          Autism’s Language Path: Beyond Traditional Joint Attention

          Joint attention, where a person's attention is drawn to an object someone else is looking at, is fundamental to typical language acquisition. However, a comprehensive meta-analysis of 71 studies suggests that individuals with autism might learn language differently.

          Live Imaging Reveals Axon Adaptability in Neuroplasticity

          For the first time, researchers observed nerve plasticity within the axon in real-time. This adaptability focuses on the axon initial segment (AIS), a vital nerve cell component initiating electrical signals.

          Mice in Maze Shed New Light on Rodent Learning and Cognition

          Researchers have delved deeper into mouse behavior, challenging previous assumptions about their cognitive strategies in reward-based learning tasks. While humans efficiently adopt the "win-stay, lose-shift" approach in "reversal learning" activities, mice were observed to blend this with an exploratory strategy.

          LTP Theory of Learning and Memory Challenged

          Researchers overturned three decades of scientific consensus about the role of LTP (Long-Term Potentiation) in memory and learning. The team discovered that it's not the enzymatic actions of CaMKII that are needed for LTP, but its structural functions.

          Dopamine’s Role in Unrewarded Learning

          Researchers uncovered that dopamine, the “feel-good” hormone typically associated with rewards, plays a vital role in learning even without immediate incentives. The study discovered that dopamine and acetylcholine, both crucial for memory and learning, maintain a dynamic balance in the brain irrespective of external rewards.

          Stealing a Brain Hack: Exploration vs Urgency Shapes Memory and Learning

          Researchers showed that when participants imagined themselves as art thieves scouting a virtual museum for a future heist, they had a better memory of the paintings they observed than those imagining executing an immediate heist. This difference between exploratory and urgent mindsets could have implications for framing challenges such as vaccine promotion or climate action.
