    A long non-coding RNA is required for targeting centromeric protein A to the human centromere

    Delphine Quénet, Yamini Dalal
    A non-coding RNA-based targeting mechanism could potentially epigenetically maintain specialized chromatin structures, such as the centromere, in vivo.

    Lhx1 maintains synchrony among circadian oscillator neurons of the SCN

    Megumi Hatori, Shubhroz Gill ... Satchidananda Panda
    A transcription factor called Lhx1 coordinates the activity of the brain's master circadian clock, the suprachiasmatic nucleus, by controlling communication between its constituent cells.

    Shared mushroom body circuits underlie visual and olfactory memories in Drosophila

    Katrin Vogt, Christopher Schnaitmann ... Hiromu Tanimoto
    One memory center in the fly brain processes distinct appetitive and aversive associative memories of olfactory and visual cues using shared local circuits.

    A suppression hierarchy among competing motor programs drives sequential grooming in Drosophila

    Andrew M Seeds, Primoz Ravbar ... Julie H Simpson
    Gaining genetic control over neural modules that drive the grooming of each Drosophila body part reveals how mechanisms for selecting among competing behavioral choices are used to generate sequences of actions.

    Orbitofrontal neurons acquire responses to ‘valueless’ Pavlovian cues during unblocking

    Michael A McDannald, Guillem R Esber ... Geoffrey Schoenbaum
    Orbitofrontal cortex neurons fire in response to cues with no value independent of what can be inferred through features of the predicted outcome.

    Adult-born granule cells mature through two functionally distinct states

    János Brunner, Máté Neubrandt ... János Szabadics
    3-10 weeks old adult-born granule cells provide two temporally overlapping but functionally distinct neuronal cell populations by being sensitive to distinct aspects of their inputs.

    Human premotor areas parse sequences into their spatial and temporal features

    Katja Kornysheva, Jörn Diedrichsen
    Neuroimaging provides novel insights into how the motor system represents sequences of actions by automatically separating their spatial and temporal features for flexible skill production.
