Minute-scale oscillatory sequences in medial entorhinal cortex

Kavli Affiliate: Edvard Moser, May Britt Moser, Ragnhild Leifsdottir, Horst Obenhaus | Authors: Soledad Gonzalo Cogno, Horst A. Obenhaus, Ragnhild Irene Jacobsen, Flavio Donato, May-Britt Moser and Edvard I. Moser | Summary: The medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) hosts many of the brain’s circuit elements for spatial navigation and episodic memory, operations that require neural activity […]

A Spectrum of Time Horizons for Dopamine Signals

Kavli Affiliate: Joshua Berke | Authors: Wei Wei, Ali Mohebi and Joshua Berke | Summary: Dopamine input to striatum can encode reward prediction error, a critical signal for updating predictions of future rewards. However, it is unclear how this mechanism handles the need to make predictions, and provide feedback, over multiple time horizons: from seconds […]

Repeated birth injuries lead to pelvic floor muscle dysfunction and impairment in regeneration

Kavli Affiliate: Karen Christman | Authors: Pamela Duran, Emma Zelus, Saya French, Lindsey Burnett, Karen Christman and Marianna Alperin | Summary: Objectives: Childbirth is a key risk factor for pelvic floor muscle (PFM) injury and dysfunction, and subsequent pelvic floor disorders (PFDs). Multiparity further exacerbates these risks. Using the pre-clinical rat model of simulated birth […]

The lateral habenula mediates the association of a conditioned stimulus with the absence of an appetitive unconditioned stimulus

Kavli Affiliate: Michela Gallagher | Authors: Dong-Hee Kim, In-Beom Jin, Nam-Heon Kim, Yong-Jae Jeon, Bo-Ryoung Choi, Michela Gallagher and Jung-Soo Han | Summary: The lateral habenula (LHb) has been implicated in conditioned inhibition. Here, the modulating effects of LHb activity on the association of a conditioned stimulus (CS) with the nonoccurrence of an unconditioned stimulus […]

High precision magnetoencephalography reveals increased right-inferior frontal gyrus beta power during response conflict

Kavli Affiliate: Adam Aron | Authors: Pria L Daniel, James J Bonaiuto, Sven Bestmann, Adam R Aron and Simon Little | Summary: Flexibility of behavior and the ability to rapidly switch actions is critical for adaptive living in humans. It is well established that the right-inferior frontal gyrus (R-IFG) is recruited during outright action-stopping, relating […]

Altered basal ganglia output during self-restraint

Kavli Affiliate: Joshua Berke | Authors: Bon-Mi Gu and Joshua D. Berke | Summary: Suppressing actions is essential for flexible behavior. Multiple neural circuits involved in behavioral inhibition converge upon a key basal ganglia output nucleus, the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr). To examine how changes in basal ganglia output contribute to self-restraint, we recorded […]

Flexible utilization of spatial- and motor-based codes for the storage of visuo-spatial information

Kavli Affiliate: John Serences | Authors: Margaret M. Henderson, Rosanne L. Rademaker and John T. Serences | Summary: Working memory provides flexible storage of information in service of upcoming behavioral goals. Some models propose specific fixed loci and mechanisms for the storage of visual information in working memory, such as sustained spiking in parietal and […]

Projective LDDMM: Mapping Molecular Digital Pathology with Tissue MRI

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Miller, Menno Witter | Authors: Kaitlin Stouffer, Menno Witter, Daniel Tward and Michael Miller | Summary: Reconstructing dense 3D anatomical coordinates from 2D projective measurements has become a central problem in both mouse and human digital pathology. We describe a new family of diffeomorphic mapping technologies called Projective LDDMM which generate diffeomorphic […]
