    Age-dependent dormant resident progenitors are stimulated by injury to regenerate Purkinje neurons

    N Sumru Bayin, Alexandre Wojcinski ... Alexandra L Joyner
    Injury at birth induces immature neurons to divide and regenerate cerebellar Purkinje cells in a time-dependent manner.

    A subcortical circuit linking the cerebellum to the basal ganglia engaged in vocal learning

    Ludivine Pidoux, Pascale Le Blanc ... Arthur Leblois
    The cerebellum sends a functional input to the song-related basal ganglia via the thalamus in songbirds that can modify premotor activity, and it participates to song learning in juvenile birds.

    Conservation of preparatory neural events in monkey motor cortex regardless of how movement is initiated

    Antonio H Lara, Gamaleldin F Elsayed ... Mark M Churchland
    Voluntary movements are preceded by a temporally flexible preparatory neural process that is present regardless of whether movement is initiated rapidly or thoughtfully.

    The adipocyte hormone leptin sets the emergence of hippocampal inhibition in mice

    Camille Dumon, Diabe Diabira ... Jean-Luc Gaiarsa
    Maternal obesity and excess of the adipocyte hormone leptin delays the emergence of synaptic inhibition in the developing brain mice.

    A resource-rational theory of set size effects in human visual working memory

    Ronald van den Berg, Wei Ji Ma
    Set size effects in visual working memory are explained as a resource-rational trade-off between an error-based behavioral cost and a neural encoding cost.

    Sensory cortex is optimized for prediction of future input

    Yosef Singer, Yayoi Teramoto ... Nicol S Harper
    Prediction of future input explains diverse neural tuning properties in sensory cortex.

    Model-based fMRI reveals dissimilarity processes underlying base rate neglect

    Sean R O'Bryan, Darrell A Worthy ... Tyler Davis
    Model-based imaging shows that the rostrolateral prefrontal cortex supports dissimilarity-based heuristics that people may use when they are confronted with ambiguous scenarios.

    Chemotaxis: Cider vinegar rules

    Ronald L Calabrese
    Experiments in wind tunnels have shed light on the rules that govern how flies respond when they detect odors.

    Cerebellar implementation of movement sequences through feedback

    Andrei Khilkevich, Juan Zambrano ... Michael Dean Mauk
    The cerebellum can learn a sequence of responses by using a feedback signal from the previous movement to learn the next one.
