Theory of interaction between untuned modulatory inputs and tuned sensory inputs

Kavli Affiliate: Kenneth Miller | Authors: Tuan Nguyen, Agostina Palmigiano and Kenneth D Miller | Summary: How does the brain integrate sensory inputs with non-feature-tuned signals, such as those arising from behavioral state changes or neuromodulation? Here, we show that the dynamics of disordered E/I networks with structured, feature-dependent connectivity can be well characterized by […]

Sweeps in space: leveraging geographic data to identify beneficial alleles in Anopheles gambiae

Kavli Affiliate: Scott Small | Authors: Clara T Rehmann, Scott T Small, Peter L Ralph and Andrew D. Kern | Summary: As organisms adapt to environmental changes, natural selection modifies the frequency of non-neutral alleles. For beneficial mutations, the outcome of this process may be a selective sweep, in which an allele rapidly increases in […]

Hippocampus facilitates reinforcement learning under partial observability

Kavli Affiliate: Rui Costa | Authors: Dabal Pedamonti, Samia Mohinta, Martin Dimitrov, Hugo Malagon-Vina, Stephane Ciocchi and Rui Ponte Costa | Summary: Mastering navigation in environments with limited visibility is crucial for survival. Although the hippocam-pus has been associated with goal-oriented navigation, its role in real-world behaviour remains unclear. To investigate this, we combined deep […]

Rare mutations implicate CGE interneurons as a vulnerable axis of cognitive deficits across psychiatric disorders

Kavli Affiliate: Attila Losonczy | Authors: Stephanie A Herrlinger, Jiayao Wang, Bovey Y Rao, Jonathan Chang, Joseph Gogos, Attila Losonczy and Dennis Vitkup | Summary: Neuropsychiatric disorders such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and schizophrenia (SCZ) share genetic risk factors, including rare high penetrance single nucleotide variants and copy number variants (CNVs), and exhibit both […]
