Behavioral and circuit analyses show that changes to energetic demand are a key driver of consolidation of daily sleep and feeding patterns as animals mature.
Brain-machine interfacing was used to align trials with heightened prefrontal-hippocampal oscillatory synchronization on spatial working memory-dependent and -independent tasks, and these trials were associated with correct choices.

The neural response to natural speech and music processing is mostly shared between the domains, with additional evidence for selectivity in distributed (i.e. not regional) and frequency-specific neural activity.
Adaptation within a continuous attractor neural network explains theta phase precession and procession, providing insight into the neural mechanism of theta phase coding in the hippocampus.

A novel Aβ-driven inhibitory mechanism on γ-secretases, which leads to substrate accumulation and reduced release of products, contributes to neurotoxicity by impairing γ-secretase signaling and might operate in Alzheimer’s disease.

When new and past experiences are similar, the memories of those experiences are stored together, and when new and past experiences are different, the memories of those experiences are stored separately.
