Re-evaluating circuit mechanisms underlying pattern separation
NA Cayco-Gajic, RA Silver - Neuron, 2019 - cell.com
When animals interact with complex environments, their neural circuits must separate
overlapping patterns of activity that represent sensory and motor information. Pattern …

Magnitude knowledge: The common core of numerical development
RS Siegler - Developmental science, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
The integrated theory of numerical development posits that a central theme of numerical
development from infancy to adulthood is progressive broadening of the types and ranges of …

What insects can tell us about the origins of consciousness
How, why, and when consciousness evolved remain hotly debated topics. Addressing these
issues requires considering the distribution of consciousness across the animal …

Complete connectomic reconstruction of olfactory projection neurons in the fly brain
Nervous systems contain sensory neurons, local neurons, projection neurons, and motor
neurons. To understand how these building blocks form whole circuits, we must distil these …

Information flow, cell types and stereotypy in a full olfactory connectome
The hemibrain connectome provides large-scale connectivity and morphology information
for the majority of the central brain of Drosophila melanogaster. Using this data set, we …

Activity of defined mushroom body output neurons underlies learned olfactory behavior in Drosophila
During olfactory learning in fruit flies, dopaminergic neurons assign value to odor
representations in the mushroom body Kenyon cells. Here we identify a class of downstream …

Numerical development
RS Siegler, DW Braithwaite - Annual review of psychology, 2017 - annualreviews.org
In this review, we attempt to integrate two crucial aspects of numerical development:
learning the magnitudes of individual numbers and learning arithmetic. Numerical …

Neurogenetic dissection of the Drosophila lateral horn reveals major outputs, diverse behavioural functions, and interactions with the mushroom body
Animals exhibit innate behaviours to a variety of sensory stimuli including olfactory cues. In
Drosophila, one higher olfactory centre, the lateral horn (LH), is implicated in innate …

Drosophila mushroom bodies integrate hunger and satiety signals to control innate food-seeking behavior
The fruit fly can evaluate its energy state and decide whether to pursue food-related cues.
Here, we reveal that the mushroom body (MB) integrates hunger and satiety signals to …

Neural correlates of water reward in thirsty Drosophila
Drinking water is innately rewarding to thirsty animals. In addition, the consumed value can
be assigned to behavioral actions and predictive sensory cues by associative learning. Here …
