The effect of Sinorhizobium meliloti volatilomes and synthetic long-chain methylketones on soil and Medicago truncatula microbiomes

Kavli Affiliate: Rafael Nunez | Authors: Pieter van Dillewijn, Lydia M. Bernabéu-Roda, Virginia Cuéllar, Rafael Núñez, Otto Geiger, Isabel M. López-Lara and María J. Soto | Summary: Bacterial volatile compounds play important roles in intra- and interkingdom interactions but very little is known about their effects on soil and plant microbiomes. The legume symbiont Sinorhizobium […]

Flexible gaze reinstatement during working memory for natural scenes

Kavli Affiliate: Anastasia Kiyonaga | Authors: Yueying Dong, Yunchen Hung, Lana Gaspariani and Anastasia Kiyonaga | Summary: Working memory (WM) representations may be more action-oriented and anatomically widespread than previously assumed. For instance, oculomotor signatures like gaze biases can reflect spatial WM content. However, the specificity and functional relevance of such signatures is unclear. Here, […]

Flexible Working Memory in the Peripheral Nervous System

Kavli Affiliate: Anastasia Kiyonaga | Authors: Sihan Yang, Yueying Dong and Anastasia Kiyonaga | Summary: Working memory (WM) representations that are distributed across the brain can be flexibly recruited to best guide behavior1–4. For instance, information may be represented relatively more strongly in visual cortex when a WM task requires fine visual detail, or more […]

A neural network model of free recall learns multiple memory strategies

Kavli Affiliate: Marcelo Mattar | Authors: Moufan Li, Kristpher T. Jensen, Qiong Zhang, Qihong Lu and Marcelo G. Mattar | Summary: Humans exhibit structured patterns of memory recall, including a tendency to recall more recent information and to recall events in the same order they were experienced. Classic computational models explain these patterns by positing […]

Age associations with cortical and subcortical brain structure in adolescents age 9-17

Kavli Affiliate: Anders Dale | Authors: Diana M. Smith, Alison Rigby, Diliana M. Pecheva, Pravesh Parekh, Ashley Becker, Robert John Loughnan, Thomas Nichols, Terry Jernigan and Anders Dale | Summary: Introduction Adolescence is a pivotal period in brain structural development and maturation. However, investigation of cortical and subcortical brain changes during this time have been […]

Methylphenidate-induced reductions in choice impulsivity are associated with alterations in cortico-striatal beta oscillations.

Kavli Affiliate: Dhakshin Ramanathan | Authors: Jason Nan, Alyssa J Terry, Noelle Lee, Morteza Salimi, Reyana Menon, Sam A Barnes, Dhakshin S Ramanathan and Miranda Francoeur Koloski | Summary: Impulsive choice- preferring small, immediate rewards over larger, delayed reward- is a hallmark of many psychiatric disorders. Methylphenidate, a dopamine and noradrenaline transporter inhibitor, reduces impulsivity, […]

Distributed and drifting signals for working memory load in human

Kavli Affiliate: John Serences | Authors: Kirsten C.S. Adam, Edward Awh and John T. Serences | Summary: Increasing working memory (WM) load incurs behavioral costs, and whether the neural constraints on behavioral costs are localized (i.e., emanating from the intraparietal sulcus) or distributed across cortex remains an active area of debate. In a pre-registered fMRI […]
