Dorsal anterior cingulate: a Rorschach test for cognitive neuroscience
Nature Neuroscience 19, 1278 (2016). doi:10.1038/nn.4387 Authors: R Becket Ebitz & Benjamin Yost Hayden The dorsal anterior cingulate cortex is one of the most beguiling regions of the brain. Understanding its essential function has become a holy grail for many cognitive neuroscientists. With this scrutiny has come contention. In this issue, two teams of neuroscientists with different views argue for their favored interpretation of neural activity in this region. Here, we provide some background and context for this debate. (Source: Nature Neuroscience)

A useful code for sequences
Nature Neuroscience 19, 1276 (2016). doi:10.1038/nn.4391 Author: Nikolai Axmacher A neural code for sequences needs to allow the recruitment of plasticity mechanisms that link successive items. New results suggest that this is achieved by coupling gamma band activity to specific phases of theta oscillations. (Source: Nature Neuroscience)

Too bored to stay awake
Nature Neuroscience 19, 1274 (2016). doi:10.1038/nn.4383 Authors: Michael Happ & Michael M Halassa While the relationship between motivation and sleep is intuitive, its behavioral and neural features are poorly understood. A new study tackles both issues, showing that dopaminergic neurons in the ventral tegmental area mediate this relationship. (Source: Nature Neuroscience)

Life and death rest on a bivalent chromatin state
Nature Neuroscience 19, 1271 (2016). doi:10.1038/nn.4396 Author: X William Yang Neurons require lifelong maintenance of their transcriptional program, which includes stable expression of cell-type-specific identity genes. A study now shows that PRC2-mediated chromatin repression in adulthood is critical for the maintenance of neuronal identity gene expression and neuronal survival. (Source: Nature Neuroscience)
