    Neurodegeneration: A role for RNA knots in Alzheimer’s disease

    Silvia Galli, Marco Di Antonio
    The buildup of knot-like RNA structures in brain cells may be the key to understanding how uncontrolled protein aggregation drives Alzheimer’s disease.

    An image-computable model of speeded decision-making

    Paul I Jaffe, Gustavo X Santiago-Reyes ... Russell A Poldrack
    Combining biologically-plausible neural network models of vision with traditional decision-making models enables a detailed characterization of how the visual system extracts representations that guide decisions from raw sensory inputs.

    Adaptive chunking improves effective working memory capacity in a prefrontal cortex and basal ganglia circuit

    Aneri Soni, Michael J Frank
    This frontostriatal neural network model links the source of working memory capacity limitations to challenges in learning resource management, and mitigates this challenge by learning a 'chunking' strategy.

    Characterization of direct Purkinje cell outputs to the brainstem

    Christopher H Chen, Zhiyi Yao ... Wade G Regehr
    Cerebellar Purkinje cells make direct synapses within the parabrachial, vestibular, pontine central gray, and other brainstem nuclei that exhibit spatial gradients and cell specificity consistent with nuanced influences on diverse behaviors.
