Interesting new study from the Frank lab: Hippocampal representations of alternative possibilities are flexibly generated to meet cognitive demands
Hippocampal representations of alternative possibilities are flexibly generated to meet cognitive demands
Comrie et al. show that the hippocampus flexibly represents different alternative possibilities—including paths ahead, behind, and far away—to meet distinct cognitive demands related to decision-makin...

Representational learning by optimization of neural manifolds in an olfactory memory network - Nature Neuroscience
Using experiments and theory, the authors examine how olfactory memories are encoded in the zebrafish olfactory cortex. They find that experience reshapes the internal map of odor space, making releva...

Neural geometry in the human hippocampus enables generalization across spatial position and gaze
Chericoni et al. show that neurons in the human hippocampus track the positions of multiple agents in a simple pursuit-based video game. They identified place codes for each agent and for gaze. The co...

GluA2-containing AMPA receptors form a continuum of Ca2+-permeable channels - Nature
GluA2-containing AMPA receptors (AMPARs) are not Ca2+ impermeable, and their ability to transport Ca2+ is shaped by the subunit composition of AMPAR tetramers as well as the orientation of transm...

A gradual temporal shift of dopamine responses mirrors the progression of temporal difference error in machine learning - Nature Neuroscience
The authors found that dopamine signals move gradually from time of reward to time of cue through intermediate timepoints, similarly to the evaluation signals used in temporal difference learning. The...

A vector calculus for neural computation in the cerebellum
Null space theory predicts that neurons generate spikes not only to produce behavior but also to prevent the undesirable effect of other neurons on behavior. In this work, we show that this competitiv...
