Age-related changes in behavioural and neural variability in a decision-making task

This study examines age-related changes in neural and behavioural variability during a decision-making task in mice, finding increased neural variability and reduced variability quenching in specific brain regions.

A Brain-Wide Map of Neural Activity during Complex Behaviour

The paper presents a brain-wide neural activity map from 621,733 neurons across 139 mice performing a decision-making task, showing how neural activity encodes task variables across brain regions.

Lightning Pose: improved animal pose estimation via semi-supervised learning, Bayesian ensembling, and cloud-native open-source tools

Bypassing spike sorting: Density-based decoding using spike localization from dense multielectrode probes

This paper introduces a spike sorting-free decoding method using density-based modeling to improve neural decoding performance without explicitly clustering spikes.

Data architecture for a large-scale neuroscience collaboration

The paper describes a modular data architecture for a neuroscience collaboration, enabling data contribution, access, and analysis across multiple labs.
