The paper identifies two parallel circuits in the posterior parietal cortex that balance behavioral flexibility and stability during learning.

This paper shows that gradual sensory maturation in humans supports the development of abstract, bias-resistant visual representations, enabling generalization and compositional reconstruction.

The paper shows that intrinsic and task-related neural timescales increase hierarchically across mammalian cortices, but thalamic timescales differ from this pattern.

Hard-wired Gabor filters enable environment-agnostic object recognition without overfitting.

This study identifies Npas4-mediated regulation of Drd4 synthesis in the amygdala that controls the functional states of CS- memory, influencing its retrievability and silence after consolidation.

This paper shows that deep neural networks can spontaneously develop invariant object detection without training, through random feedforward projections.

This study examines neuronal firing patterns in IRSp53-mutant mice during social approach, finding reduced variability and impaired social information encoding in the medial prefrontal cortex.

Untrained deep neural networks spontaneously develop the ability to compare visual quantities using proportion and difference measures.

This study identifies distinct roles of IT and PT neurons in working memory and temporal processing during a delayed response task in mice.

This study shows that number-selective neurons can emerge in untrained deep neural networks, mimicking innate number sense observed in animals.

The paper shows that orthogonal organization of visual tuning maps in V1 originates from structured ON-OFF receptive field patterns in retinal ganglion cell mosaics.

The paper shows that slow rhythmic eye motion correlates with perceptual alternation in bistable perception, predicting timing and direction of perceptual switches.

The paper shows that spontaneous retinal waves drive the development of long-range horizontal connections in the visual cortex through feature-specific wiring.

This study introduces AMaSiNe, a software for automated 3D mapping of single neurons in the mouse brain atlas, demonstrating its ability to map retinotopic structures of neural projections.

The paper shows that sparse long-range connections in visual cortex create small-world networks that enhance object recognition while minimizing wiring costs.

The paper analyzes neural parameters across eight mammalian species to determine if columnar or salt-and-pepper cortical organization arises from species-specific mechanisms or a universal developmental principle, finding the latter.

This study shows face-selective neurons can emerge spontaneously in deep neural networks without training, exhibiting viewpoint-invariant properties similar to those in primates.

The paper proposes that stable and flexible encoding mechanisms in working memory produce serial-position effects through distinct roles in retaining and updating information.

The paper shows simple and complex cells in the visual cortex develop simultaneously from retinal afferents and organize into periodic clusters correlated with orientation maps.

The paper measures subject-specific decision kernels for motion perception and finds they predict performance and optimize when stimulus duration matches kernel size.

The paper proposes a universal developmental mechanism for functional maps in the visual cortex, validated across species and through simulations.
