Een brandbrief tegen de bezuinigingen op onderwijs die het kabinet wil doorvoeren, wordt onder meer namens Amsterdam verstuurd. ‘Zeggen dat je voor kansengelijkheid staat, maar intussen kinderen raken...

The European Union is nearly on track to reach its main climate target for this decade, with countries' existing CO2-cutting plans set to bring the bloc within one percentage point of the goal, the European Commission said on Wednesday.

Tuesday, as my lab gathered to celebrate the completion of one of our big studies, the National Institutes of Health announced that they…

Neural activity in sensory cortex is modulated by behavioral and cognitive factors, and this modulation is thought to contribute to the selection o...

Cortical GABAergic interneurons (INs) are comprised of distinct types that provide tailored inhibition to pyramidal cells (PCs) and other INs, thereby enabling precise control of cortical circuit acti...

Using an arcane law, officials have effectively delayed funding from the National Institutes of Health, leaving medical studies in jeopardy.

Humpback whale song is a culturally transmitted behavior. Human language, which is also culturally transmitted, has statistically coherent parts whose frequency distribution follows a power law. These...

Look closely at the first two weeks of Donald Trump’s second term and you’ll see something very different than what he wants you to see.

Join Nicole in supporting science and advocating why science matters to our society.

Rey et al. use a naturalistic memory task, in which subjects learn and then recall two different stories involving the same person in different contexts, while recording the activity of individual hip...

Midbrain dopamine neurons are widely assumed to signal a unidimensional value-based prediction error. In this Perspective, Kahnt and Schoenbaum overview accumulating evidence that challenges this assu...

Understanding how the brain works has been a formidable challenge in neuroscience, but advances at the computational level are now driving us closer. This perspective discusses core concepts of neural encoding and decoding and how moving toward causal modeling can enable translational and foundational insights into the neural code.

The brain uses different valuation schemes across contexts. Elston and Wallis show this is supported by hippocampal encoding of context that is broadcast to prefrontal value subcircuits via theta sync...

Badre, Frank, and Moore argue that active, bidirectional interaction between animal and human studies is essential for understanding the human brain. They propose three actionable strategies for successful interactionist neuroscience.

Common organizational principles of spatial and temporal information processing are not fully understood. This study shows that the duration coding of brief visual events transforms along the human co...
