Kavli Affiliate: Christina Gremel | Authors: Christian Cazares, Drew C. Schreiner, Mariela Lopez Valencia and Christina M. Gremel | Summary: Summary The ability to use information from one’s prior actions is necessary for decision-making. While Orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) has been hypothesized as key for inferences made using cue and value-related information, whether OFC populations contribute […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert Clark | Authors: Robert Clark Penner | Summary: Abstract This survey summarizes several works by the author on protein geometry and protein function with applications to viral glycoproteins in general and the spike glycoprotein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in particular. Though a certain level of mathematical sophistication is assumed, the background biology […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kristina Nielsen and Charles Connor | Authors: Alexandriya MX Emonds, Ramanujan Srinath, Kristina J Nielsen and Charles E Connor | Summary: ABSTRACT When your head tilts laterally, as in sports, reaching, and resting, your eyes counterrotate less than 20%, and thus eye images rotate, over a total range of about 180°.

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Stryker | Authors: Megumi Kaneko and Michael P Stryker | Summary: Abstract We have previously shown that recovery of visual responses to a deprived eye during the critical period in mouse primary visual cortex (V1) requires both export of mRNA encoding brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) to the dendrites of cortical cells […]
Kavli Affiliate: Patricia Janak | Authors: Kurt M Fraser and Patricia H Janak | Summary: ABSTRACT Reward-seeking in the world is driven by cues that can have ambiguous predictive and motivational value. To produce adaptive, flexible reward-seeking it is necessary to exploit occasion setters, other distinct features in the environment, to resolve the ambiguity of […]
