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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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, […]
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 […]

Kavli Affiliate: Gabriel Silva | Authors: Pedro Rocha Tenorio, Gabriel Smolak Sobieski e Silva, Débora Hipólito Quadreli, Juliany Carolina Duma de Castro, Glaura Scantamburlo Alves Fernandes and Fábio Goulart de Andrade | Summary: Obesity is a multifactorial condition influenced not only by diet composition but also by food processing. While high-fat and high-sugar diets are […]
Kavli Affiliate: Anders Dale | Authors: Le Zhang, Olivier Celhay, Biplabendu Das, Samantha Berman, Laura R. Ziemer, Calen J. Smith, Anders M. Dale and Janosch Linkersdörfer | Summary: Abstract The ABCD Study® is the largest longitudinal research study of brain development and child health across the United States. The study generates a rich multimodal dataset, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Marcelo Mattar | Authors: Sreejan Kumar, Matthieu B Le Cauchois, Alexander Mathis, Lea Duncker, Jonathon R. Howlett and Marcelo G. Mattar | Summary: The brain seamlessly transforms sensory information into precisely-timed movements, enabling us to type familiar words, play musical instruments, or perform complex motor routines with millisecond precision. This process often involves […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mark Ellisman | Authors: Johannes Pfabe, Cristiane dos Santos, Melanie Cutler, Christopher Acree, Aliyah Habashy, Amanda Cambraia, Guy Perkins, Mark Ellisman, Marjan Slak Rupnik and Rafael Arrojo e Drigo | Summary: Calorie restriction (CR) promotes beta cell longevity by regulating cell identity, organelle and protein homeostasis, and metabolism pathways. CR beta cells have […]
