TL;DR: The results of the spikefinder challenge, launched to catalyze the development of new spike rate inference algorithms through crowd-sourcing, are reported, and the top-performing algorithms are based on a wide range of principles, yet provide highly correlated estimates of the neural activity.
Removal of Spurious Correlations Between Spikes and Local Field Potentials
TL;DR: Overall, these results show that careful preprocessing is necessary to remove spikes from LFP signals, but that when effective spike removal is used, spike-LFP correlations can potentially yield novel insights about brain function.
Enhanced Spatial Resolution During Locomotion and Heightened Attention in Mouse Primary Visual Cortex
TL;DR: Relative gain is higher in cells with preferences for higher spatial frequencies than those with low-spatial-frequency selectivity, which means that, during a state of locomotion and heightened attention, the population activity in primary visual cortex can support better spatial acuity, a phenomenon that parallels the improved spatial resolution observed in human subjects during the allocation of spatial attention.

TL;DR: It is shown that traveling waves in the primate extrastriate visual cortex provide a means of integrating sensory and motor signals in macaque monkeys, and are associated with a reorganization of the postsaccadic neuronal firing patterns.

The role of phacoemulsification in glaucoma therapy: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
TL;DR: Future prospective clinical trials, including other outcomes such as quality of life, clinical severity information, and cost-effectiveness analysis, are needed to determine the role of phacoemulsification alone within the glaucoma treatment algorithm.
