Neural representations of beliefs in a multi-dimensional inference task
Patrick Q. Zhang, Michael J. Jutras, Adam J. O. Dede…·Adrienne L. Fairhall
The paper shows that neural activity across multiple brain regions reflects Bayesian belief updating during a multi-dimensional inference task in monkeys.

The Primate Hippocampus Constructs a Temporal Scaffold Anchored to Behavioral Events
Jon W. Rueckemann, Yoni Browning, Autumn J Mallory…·Elizabeth A. Buffalo
This study shows that the primate hippocampus segments experience into discrete events through abrupt population activity shifts, reflecting abstract task structure rather than specific sensory features.

Unsupervised Restoration of a Complex Learned Behavior After Large-Scale Neuronal Perturbation
Bo Wang, Zsofia Török, Alison Duffy…·Carlos Lois
The paper shows that songbirds can recover from large-scale neuronal perturbation through unsupervised homeostatic mechanisms, with songs reverting to normal through saltatory recovery.

Resilience of A Learned Motor Behavior After Chronic Disruption of Inhibitory Circuits
Zsofia Török, Laura Luebbert, Jordan Feldman…·Carlos Lois
This study shows that a learned motor behavior can recover after chronic disruption of inhibitory circuits, with neuronal activity permanently altered but song recovery possible without relying on learning circuits.
