    Methylglyoxal-derived hydroimidazolone, MG-H1, increases food intake by altering tyramine signaling via the GATA transcription factor ELT-3 in Caenorhabditis elegans

    Muniesh Muthaiyan Shanmugam, Jyotiska Chaudhuri ... Pankaj Kapahi
    Advanced glycation end-products (compounds which make the food appetizing and aromatic) intricately modulate organism’s homeostatic and hedonistic signaling pathways thereby inducing preferential consumption of excess nutrients offering preliminary insights into overconsumption of modern-day processed food.

    1. Neuroscience

    Quantifying decision-making in dynamic, continuously evolving environments

    Maria Ruesseler, Lilian Aline Weber ... Laurence Tudor Hunt
    Human behaviour in a continuous decision making task adapts to the overall statistics of the sensory environment, and these adaptations are also reflected in changes in neural responses to incoming sensory evidence.

    Optogenetic activation of visual thalamus generates artificial visual percepts

    Jing Wang, Hamid Azimi ... Gregor Rainer
    The visual thalamus is a promising target for neural prosthetic intervention aimed at the restoration of visual function.
    1. Neuroscience

    Modulation of input sensitivity and output gain by retinal amacrine cells

    Neda Nategh, Mihai Manu, Stephen A. Baccus
    1. Neuroscience

    Integrating Gaze, image analysis, and body tracking: Foothold selection during locomotion

    Karl Muller, Dan Panfili ... Mary Hayhoe
    1. Neuroscience

    An antagonism between Spinophilin and Syd-1 operates upstream of memory-promoting presynaptic long-term plasticity

    Niraja Ramesh, Marc Escher ... Stephan J Sigrist
    An antagonism between Spinophilin and Syd-1 converge on presynaptic actin to control presynaptic plasticity and memory consolidation in the Drosophila mushroom body.

    Neural circuit mechanisms for transforming learned olfactory valences into wind-oriented movement

    Yoshinori Aso, Daichi Yamada ... Toshihide Hige
    A cluster of neurons that integrates inhibitory and excitatory synaptic inputs from the mushroom body output neurons of the appetitive and aversive memory compartments, respectively, triggers upwind steering, mediating memory-driven olfactory navigation behaviors.
