By providing new ways to map cortico-subcortical connectivity patterns, the proposed cross-species tractography approaches directly allow novel comparative studies between the human and macaque brain and enable subsequent explorations of brain-behaviour/disease symptom associations across individuals.

The demonstration of effort discounting-like behavior in a lower invertebrate sets a new phylogenetic boundary on discounting behavior.

Purkinje cell subpopulations have varying vulnerability to age-related neurodegeneration, creating a striped pattern of cell loss that reflects the developmental, anatomical, and functional organization of the cerebellum.

A pharmacogenetic approach provides a foundational dataset describing the influence of opioids on synaptic processing in a brain microcircuit known to be critical for driving hedonic behaviors.

Calcium levels and structural diversity among synaptic ribbons in bipolar neurons likely enable differential encoding of visual information, revealing a potential mechanism for fine-tuning sensory signal processing.

A normative computational model of individual differences in mouse exploration driven by reward and threat uncertainty as well as risk sensitivity when faced with a novel object in an open field.

The emerging taxonomy of proprioceptive neuron subtypes provides a framework for dissecting the cellular logic of sensorimotor control.

Expectation optimizes perception through center-surround inhibition, enhancing expected representations while suppressing similar, irrelevant ones.
