2. Evaluation Resolution Has Been

This story is about a preprint examining how image resolution can change conclusions about brain-like learning rules in artificial networks. The work compared five conditions, including random initialization, backpropagation, feedback alignment, predictive coding, and STDP, against human fMRI and macaque electrophysiology data in the visual system.

3. Allergy Chemicals Improve Brain

This story is about a Nature Communications study asking what histamine does in human learning. The researchers used pitolisant, a drug that raises brain histamine by blocking the H3 autoreceptor, and studied 52 people across memory, working-memory, and aversive-learning tasks with brain imaging.
