Network structure influences the strength of learned neural representations.

From sequences of discrete events, humans build mental models of their world. Referred to as graph learning, the process produces a model encoding the graph of event-to-event transition probabilities. Recent evidence suggests that some networks are easier to learn than others, but the neural underpinnings of this effect remain unknown.

QTL mapping provides new insights into emamectin benzoate resistance in salmon lice, Lepeophtheirus salmonis.

Background: The salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) is a parasite of wild and farmed salmonid fish, causing huge economic damage to the commercial farming of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in the northern hemisphere. The avermectin emamectin benzoate (EMB) is widely used for salmon delousing. While resistance to EMB is widespread in Atlantic populations of L.

Network analysis of α-synuclein pathology progression reveals p21-activated kinases as regulators of vulnerability.

α-Synuclein misfolding and progressive accumulation drives a pathogenic process in Parkinson's disease. To understand cellular and network vulnerability to α-synuclein pathology, we developed a framework to quantify network-level vulnerability and identify new therapeutic targets at the cellular level. Full brain α-synuclein pathology was mapped in mice over 9 months.

Architectural styles of curiosity in global Wikipedia mobile app readership.

Intrinsically motivated information seeking is an expression of curiosity believed to be central to human nature. However, most curiosity research relies on small, Western convenience samples. Here, we analyze a naturalistic population of 482,760 readers using Wikipedia's mobile app in 14 languages from 50 countries or territories.
