Kavli Affiliate: Karen Christman | Authors: Pamela Duran, Emma Zelus, Saya French, Lindsey Burnett, Karen Christman and Marianna Alperin | Summary: Objectives: Childbirth is a key risk factor for pelvic floor muscle (PFM) injury and dysfunction, and subsequent pelvic floor disorders (PFDs). Multiparity further exacerbates these risks. Using the pre-clinical rat model of simulated birth […]
Kavli Affiliate: Adam Aron | Authors: Pria L Daniel, James J Bonaiuto, Sven Bestmann, Adam R Aron and Simon Little | Summary: Flexibility of behavior and the ability to rapidly switch actions is critical for adaptive living in humans. It is well established that the right-inferior frontal gyrus (R-IFG) is recruited during outright action-stopping, relating […]
Kavli Affiliate: Joshua Berke | Authors: Bon-Mi Gu and Joshua D. Berke | Summary: Suppressing actions is essential for flexible behavior. Multiple neural circuits involved in behavioral inhibition converge upon a key basal ganglia output nucleus, the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr). To examine how changes in basal ganglia output contribute to self-restraint, we recorded […]
Kavli Affiliate: John Serences | Authors: Margaret M. Henderson, Rosanne L. Rademaker and John T. Serences | Summary: Working memory provides flexible storage of information in service of upcoming behavioral goals. Some models propose specific fixed loci and mechanisms for the storage of visual information in working memory, such as sustained spiking in parietal and […]

Kavli Affiliate: Ali Brivanlou, Eric Siggia | Authors: Anna Yoney, Lu Bai, Ali H. Brivanlou and Eric D Siggia | Summary: Vocal communication in both songbirds and humans relies on categorical perception of smoothly varying acoustic spaces. Vocal perception can be biased by expectation and context, but the mechanisms of this bias are not well […]

Kavli Affiliate: Cory Miller | Authors: Victoria Ngo, Cory Miller, Julia Gorman, Maria Fernanda De La Fuente, Antonio Souto and Nicola Schiel | Summary: Here, we examined prey-capture in wild common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus) to explicate the active role of primate vision for high-precision, goal-directed motor actions in challenging natural environments. We observed distinct marmoset […]
