TL;DR: Closed-loop DBS paradigms, by modulating pathological oscillatory activity rather than the discharge rate of the BG-cortical networks, may afford more effective management of advanced PD.

Midbrain dopaminergic neurons and striatal cholinergic interneurons encode the difference between reward and aversive events at different epochs of probabilistic classical conditioning trials.
TL;DR: Both DANs and TANs were more strongly modulated by reward than by aversive related events and better reflected the probability of reward than aversive outcome, which indicates that TAN's can broaden the basal ganglia reinforcement teaching signal, for instance by encoding worse than predicted events.

Analyzing octopus movements using three-dimensional reconstruction.
TL;DR: This work describes a semiautomatic computerized system for 3D reconstruction of an octopus arm during motion and uses this system successfully to reconstruct different types ofOctopus arm movements, such as reaching and bend initiation movements.
A noninvasive, fast and inexpensive tool for the detection of eye open/closed state in primates.
TL;DR: A tool incorporating a standard digital camera and a semi-automatic eye state detection (ESD) algorithm that can be used easily in typical primate electrophysiological setups and can be applied to other physiological areas of research in which changes in eye state are critical to analyzing neuronal activity.

TL;DR: Changes in GPe and GPi discharge properties were positively correlated, suggesting that the subthalamic nucleus and/or the striatum constitute the main common driving force for both pallidal segments, and the early, unexpected changes in the pallidum are better explained by a subcortical rather than a cortical loop through the BG.
