    EphrinB2 knockdown in cervical spinal cord preserves diaphragm innervation in a mutant SOD1 mouse model of ALS

    Mark W Urban, Brittany A Charsar ... Angelo C Lepore
    In the SOD1G93A mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), expression of transmembrane signaling molecule ephrinB2 in spinal cord astrocytes contributes to motor neuron damage and loss of diaphragm function.

    Resource-rational account of sequential effects in human prediction

    Arthur Prat-Carrabin, Florent Meyniel, Rava Azeredo da Silveira
    A proposed model of optimal inference under cognitive costs accounts for human sequential effects, including subtle patterns of attractive and repulsive influence of past observations, in a binary prediction task across a wide range of stimulus conditions.

    Resting-state alterations in behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia are related to the distribution of monoamine and GABA neurotransmitter systems

    Lisa Hahn, Simon B Eickhoff ... Matthias L Schroeter
    Local brain functional activity reductions in bvFTD follow the distribution of serotonergic, GABAergic, and norepinephrinergic neurotransmitter systems, indicating a selective vulnerability and providing novel insights into the underlying disease mechanisms.

    A preclinical model of THC edibles that produces high-dose cannabimimetic responses

    Anthony English, Fleur Uittenbogaard ... Benjamin Bruce Land
    Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)-E-gel enables robust preclinical study of voluntary THC consumption in mice, revealing sex-dependent psychotomimetic effects that are valuable for understanding cannabimimetic responses.

    Eelbrain, a Python toolkit for time-continuous analysis with temporal response functions

    Christian Brodbeck, Proloy Das ... Jonathan Z Simon
    Brain activity is modelled as a function of stimuli that evolve continuously in time, in experimental designs without repeated trials.
