    Mutant huntingtin enhances activation of dendritic Kv4 K+ channels in striatal spiny projection neurons

    Luis Carrillo-Reid, Michelle Day ... D James Surmeier
    In mouse models of Huntington's disease, striatal spiny projection neurons up-regulate dendritic potassium channels, which impairs their normal function, but a zinc finger gene therapy can reverse this deficit.

    A thalamocortical circuit for updating action-outcome associations

    Virginie Fresno, Shauna L Parkes ... Mathieu Wolff
    Disconnection of the orbitofrontal cortex from the submedius nucleus but not the mediodorsal thalamus prevented rats to respond adaptively following action-outcome reversal, showing differential involvement of these thalamocortical circuits.

    Neural activity in a hippocampus-like region of the teleost pallium is associated with active sensing and navigation

    Haleh Fotowat, Candice Lee ... Len Maler
    Sparse firing in a hippocampus-like structure of the teleost telencephalon is linked to spatial navigation and active sensing.

    A virtual burrow assay for head–fixed mice measures habituation, discrimination, exploration and avoidance without training

    Andrew JP Fink, Richard Axel, Carl E Schoonover
    A naturalistic assay for head-fixed mice permits observation of a diverse set of innate and learned behaviors without requiring any training.

    Selective targeting of unipolar brush cell subtypes by cerebellar mossy fibers

    Timothy S Balmer, Laurence O Trussell
    Distinct inputs to the cerebellum make contact on specific subtypes of target neurons.

    Associations between sounds and actions in early auditory cortex of nonhuman primates

    Ying Huang, Peter Heil, Michael Brosch
    Early auditory cortex of nonhuman primates represents associations between sounds and actions, in both spiking activity and local field potentials.

    Reward prediction error does not explain movement selectivity in DMS-projecting dopamine neurons

    Rachel S Lee, Marcelo G Mattar ... Nathaniel D Daw
    Despite the fundamental relationship between movement and value, they are represented in a separable manner in dopamine neurons.

    Stiffness and tension gradients of the hair cell’s tip-link complex in the mammalian cochlea

    Mélanie Tobin, Atitheb Chaiyasitdhi ... Pascal Martin
    The tip-link complex of the hair cell is mechanically tuned along the tonotopic axis of the cochlea.
