Subiculum, the primary output structure of the hippocampus, remains an enigmatic structure in spatial processing. Here the authors reimagine subicular spatial responses as emerging from behaviour and ...

Sylvia Chou, former NIH program director, says “nobody’s OK” after massive disruptions to funding policies and infrastructure.

Stories of science funding being cut, labs shutting down and scientists losing jobs have flooded the media under Trump's administration. These six graphics show how those changes have affected U.S. biomedical research.

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-making and learning. Their results demonstrate that the brain can selectively sample possibilities relevant to current needs.

Recent changes in Genentech’s scientific organization, occurring as the company makes artificial intelligence (AI) increasingly central to its research strategy, highlight a broader question facing bi...

The formation of long-term memory during sleep depends on the reactivation and redistribution of recently acquired mnemonic information during non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep. Animal studies sugge...

Class action lawsuit seeks to stop censorship and termination of federally funded scientific research

Neural manifold properties can help us understand how animal brains deal with complex information, execute flexible behaviors and reuse common computations.

Using a combined approach of monkey electrophysiology, artificial neural networks and human psychophysics, Xue et al. show that neuronal interference from irrelevant information underlies behavioral e...
