Central vestibular tuning arises from patterned convergence of otolith afferents
The Bagnall lab finds the complexity of tuning in a vestibular neuron arises from the diversity of inputs it receives, and that this complexity can be predicted from these inputs.

Functional characterization of the dural sinuses as a neuroimmune interface
The Kipnis group describes a mechanism by which patrolling immune cells from the peripheral immune system survey cues about the immune status of the brain that accumulate in the cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the brain.
Values encoded in orbitofrontal cortex are causally related to economic choices
The Padoa-Schioppa lab demonstrates that choices are based on the computation of values of each option.
