The double-drift illusion biases the marmoset oculomotor system

Kavli Affiliate: John Reynolds | Authors: Nicholas M Dotson, Zachary W Davis, Jared M Salisbury, Stephanie E Palmer, Patrick Cavanagh and John Reynolds | Summary: Abstract The double-drift illusion has two unique characteristics: the error between the perceived and physical position of the stimulus grows over time, and saccades to the moving target land much […]

Finemap-MiXeR: A variational Bayesian approach for genetic finemapping

Kavli Affiliate: Anders Dale | Authors: Bayram Cevdet Akdeniz, Oleksandr Frei, Alexey Shadrin, Dmitry Vetrov, Dmitry Kropotov, Anders Dale, Eivind Hovig and Ole Andreassen | Summary: Abstract Discoveries from genome-wide association studies often contain large clusters of highly correlated genetic variants, which makes them hard to interpret. In such cases, finemapping the underlying causal variants […]

Low Rate Hippocampal Delay Period Activity Encodes Behavioral Experience

Kavli Affiliate: Jill Leutgeb | Authors: Markos Athanasiadis, Stefano Masserini, Li Yuan, Dustin Fetterhoff, Jill K Leutgeb, Stefan Leutgeb and Christian Leibold | Summary: Remembering what just happened is a crucial prerequisite to form long-term memories but also for establishing and maintaining working memory. So far there is no general agreement about cortical mechanisms that […]

Violation of the ultrastructural size principle in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex underlies working memory impairment in the aged common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus)

Kavli Affiliate: John Reynolds | Authors: Courtney Glavis-Bloom, Casey R Vanderlip, Sammy Weiser Novak, Masaaki Kuwajima, Lyndsey Kirk, Uri Manor, Kristen M Harris and John H Reynolds | Summary: ABSTRACT Working memory relies critically on the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC). Morphology and function of the dlPFC, and corresponding working memory performance, are affected early in […]
