    Precise regulation of the guidance receptor DMA-1 by KPC-1/Furin instructs dendritic branching decisions

    Xintong Dong, Hui Chiu ... Kang Shen
    The enzyme KPC-1/Furin down-regulates the DMA-1 receptor in neurons, allowing growing dendrites to migrate away from intermediate targets.

    The hierarchical organization of the lateral prefrontal cortex

    Derek Evan Nee, Mark D'Esposito
    Areas in the middle of the lateral prefrontal cortex select behaviors by taking into account both current and future needs.

    Quantitative neuroanatomy for connectomics in Drosophila

    Casey M Schneider-Mizell, Stephan Gerhard ... Albert Cardona
    A new method that uses the cellular neuroanatomy of neuronal connectivity to quickly and robustly reconstruct neuronal circuits in Drosophila from large electron microscopy volumes.

    Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) inhibits cortical dendrites

    Sean C Murphy, Lucy M Palmer ... Matthew E Larkum
    Studying the activity of cortical neurons in rats reveals the subcellular effects of transcranial magnetic stimulation, which is used for the non-invasive treatment of a variety of brain disorders.

    Cascade of neural processing orchestrates cognitive control in human frontal cortex

    Hanlin Tang, Hsiang-Yu Yu ... Gabriel Kreiman
    A dynamic and hierarchical sequence of steps in human frontal cortex orchestrates cognitive control.

    Resolving rates of mutation in the brain using single-neuron genomics

    Gilad D Evrony, Eunjung Lee ... Christopher A Walsh
    The reanalysis of data from a recent study that claimed retrotransposon mutations are ubiquitous in the human brain outlines a general framework for the design and analysis of single-cell genomics studies.

    Endocannabinoid dynamics gate spike-timing dependent depression and potentiation

    Yihui Cui, Ilya Prokin ... Hugues Berry
    The molecular mechanisms beyond the bidirectionality (tTLP and tLTD) of endocanabinoid spike-timing dependent synaptic plasticity have been identified.
    1. Neuroscience

    Stereotyped spatial patterns of functional synaptic connectivity in the cerebellar cortex

    Antoine M Valera, Francesca Binda ... Philippe Isope
    Functional synaptic organization in the cerebellar cortex is stereotyped and associates distant modules through parallel fibers.

    Sleep-active neuron specification and sleep induction require FLP-11 neuropeptides to systemically induce sleep

    Michal Turek, Judith Besseling ... Henrik Bringmann
    The mechanisms of specification and sleep induction by the single sleep-active neuron are revealed in C. elegans.

    Midbrain dopamine neurons compute inferred and cached value prediction errors in a common framework

    Brian F Sadacca, Joshua L Jones, Geoffrey Schoenbaum
    Midbrain dopamine neurons in rats signal discrepancies between predicted and actual rewards, regardless of whether the rewards are predicted on the basis of experience or inference.
