Two lateral striatal subregions integrate the acquisition of stimulus-based decision-making in spatiotemporally and functionally different manners, challenging the prior model through a dominance change from the associative to sensorimotor subregions.

The fine-tuning of mutual inhibition and disinhibition of sleep-regulating neurons and also the memory consolidation that occurs during NREM sleep are controlled by oscillations in serotonin levels.
Foveal sensitivity to the features of an imminent saccade target increases with the target’s conspicuity, supporting foveal prediction as a viable mechanism for maintaining visual continuity in high-contrast, naturalistic environments.

Leucokinin neurons integrate sweet and bitter taste inputs with starvation signals to regulate feeding initiation, balancing nutrient intake against the risk of toxin ingestion.
Humans estimate different forms of uncertainty during learning, but do so imprecisely, leading to the misattribution of random fluctuations as fundamental shifts.
