tastants.

    The causal role of auditory cortex in auditory working memory

    Liping Yu, Jiawei Hu ... Jinghong Xu
    Auditory cortex is essential for information encoding and maintenance in auditory working memory, especially during the early delay period.
