Kavli Affiliate: Damon Clark | Authors: Patricia Janak | Summary: Cues paired with alcohol can be potent drivers of craving, alcohol-seeking, consumption, and relapse. While the ventral pallidum is implicated in appetitive and consummatory responses across several reward classes and types of behaviors, its role in behavioral responses to Pavlovian alcohol cues has not previously […]
Kavli Affiliate: Damon Clark | Authors: Tong Gou, Catherine A Matulis and Damon A Clark | Summary: Sensory systems adapt their response properties to the statistics of their inputs. For instance, visual systems adapt to low-order statistics like mean and variance to encode the stimulus efficiently or to facilitate specific downstream computations. However, it remains […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sreekanth Chalasani | Authors: Caroline S Muirhead, Kirthi C Reddy, Sophia Guerra, Michael Rieger, Michael P Hart, Jagan Srinivasan and Sreekanth H Chalasani | Summary: Neurexins and their canonical binding partners, neuroligins, are localized to neuronal pre-, and post-synapses, respectively, but less is known about their role in driving behaviors. Here, we use […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nicola Allen | Authors: Laura Sancho, Matthew M Boisvert, Trinity Dawoodtabar, Jillybeth Burgado, Ellen Wang and Nicola J Allen | Summary: Neural circuits in many brain regions are refined by experience. Sensory circuits support higher plasticity at younger ages during critical periods – times of circuit refinement and maturation – and limit plasticity […]
Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Cheng Peng, Sougata Mardanya, Alexander N. Petsch, Vineet Kumar Sharma, Shuyi Li | Summary: The Kitaev interaction, found in candidate materials such as $alpha$-RuCl$_3$, occurs through the metal ($M$)-ligand ($X$)-metal ($M$) paths of the edge-sharing octahedra because the large spin-orbit coupling (SOC) on the metal atoms activates […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Ziyu Liu, Azadeh Alavi, Minyi Li, Xiang Zhang, | Summary: Self-supervised learning (SSL) has recently emerged as a powerful approach to learning representations from large-scale unlabeled data, showing promising results in time series analysis. The self-supervised representation learning can be categorized into two mainstream: contrastive and generative. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xingde Li | Authors: Wenxuan Liang, Yuehan Liu, Honghua Guan, Vorada Sakulsaengprapha, Katherine Luby-Phelps, Mala Mahendroo and Xingde Li | Summary: Background Preterm birth (PTB) is a global public health issue affecting millions of newborns every year. Orchestrated remodeling of the cervix is essential for normal pregnancy and birth, while PTB is closely […]
Xiaolong Du, Andrew Benson, Zhichao Carton Zeng, Tommaso Treu, Annika H. G. Peter | Summary: [[{“value”:”The internal structure and abundance of dark matter halos and subhalos are powerful probes of the nature of dark matter. In order to compare observations with dark matter models, accurate theoretical predictions of these quantities are needed. We present a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Long Zhang | First 5 Authors: Long Zhang, Halvin Yang, Yizhe Zhao, Jie Hu, | Summary: Integrated data and energy transfer (IDET) has been of fundamental importance for providing both wireless data transfer (WDT) and wireless energy transfer (WET) services towards low-power devices. Fluid antenna (FA) is capable of exploiting the huge spatial […]
Kavli Affiliate: David Gross | First 5 Authors: Carsten Hartmann, Philipp C. Böttcher, David Gross, Dirk Witthaut, | Summary: Synchronization is essential for the operation of AC power systems: All generators in the power grid must rotate with fixed relative phases to enable a steady flow of electric power. Understanding the conditions for and the […]
