The Apollo implant, an open-source device tested in eight laboratories, can be used to reversibly implant Neuropixels probes and track the activity of populations of neurons across days.
Seemingly disparate property-based tasks (oddball search, same-different and symmetry) are solved by computing a novel image property, visual homogeneity, which is localized to the object selective cortex.

Human neonates process regularities in speech's phonetic and voice content in parallel, but only phonetic regularities evoke a specific ERP component in a post-learning phase.
Predictive pharmacology based on behavioural fingerprinting can identify druggable pathways that are altered or renormalized in zebrafish larvae that harbor mutations in early and late-onset Alzheimer's disease risk genes.

Sleep's role to down-scale glutamate, excitatory, frontal cortical synapses is extended to include an up-scaling of metaplastic LTP potential, in recovery from prolonged waking induced saturation of this LTP potential.

Mutually exclusive splicing of two exon pairs of the only Drosophila Cav2 homolog cacophony mediates functional diversity of Cav2 channels in Drosophila.
The well-studied Kv1.2 potassium ion channel is observed in a variety of states and conditions, to understand mechanisms of ion permeation, gating and block.
