Daniel Salzman, Adam N Mamelak, Ralph Adolphs, Stefano Fusi and Ueli Rutishauser | Summary: Humans have the remarkable cognitive capacity to rapidly adapt to changing environments. Central to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Rafael Yuste | Authors: Nicola Masala, Manuel Mittag, Eleonora Ambrad Giovannetti, Darik A O’Neil, Fabian J Distler, Peter Rupprecht, Fritjof Helmchen, Rafael Yuste, Martin Fuhrmann, Heinz Beck, Michael Wenzel and Tony Kelly | Summary: Genetically encoded calcium indicators (GECIs) such as GCaMP are an invaluable tool in neuroscience to monitor neuronal activity using […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Min | Authors: Shan Jiang, Lu Chen, Wei-Min Qu, Zhi-Li Huang and Chang-Rui Chen | Summary: General anesthesia is a fundamental process required to undertake safely and humanely a high fraction of surgeries and invasive diagnostic procedures. However, the undesired stress response associated with general anesthesia (GA) causes delayed recovery and even […]
Kavli Affiliate: Liam Paninski | Authors: Ankit Vishnubhotla, Charlotte Loh, Liam Paninski, Akash Srivastava and Cole Lincoln Hurwitz | Summary: Contrastive learning is quickly becoming an essential tool in neuroscience for extracting robust and meaningful representations of neural activity. Despite numerous applications to neuronal population data, there has been little exploration of how these methods […]

Kavli Affiliate: Stefano Fusi & Mazen Kheirbek | Authors: Frances Xia, Valeria Fascianelli, Nina Vishwakarma, Frances Grace Ghinger, Stefano Fusi and Mazen Kheirbek | Summary: The neural dynamics that underlie divergent anhedonic responses to stress remain unclear. Here, we identified neuronal dynamics in an amygdala-hippocampal circuit that distinguish stress resilience and susceptibility. In a reward-choice […]
Kavli Affiliate: Rudy Behnia | Authors: Ishani Ganguly, Emily L. Heckman, Ashok Litwin-Kumar, E. Josephine Clowney and Rudy Behnia | Summary: The arthropod mushroom body is well-studied as an expansion layer that represents olfactory stimuli and links them to contingent events. However, 8% of mushroom body Kenyon cells in Drosophila melanogaster receive predominantly visual input, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Richard Axel | Authors: Jennifer J Bussell, Ryan P Badman, Christian David Márton, Ethan S Bromberg-Martin, LF Abbott, Kanaka Rajan and Richard Axel | Summary: HAnimals are motivated to acquire knowledge of their world. They seek information that does not influence reward outcomes suggesting that information has intrinsic value. We have asked whether […]
Kavli Affiliate: Costa, Rui | Authors: Joseph Pemberton, Paul Chadderton and Rui Ponte Costa | Summary: Abstract To drive behavior, the cortex must bridge sensory cues with future outcomes. However, the principles by which cortical networks learn such sensory-behavioural transformations remain largely elusive. Here, we posit that the cerebellum assumes a crucial role in driving […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Goldberg | Authors: Michael E. Goldberg, Olivia Rutler, Randy M. Bruno, Jung Man Park, Serena Persaud, Stylianos Kosmidis and Nina Hirano | Summary: Because the retina moves constantly, the retinotopic representation of the visual world is spatially inaccurate and the brain must transform this spatially inaccurate retinal signal to a spatially accurate […]
