Entrainment of prefrontal theta synchrony increases interbrain coupling and enhances social interaction in mouse models of autism
Optogenetic entrainment of theta synchrony was accompanied by increased interbrain coupling and social interaction in male Shank2-/- and Tbr1+/K228E mutant mice, two well-established genetic models of autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

When tigers are not animals: The neural disappearance of animacy as a function of linguistic structure
Regardless of how animacy was operationalized (as discrete semantic categories or more abstractly), the same pattern emerged: When word-level animacy conflicted with the structural context, it disappeared from the word's neural representation.

Abstract representation in the hippocampus predicts spontaneously adopted structure-based behavioral strategy
Together, our findings suggest that the hippocampus spontaneously extracts abstract task structure through learning and that the geometry of hippocampal representations predicts problem-solving strategies.

Cracking the predictive stability code: dual trial-by-trial spatio-temporo-spectral dynamics of task representation directional tuning by Bayesian conflict expectations
LWPC-induced proactive stability follows a "Target-first" policy, primarily strengthening the Target early post-stimulus via Alpha and lower-Beta patterns, weakening Distractor encoding only later on; conversely, ISPC-induced predictive reactive stability follows a "Distractor-first" policy, rapidly weakening Distractor encoding via response-locked posterior Beta patterns, strengthening the Target only downstream.

Beyond the session: delayed effects of prefrontal theta-burst stimulation onthe liking of newly learned melodies
These results indicate that TMS to the left DLPFC can produce delayed, condition-dependent shifts in musical liking without a parallel change in early skill acquisition.
