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.

This study investigates how VTA dopamine neuron activity shapes stimulus and action value representations in the striatum through conditioned reinforcement in mice.

Mice infer stimulus-side priors from recent choices; prior signals are decodable pre-stimulus in 24.0% to 30.2% of 242 brain regions, including early visual and motor areas.

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.

The paper shows that mice with ASD-related mutations exhibit similar computational and neural anomalies in prior updating during decision-making.

This study evaluates the reproducibility of electrophysiological measurements across ten labs using standardized protocols and finds that variability in electrode targeting and statistical methods affects reproducibility.

The paper shows that pre-existing visual responses in dopamine terminals predict individual learning trajectories in mice during a visual task.

The paper introduces two public websites for exploring large-scale electrophysiology data from the International Brain Laboratory, enabling cross-platform access to behavioral trials and neuronal data.

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

The paper develops a workflow to accurately localize electrodes in Neuropixels probes across multiple brains using imaging and electrophysiological data.

This paper develops a standardized task for measuring decision-making in mice, showing reproducible results across multiple laboratories and providing a public dataset and tools.
