Very much looking forward to the talks-and-discussion today around linking brain & behaviour, with Prof. Susan Healy and Prof. Robert Barton 🧠🦜🐒🐭🤩! It's on Crowdcast www.crowdcast.io/c/linking-br... –everyone welcome to come on stage and discuss. Thanks to @worldwideneuro.bsky.social for hosting us.

Even at the highest levels of cortex, there is some independence between the cerebral hemispheres requiring their coordination. Redundant, weakly connected prefrontal hemispheres balance precision and capacity in spatial working memory www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... #neuroscience

biorxiv.orgRedundant, weakly connected prefrontal hemispheres balance precision and capacity in spatial working memoryHow the prefrontal hemispheres coordinate to adapt to spatial working memory (WM) demands remains an open question. Recently, two models have been proposed: A specialized model, where each hemisphere governs contralateral behavior, and a redundant model, where both hemispheres equally guide behavior in the full visual space. To explore these alternatives, we analyzed simultaneous bilateral prefrontal cortex recordings from three macaque monkeys performing a visuo-spatial WM task. Each hemisphere represented targets across the full visual field and equally predicted behavioral imprecisions. Furthermore, memory errors were weakly correlated between hemispheres, suggesting that redundant, weakly coupled prefrontal hemispheres support spatial WM. Attractor model simulations showed that the hemispheric redundancy improved precision in simple tasks, whereas weak inter-hemispheric coupling allowed for specialized hemispheres in complex tasks. This interhemispheric architecture reconciles previous findings thought to support distinct models into a unified architecture, providing a versatile interhemispheric architecture that adapts to varying cognitive demands. ### Competing Interest Statement The authors have declared no competing interest.

Exciting new work by @kentaro-miyamoto.bsky.social on how we can use our own metacognition to understand some, but not all ,other people!

An opportunity to work with the splendid Daniel Yon (and his acolytes, including me).

Many, many years of hard work by Atsushi Fujimoto and Catherine Elorette and our awake behaving NHP study is finally seeing the light of day. All work done in collaboration with @russbeneuro.bsky.social at NKI.

We use data on over 1500 implemented climate policies over the past 25 years and identify 63 instances of very successful, structural reductions in carbon emissions. Each one of those instances is something to celebrate and they show: society is capable of rapid change.

Reduced confidence associated with aging increases information seeking under uncertainty, whereas confidence alterations associated with symptoms of psychopathology do not. Out now w/ Greta Mohr & @robince.bsky.social. #neuroskyence #compneuro #PsychSciSky: rdcu.be/dSPdz
