Kavli Affiliate: Patricia Janak | Authors: Robin Magnard, Yifeng Cheng, Joanna Zhou, Haley Province, Nathalie Thiriet, Patricia H Janak and Youna Vandaele | Summary: Reward-associated cues serve different functions depending on whether they precede or terminate action sequences. Cues that precede action sequences and signal opportunity for reward could serve as GO signals to initiate […]

Kavli Affiliate: Sarah Woolley | Authors: Isabella Catalano and Sarah C Woolley | Summary: Social and sensory experiences across the lifespan can shape social interactions, however, experience-dependent plasticity is widely studied within discrete life stages. In the socially monogamous zebra finch, in which females use learned vocal signals to identify individuals and form long-lasting pair […]
Kavli Affiliate: Marcelo Mattar | Authors: Li Ji-An, Marcus K Benna and Marcelo G Mattar | Summary: Normative modeling frameworks such as Bayesian inference and reinforcement learning provide valuable insights into the fundamental principles governing adaptive behavior. While these frameworks are valued for their simplicity and interpretability, their reliance on few parameters often limits their […]

Kavli Affiliate: Carey Priebe and Joshua Vogelstein | Authors: Qingyang Wang, Albert Cardona, Marta Zlatic, Joshua Vogelstein and Carey Priebe | Summary: Approximately four in five neurons are excitatory. This is true across functional regions and species. Why do we have so many excitatory neurons? Little is known. Here we provide a normative answer to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Li Zhao | Authors: Ammon Thompson, Michael R. May, Ben Hopkins, Nerisa Riedl, Olga Barmina, Benjamin J. Liebeskind, Li Zhao, David Begun and Artyom Kopp | Summary: Changes in gene expression are a key driver of phenotypic evolution, leading to a persistent interest in the evolution of transcriptomes. Traditionally, gene expression is modeled […]

Kavli Affiliate: Edward Chang | Authors: Jeremy Saal, Ankit N. Khambhati, Edward F. Chang and Prasad Shirvalkar | Summary: Background Intracranial EEG (iEEG) is crucial for understanding brain function, but stimulation-induced noise complicates data interpretation. Traditional artifact detection methods require manual user input or struggle with noise variability, especially with limited labeled data. Objective We […]
