Leveraging vision to understand curiosity

Kavli Affiliate: Jacqueline Gottlieb | Authors: Michael Cohanpour, Mariam Aly and Jacqueline Gottlieb | Summary: Humans are immensely curious and motivated to reduce uncertainty. Inspired by studies of sensory uncertainty, we hypothesized that visual areas provide multivariate representations of uncertainty, which are read out by higher-order areas that encode confidence and, ultimately, translated into curiosity. […]

Organization and Plasticity of Inhibition in Hippocampal Recurrent Circuits

Kavli Affiliate: Attila Losonczy | Authors: Bert Vancura, Tristan Geiller and Attila Losonczy | Summary: Excitatory-inhibitory interactions structure recurrent network dynamics for efficient cortical computations. In the CA3 area of the hippocampus, recurrent circuit dynamics, including experience-induced plasticity at excitatory synapses, are thought to play a key role in episodic memory encoding and consolidation via […]

A frontosensory circuit for visual context processing is synchronous in the theta/alpha band

Kavli Affiliate: Darcy Peterka | Authors: Georgia Bastos, Jacob T Holmes, Jordan M Ross, Anna M Rader, Connor G Gallimore, Darcy S Peterka and Jordan P Hamm | Summary: Visual processing is strongly influenced by context. Stimuli that deviate from contextual regularities elicit augmented responses in primary visual cortex (V1). These heightened responses, known as […]

Spatial heterogeneity in biofilm metabolism elicited by local control of phenazine methylation

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Min | Authors: Christopher R. Evans, Marina K. Smiley, Sean Asahara Thio, Mian Wei, Alexa Price-Whelan, Wei Min and Lars E.P. Dietrich | Summary: Within biofilms, gradients of electron acceptors such as oxygen stimulate the formation of physiological subpopulations. This heterogeneity can enable cross-feeding and promote drug resilience, features of the multicellular […]
