The unexpected absence of danger is experienced as a pleasurable relief and activates reward-related brain regions in humans, highlighting an overlap in the processing of absent danger and rewards.

The entopeduncular nucleus multiplexes motor and reward signals, with spatio-temporal coding more prominent than kinematic, both shaped by movement goals, challenging prevailing theories of basal ganglia function.

Motor memories represent dynamics in a minimum noise framework such that the execution of forces based on this representation minimizes the force distortion arising from neural noise, explaining the prior inconsistent force generalization results.

behaviorMate provides a flexible, open-source platform for in vivo investigations that relies on a network of devices to enable observation of neural activity during navigation using physical treadmill and VR setups.

The ligand Netrin mediates axon guidance through a combination of haptotaxis over short distances and chemotaxis over longer distances.

Audiovisual temporal recalibration relies on the same causal-inference processes that govern cross-modal perception.

G-quadruplexes accumulate in the brain with aging and Alzheimer's disease, suggesting a new possible mechanism of neurodegeneration.

Proteomic analyses reveal a distinct protein signature underlying microtubule organization and regenerative asymmetries in sensory neuron axons, supported by an in vitro system replicating key features of sensory neuron biology.
