    Learning place cells and remapping by decoding the cognitive map

    Markus Borud Pettersen, Vemund Schøyen ... Mikkel E Lepperød
    Border cells are sufficient to generate place cells and remapping during path integration in artificial neural networks, challenging the role of grid cells for spatial navigation.

    A SMARTTR workflow for multi-ensemble atlas mapping and brain-wide network analysis

    Michelle Jin, Simon O Ogundare ... Christine Ann Denny
    A new scalable workflow for analyzing multiple ensemble datasets incorporates SMARTTR, an R package supporting network analysis, visualization, and the import of external datasets.

    Neocortical layer-5 tLTD relies on non-ionotropic presynaptic NMDA receptor signaling

    Aurore Thomazeau, Sabine Rannio ... Per Jesper Sjöström
    Neocortical timing-dependent LTD relies on non-ionotropic presynaptic NMDA receptor signaling via JNK2, challenging the textbook view that NMDA receptors are ionotropic coincidence detectors in Hebbian plasticity.

    Cingulate cortex shapes early postnatal development of social vocalizations

    Gurueswar Nagarajan, Denis Matrov ... Yogita Chudasama
    The normal development of social vocal behavior depends on the anterior cingulate cortex and its interaction with the vocal network during early life.

    No effect of additional education on long-term brain structure, a preregistered natural experiment in thousands of individuals

    Nicholas Judd, Rogier Kievit
    There is no discernible effect of an additional year of education from a policy change on long-term structural neuroimaging measures in a large aging sample (UK Biobank).

    Cell type-specific contributions to a persistent aggressive internal state in female Drosophila

    Hui Chiu, Alice A Robie ... Catherine E Schretter
    While persistent aggressive states in females are promoted by select cell types with recurrent connections (aIPg, pC1d+e), additional data and models are needed to explain the maintenance of these states.

    Population-level morphological analysis of paired CO2- and odor-sensing olfactory neurons in D. melanogaster via volume electron microscopy

    Jonathan Choy, Shadi Charara ... Chih-Ying Su
    Homotypic olfactory receptor neurons in Drosophila, including CO2-sensing neurons with distinctive sheet-like dendrites, exhibit unexpected morphological diversity that may underlie functional adaptability.

    Rapid and inducible mislocalization of endogenous TDP43 in a novel human model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

    Johanna Ganssauge, Sophie Hawkins ... Akshay Bhinge
    A novel human iPSC-derived model induces mislocalization of endogenous TDP-43 without mutations or stress, recapitulating key ALS features including deficits in neuronal loss and morphology, splicing errors, and microRNA dysregulation.
