    Removal of developmentally regulated microexons has a minimal impact on larval zebrafish brain morphology and function

    Caleb CS Calhoun, Mary ES Capps ... Summer B Thyme
    Sensitive brain activity mapping and behavioral profiling reveal most microexons are dispensable for early brain development but highlight a small subset with intriguing neural phenotypes for future study.

    1. Neuroscience

    Local, calcium- and reward-based synaptic learning rule that enhances dendritic nonlinearities can solve the nonlinear feature binding problem

    Zahra Khodadadi, Daniel Trpevski ... Jeanette Hellgren Kotaleski
    Biophysically detailed modeling predicts that a biologically plausible synaptic plasticity rule, gated by calcium and dopamine, enables single neurons to solve nonlinear binding tasks by exploiting dendritic nonlinearities.

    Elevated DNA damage without signs of aging in the short-sleeping Mexican cavefish

    Evan Lloyd, Fanning Xia ... Alex C Keene
    Cavefish exhibit resilience to chronic sleep loss and tolerate elevated DNA damage and reduced DNA repair responses without compromising healthspan or longevity.
    1. Neuroscience

    Relationship between cognitive abilities and mental health as represented by cognitive abilities at the neural and genetic levels of analysis

    Yue Wang, Richard Anney, Narun Pat
    Multimodal neuroimaging explained 66% of the cognitive–mental health link in children, outperforming polygenic scores (21%), and accounted for 58% of the environmental contribution to this relationship.

    Modulation of aperiodic EEG activity provides sensitive index of cognitive state changes during working memory task

    Tisa Frelih, Andraž Matkovič ... Grega Repovš
    A novel analysis reveals distinct periodic and aperiodic EEG activity during working memory, challenging oscillatory-centric views while establishing aperiodic activity as a more sensitive marker of cognitive state.
    1. Neuroscience

    Animacy semantic network supports causal inferences about illness

    Miriam Hauptman, Marina Bedny
    Making causal inferences about illness, compared to making causal inferences about mechanical breakdown and reading causally unconnected sentences, activates a semantic brain network implicated in the conceptual representation of animate entities (e.g. people, animals).
    1. Neuroscience

    The influence of nucleus accumbens shell D1 and D2 neurons on outcome-specific Pavlovian instrumental transfer

    Octavia Soegyono, Elise Pepin ... Vincent Laurent
    Cell-specific manipulations uncover novel mechanisms in the ventral striatum that mediate the influence of environmental stimuli on action selection.
