Neural and behavioral reinstatement jointly reflect retrieval of narrative events

When people recall a movie, their eye movements and brain activity resemble those observed during the viewing. These behavioral and neural reactivations are linked through a common process, likely reflecting the specific internal experiences that emerge in an instance of recall.

Movie-watching evokes ripple-like activity within events and at event boundaries

The neural processes involved in memory formation for realistic experiences remain poorly understood. Here, the authors found that ripple-like activity in the human hippocampus and neocortex tracks key moments during movie watching and predicts which events are later remembered.

The brain hierarchically represents the past and future during multistep anticipation

Memories for event sequences are represented hierarchically in the brain, with further-reaching representations of both the past and future in higher-order brain areas. In the hippocampus, these representations support prediction of future events.

Testing the limits of natural language models for predicting human language judgements

With the advances in neural language models, the question arises if some models align better with human processing than others. Golan et al. identify sentences that language models disagree about and use them to compare the shortcomings of different language models.

Remembering together

What is the connection between the curated narrative of a society and the representations of memories in the individual brains of its members? In a new study, Gagnepain and colleagues show that the organization of memories in the brain reflects the structure of a culture’s shared discourse.

Genetic sharing and heritability of paediatric age of onset autoimmune diseases

Autoimmune diseases are genetically complex disorders that affect up to 10% of the Western population. Here Li et al. quantify the heritability of a range of autoimmune diseases in the largest paediatric cohort examined to date, illustrating that genetic and non-genetic components variably contribute to the susceptibility of each disease.

Shared memories reveal shared structure in neural activity across individuals

The authors demonstrate that activity patterns in the default network during unguided spoken recollection of real-world events were similar between individuals recalling the same specific events. Patterns were altered between perception and recall in a systematic manner across brains. These results reveal a common spatial organization for memory representations.

Genome-wide meta-analysis increases to 71 the number of confirmed Crohn's disease susceptibility loci

Miles Parkes and colleagues report results of a large genome-wide association meta-analysis and replication study for Crohn's disease. They identify 30 new susceptibility loci for this inflammatory bowel disease and implicate several interesting candidate genes in disease pathogenesis.

Meta-analysis identifies 29 additional ulcerative colitis risk loci, increasing the number of confirmed associations to 47

John Rioux and colleagues report results of a large genome-wide association meta-analysis and follow-up study of ulcerative colitis. They identify 29 new risk loci for this inflammatory disease and show that many risk loci are shared between ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease.

IBD risk loci are enriched in multigenic regulatory modules encompassing putative causative genes

Most of the more than 200 known genetic risk loci for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) reside in regulatory regions. Here, the authors provide eQTL datasets for six circulating immune cell types and ileal, colonic and rectal biopsies to map regulatory modules and identify potential causative genes for IBD.

High-density mapping of the MHC identifies a shared role for HLA-DRB1*01:03 in inflammatory bowel diseases and heterozygous advantage in ulcerative colitis

John Rioux, Andre Franke, Tom Karlsen and colleagues perform a fine-mapping study of the HLA region in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. They identify a primary role for HLA-DRB1*01:03 in both diseases and find evidence of heterozygous advantage in protection against ulcerative colitis.
