lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs02:39

lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs

10.0K
In humans, more than 80% of the genome gets transcribed. However, only around 2% of the genome codes for proteins. The remaining part produces non-coding RNAs which includes ribosomal RNAs, transfer RNAs, telomerase RNAs, and regulatory RNAs, among other types. A large number of regulatory non-coding RNAs have been classified into two groups depending upon their length – small non-coding RNAs, such as microRNA, which are less than 200 nucleotides in length, and long non-coding RNA...

What is Behavior?00:54

What is Behavior?

10.3K
Behaviors are actions that an organism engages in—they can be related to finding food, reproducing, defending against threats, and many other possible actions. Behaviors include activities related to the environment around the animal—such as migration—as well as social interactions within a species or population. Many behaviors involve motor output—that is, muscle movements—while others involve less visible actions, such as learning.

Mate Choice01:20

Mate Choice

11.8K
Mate choice—the decision about whom to mate with—is a type of natural selection, since animals must reproduce to pass down their genes. Mate choice is also called intersexual selection because the behavior occurs between the sexes.

Nursing Code of Ethics01:29

Nursing Code of Ethics

4.6K
The Nursing Code of Ethics sets the ethical benchmark for the profession, and guides nurses in ethical analysis and decision making at the societal, organizational, and clinical levels. The code encompasses showing compassion and respect for the patient, their families, and communities in all circumstances while committing to providing patient-centered care. In addition, the code states that nurses must advocate for the patient by defending a cause or recommendation to protect their rights,...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Computational Neuroscience
  • Decision Science

Background:

  • Neural adaptation is crucial for efficient sensory information processing.
  • Evidence suggests neural value coding adapts to reward history in decision-making areas.
  • The circuit mechanisms and behavioral impact of value adaptation remain unclear.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the circuit mechanisms underlying value adaptation in decision-making.
  • To clarify the link between adaptive value coding and choice behavior.
  • To determine how reward statistics influence decision-making processes.

Main Methods:

  • Studied choice behavior in nonhuman primates under varying reward statistics.
  • Developed a novel multiple timescale dynamical model of value representation.
  • Implemented divisive normalization within the dynamical model.

Main Results:

  • Choice behavior varied significantly with recent reward statistics.
  • Decision-making exhibited increased choice sensitivity in lower reward variance environments.
  • The dynamical model accurately explained adaptation effects and behavioral variability.

Conclusions:

  • Decision-making is a dynamic process influenced by reward history.
  • Divisive normalization is a key computational mechanism for contextual adaptation in choice.
  • Dynamic model architectures can capture environmental distributional characteristics influencing behavior.
