    Robust variability of grid cell properties within individual grid modules enhances encoding of local space

    William T Redman, Santiago Acosta-Mendoza ... Michael J Goard
    Grid cells within an individual module show significantly more variability in grid properties than would be expected by chance, resulting in improved neural representation of animal location in the environment.

    Cortico-striatal action control inherent of opponent cognitive-motivational styles

    Cassandra Avila, Martin Sarter
    Electrochemical recordings of cortico-striatal glutamatergic signaling, and chemogenetic inhibition of such signaling, revealed an essential role of cortico-striatal input for cued action selection, but not for cued stopping.

    Visual homogeneity computations in the brain enable solving property-based visual tasks

    Georgin Jacob, RT Pramod, SP Arun
    Seemingly disparate property-based tasks (oddball search, same-different and symmetry) are solved by computing a novel image property, visual homogeneity, which is localized to the object selective cortex.

    Multiplexed assays of human disease-relevant mutations reveal UTR dinucleotide composition as a major determinant of RNA stability

    Jia-Ying Su, Yun-Lin Wang ... Chien-Ling Lin
    The UA-dinucleotide ratio in UTRs is negatively correlated with RNA stability both in the massively parallel reporter assay and in vivo, and is prevalent in fast-turnover genes.
