A Rational Information Gathering Account of Infant Habituation

Kavli Affiliate: Marcelo Mattar | Authors: Gili Karni, Marcelo Mattar, Lauren Emberson and Nathaniel Douglass Daw | Summary: Gaze is one of the primary experimental measures for studying cognitive development, especially in preverbal infants. However, the field is only beginning to develop a principled explanatory framework for making sense of the various factors affecting gaze. […]

Small siphophage binding to an open state of the LptDE outer membrane lipopolysaccharide translocon

Kavli Affiliate: Robert E. Clark | Authors: Bert van den Berg, Emily Dunbar, Robert Clark, Arnaud Basle, Shenaz Allyjaun, Hector Newman, Julia Hubbard and Syma Khalid | Summary: Bacteriophages are bacterial viruses that provide alternatives to small-molecule drugs to combat infections by antibiotic-resistant bacteria. To infect a bacterial host, a phage needs to bind to […]

Ecological Factors Affecting Prosociality in Marmoset Monkeys

Kavli Affiliate: Cory Miller | Authors: Anand R Mysorekar, Anushka Vispute and Cory Miller | Summary: Prosocial behaviors, such as cooperation and food sharing, are critical for maintaining group cohesion in social species, yet the influence of transient physiological states on these behaviors remains poorly understood. This study investigates how short-term ecological factors impact social […]

Interpretable abstractions of artificial neural networks predict behavior and neural activity during human information gathering

Kavli Affiliate: Marcelo Mattar | Authors: Simone D’Ambrogio, Jan Grohn, Nima Khalighinejad, Marcelo Mattar, Laurence T Hunt and Matthew F Rushworth | Summary: It has been suggested that humans and other animals are driven by a fundamental desire to acquire information about opportunities available in their environments. Not only might such a desire explain pathological […]
