  text: 'Gene expression is controlled primarily by interactions between transcription
    factor proteins (TFs) and the regulatory DNA sequence, a process that can be captured
    well by thermodynamic models of regulation. These models, however, neglect regulatory
    crosstalk: the possibility that noncognate TFs could initiate transcription, with
    potentially disastrous effects for the cell. Here, we estimate the importance
    of crosstalk, suggest that its avoidance strongly constrains equilibrium models
    of TF binding, and propose an alternative nonequilibrium scheme that implements
    kinetic proofreading to suppress erroneous initiation. This proposal is consistent
    with the observed covalent modifications of the transcriptional apparatus and
    predicts increased noise in gene expression as a trade-off for improved specificity.
    Using information theory, we quantify this trade-off to find when optimal proofreading
    architectures are favored over their equilibrium counterparts. Such architectures
    exhibit significant super-Poisson noise at low expression in steady state.'

  text: Evolution of gene regulation is crucial for our understanding of the phenotypic
    differences between species, populations and individuals. Sequence-specific binding
    of transcription factors to the regulatory regions on the DNA is a key regulatory
    mechanism that determines gene expression and hence heritable phenotypic variation.
    We use a biophysical model for directional selection on gene expression to estimate
    the rates of gain and loss of transcription factor binding sites (TFBS) in finite
    populations under both point and insertion/deletion mutations. Our results show
    that these rates are typically slow for a single TFBS in an isolated DNA region,
    unless the selection is extremely strong. These rates decrease drastically with
    increasing TFBS length or increasingly specific protein-DNA interactions, making
    the evolution of sites longer than ∼ 10 bp unlikely on typical eukaryotic speciation
    timescales. Similarly, evolution converges to the stationary distribution of binding
    sequences very slowly, making the equilibrium assumption questionable. The availability
    of longer regulatory sequences in which multiple binding sites can evolve simultaneously,
    the presence of “pre-sites” or partially decayed old sites in the initial sequence,
    and biophysical cooperativity between transcription factors, can all facilitate
    gain of TFBS and reconcile theoretical calculations with timescales inferred from
    comparative genomics.

  text: Adaptation in the retina is thought to optimize the encoding of natural light
    signals into sequences of spikes sent to the brain. While adaptive changes in
    retinal processing to the variations of the mean luminance level and second-order
    stimulus statistics have been documented before, no such measurements have been
    performed when higher-order moments of the light distribution change. We therefore
    measured the ganglion cell responses in the tiger salamander retina to controlled
    changes in the second (contrast), third (skew) and fourth (kurtosis) moments of
    the light intensity distribution of spatially uniform temporally independent stimuli.
    The skew and kurtosis of the stimuli were chosen to cover the range observed in
    natural scenes. We quantified adaptation in ganglion cells by studying linear-nonlinear
    models that capture well the retinal encoding properties across all stimuli. We
    found that the encoding properties of retinal ganglion cells change only marginally
    when higher-order statistics change, compared to the changes observed in response
    to the variation in contrast. By analyzing optimal coding in LN-type models, we
    showed that neurons can maintain a high information rate without large dynamic
    adaptation to changes in skew or kurtosis. This is because, for uncorrelated stimuli,
    spatio-temporal summation within the receptive field averages away non-gaussian
    aspects of the light intensity distribution.

  text: 'Understanding the dynamics of noisy neurons remains an important challenge
    in neuroscience. Here, we describe a simple probabilistic model that accurately
    describes the firing behavior in a large class (type II) of neurons. To demonstrate
    the usefulness of this model, we show how it accurately predicts the interspike
    interval (ISI) distributions, bursting patterns and mean firing rates found by:
    (1) simulations of the classic Hodgkin-Huxley model with channel noise, (2) experimental
    data from squid giant axon with a noisy input current and (3) experimental data
    on noisy firing from a neuron within the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). This simple
    model has 6 parameters, however, in some cases, two of these parameters are coupled
    and only 5 parameters account for much of the known behavior. From these parameters,
    many properties of spiking can be found through simple calculation. Thus, we show
    how the complex effects of noise can be understood through a simple and general
    probabilistic model.'

  text: 'Information processing in the sensory periphery is shaped by natural stimulus
    statistics. In the periphery, a transmission bottleneck constrains performance;
    thus efficient coding implies that natural signal components with a predictably
    wider range should be compressed. In a different regime—when sampling limitations
    constrain performance—efficient coding implies that more resources should be allocated
    to informative features that are more variable. We propose that this regime is
    relevant for sensory cortex when it extracts complex features from limited numbers
    of sensory samples. To test this prediction, we use central visual processing
    as a model: we show that visual sensitivity for local multi-point spatial correlations,
    described by dozens of independently-measured parameters, can be quantitatively
    predicted from the structure of natural images. This suggests that efficient coding
    applies centrally, where it extends to higher-order sensory features and operates
    in a regime in which sensitivity increases with feature variability.'

  text: 'Biopolymer length regulation is a complex process that involves a large number
    of biological, chemical, and physical subprocesses acting simultaneously across
    multiple spatial and temporal scales. An illustrative example important for genomic
    stability is the length regulation of telomeres - nucleoprotein structures at
    the ends of linear chromosomes consisting of tandemly repeated DNA sequences and
    a specialized set of proteins. Maintenance of telomeres is often facilitated by
    the enzyme telomerase but, particularly in telomerase-free systems, the maintenance
    of chromosomal termini depends on alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) mechanisms
    mediated by recombination. Various linear and circular DNA structures were identified
    to participate in ALT, however, dynamics of the whole process is still poorly
    understood. We propose a chemical kinetics model of ALT with kinetic rates systematically
    derived from the biophysics of DNA diffusion and looping. The reaction system
    is reduced to a coagulation-fragmentation system by quasi-steady-state approximation.
    The detailed treatment of kinetic rates yields explicit formulas for expected
    size distributions of telomeres that demonstrate the key role played by the J
    factor, a quantitative measure of bending of polymers. The results are in agreement
    with experimental data and point out interesting phenomena: an appearance of very
    long telomeric circles if the total telomere density exceeds a critical value
    (excess mass) and a nonlinear response of the telomere size distributions to the
    amount of telomeric DNA in the system. The results can be of general importance
    for understanding dynamics of telomeres in telomerase-independent systems as this
    mode of telomere maintenance is similar to the situation in tumor cells lacking
    telomerase activity. Furthermore, due to its universality, the model may also
    serve as a prototype of an interaction between linear and circular DNA structures
    in various settings.'

  text: 'Summary: Phenotypes are often environmentally dependent, which requires organisms
    to track environmental change. The challenge for organisms is to construct phenotypes
    using the most accurate environmental cue. Here, we use a quantitative genetic
    model of adaptation by additive genetic variance, within- and transgenerational
    plasticity via linear reaction norms and indirect genetic effects respectively.
    We show how the relative influence on the eventual phenotype of these components
    depends on the predictability of environmental change (fast or slow, sinusoidal
    or stochastic) and the developmental lag τ between when the environment is perceived
    and when selection acts. We then decompose expected mean fitness into three components
    (variance load, adaptation and fluctuation load) to study the fitness costs of
    within- and transgenerational plasticity. A strongly negative maternal effect
    coefficient m minimizes the variance load, but a strongly positive m minimises
    the fluctuation load. The adaptation term is maximized closer to zero, with positive
    or negative m preferred under different environmental scenarios. Phenotypic plasticity
    is higher when τ is shorter and when the environment changes frequently between
    seasonal extremes. Expected mean population fitness is highest away from highest
    observed levels of phenotypic plasticity. Within- and transgenerational plasticity
    act in concert to deliver well-adapted phenotypes, which emphasizes the need to
    study both simultaneously when investigating phenotypic evolution.'

  text: In infectious disease epidemiology the basic reproductive ratio, R0, is defined
    as the average number of new infections caused by a single infected individual
    in a fully susceptible population. Many models describing competition for hosts
    between non-interacting pathogen strains in an infinite population lead to the
    conclusion that selection favors invasion of new strains if and only if they have
    higher R0 values than the resident. Here we demonstrate that this picture fails
    in finite populations. Using a simple stochastic SIS model, we show that in general
    there is no analogous optimization principle. We find that successive invasions
    may in some cases lead to strains that infect a smaller fraction of the host population,
    and that mutually invasible pathogen strains exist. In the limit of weak selection
    we demonstrate that an optimization principle does exist, although it differs
    from R0 maximization. For strains with very large R0, we derive an expression
    for this local fitness function and use it to establish a lower bound for the
    error caused by neglecting stochastic effects. Furthermore, we apply this weak
    selection limit to investigate the selection dynamics in the presence of a trade-off
    between the virulence and the transmission rate of a pathogen.

  text: A wealth of experimental evidence suggests that working memory circuits preferentially
    represent information that is behaviorally relevant. Still, we are missing a mechanistic
    account of how these representations come about. Here we provide a simple explanation
    for a range of experimental findings, in light of prefrontal circuits adapting
    to task constraints by reward-dependent learning. In particular, we model a neural
    network shaped by reward-modulated spike-timing dependent plasticity (r-STDP)
    and homeostatic plasticity (intrinsic excitability and synaptic scaling). We show
    that the experimentally-observed neural representations naturally emerge in an
    initially unstructured circuit as it learns to solve several working memory tasks.
    These results point to a critical, and previously unappreciated, role for reward-dependent
    learning in shaping prefrontal cortex activity.

  text: 'We describe a simple adaptive network of coupled chaotic maps. The network
    reaches a stationary state (frozen topology) for all values of the coupling parameter,
    although the dynamics of the maps at the nodes of the network can be nontrivial.
    The structure of the network shows interesting hierarchical properties and in
    certain parameter regions the dynamics is polysynchronous: Nodes can be divided
    in differently synchronized classes but, contrary to cluster synchronization,
    nodes in the same class need not be connected to each other. These complicated
    synchrony patterns have been conjectured to play roles in systems biology and
    circuits. The adaptive system we study describes ways whereby this behavior can
    evolve from undifferentiated nodes.'

  text: Based on the measurements of noise in gene expression performed during the
    past decade, it has become customary to think of gene regulation in terms of a
    two-state model, where the promoter of a gene can stochastically switch between
    an ON and an OFF state. As experiments are becoming increasingly precise and the
    deviations from the two-state model start to be observable, we ask about the experimental
    signatures of complex multistate promoters, as well as the functional consequences
    of this additional complexity. In detail, we i), extend the calculations for noise
    in gene expression to promoters described by state transition diagrams with multiple
    states, ii), systematically compute the experimentally accessible noise characteristics
    for these complex promoters, and iii), use information theory to evaluate the
    channel capacities of complex promoter architectures and compare them with the
    baseline provided by the two-state model. We find that adding internal states
    to the promoter generically decreases channel capacity, except in certain cases,
    three of which (cooperativity, dual-role regulation, promoter cycling) we analyze
    in detail.

  text: 'Maximum entropy models are the least structured probability distributions
    that exactly reproduce a chosen set of statistics measured in an interacting network.
    Here we use this principle to construct probabilistic models which describe the
    correlated spiking activity of populations of up to 120 neurons in the salamander
    retina as it responds to natural movies. Already in groups as small as 10 neurons,
    interactions between spikes can no longer be regarded as small perturbations in
    an otherwise independent system; for 40 or more neurons pairwise interactions
    need to be supplemented by a global interaction that controls the distribution
    of synchrony in the population. Here we show that such “K-pairwise” models—being
    systematic extensions of the previously used pairwise Ising models—provide an
    excellent account of the data. We explore the properties of the neural vocabulary
    by: 1) estimating its entropy, which constrains the population''s capacity to
    represent visual information; 2) classifying activity patterns into a small set
    of metastable collective modes; 3) showing that the neural codeword ensembles
    are extremely inhomogenous; 4) demonstrating that the state of individual neurons
    is highly predictable from the rest of the population, allowing the capacity for
    error correction.'

  text: It has been long argued that, because of inherent ambiguity and noise, the
    brain needs to represent uncertainty in the form of probability distributions.
    The neural encoding of such distributions remains however highly controversial.
    Here we present a novel circuit model for representing multidimensional real-valued
    distributions using a spike based spatio-temporal code. Our model combines the
    computational advantages of the currently competing models for probabilistic codes
    and exhibits realistic neural responses along a variety of classic measures. Furthermore,
    the model highlights the challenges associated with interpreting neural activity
    in relation to behavioral uncertainty and points to alternative population-level
    approaches for the experimental validation of distributed representations.

  text: Redundancies and correlations in the responses of sensory neurons may seem
    to waste neural resources, but they can also carry cues about structured stimuli
    and may help the brain to correct for response errors. To investigate the effect
    of stimulus structure on redundancy in retina, we measured simultaneous responses
    from populations of retinal ganglion cells presented with natural and artificial
    stimuli that varied greatly in correlation structure; these stimuli and recordings
    are publicly available online. Responding to spatio-temporally structured stimuli
    such as natural movies, pairs of ganglion cells were modestly more correlated
    than in response to white noise checkerboards, but they were much less correlated
    than predicted by a non-adapting functional model of retinal response. Meanwhile,
    responding to stimuli with purely spatial correlations, pairs of ganglion cells
    showed increased correlations consistent with a static, non-adapting receptive
    field and nonlinearity. We found that in response to spatio-temporally correlated
    stimuli, ganglion cells had faster temporal kernels and tended to have stronger
    surrounds. These properties of individual cells, along with gain changes that
    opposed changes in effective contrast at the ganglion cell input, largely explained
    the pattern of pairwise correlations across stimuli where receptive field measurements
    were possible.

  text: Transgenerational effects are broader than only parental relationships. Despite
    mounting evidence that multigenerational effects alter phenotypic and life-history
    traits, our understanding of how they combine to determine fitness is not well
    developed because of the added complexity necessary to study them. Here, we derive
    a quantitative genetic model of adaptation to an extraordinary new environment
    by an additive genetic component, phenotypic plasticity, maternal and grandmaternal
    effects. We show how, at equilibrium, negative maternal and negative grandmaternal
    effects maximize expected population mean fitness. We define negative transgenerational
    effects as those that have a negative effect on trait expression in the subsequent
    generation, that is, they slow, or potentially reverse, the expected evolutionary
    dynamic. When maternal effects are positive, negative grandmaternal effects are
    preferred. As expected under Mendelian inheritance, the grandmaternal effects
    have a lower impact on fitness than the maternal effects, but this dual inheritance
    model predicts a more complex relationship between maternal and grandmaternal
    effects to constrain phenotypic variance and so maximize expected population mean
    fitness in the offspring.

  text: Models of neural responses to stimuli with complex spatiotemporal correlation
    structure often assume that neurons are selective for only a small number of linear
    projections of a potentially high-dimensional input. In this review, we explore
    recent modeling approaches where the neural response depends on the quadratic
    form of the input rather than on its linear projection, that is, the neuron is
    sensitive to the local covariance structure of the signal preceding the spike.
    To infer this quadratic dependence in the presence of arbitrary (e.g., naturalistic)
    stimulus distribution, we review several inference methods, focusing in particular
    on two information theory–based approaches (maximization of stimulus energy and
    of noise entropy) and two likelihood-based approaches (Bayesian spike-triggered
    covariance and extensions of generalized linear models). We analyze the formal
    relationship between the likelihood-based and information-based approaches to
    demonstrate how they lead to consistent inference. We demonstrate the practical
    feasibility of these procedures by using model neurons responding to a flickering
    variance stimulus.

  text: "Recent work emphasizes that the maximum entropy principle provides a bridge
    between statistical mechanics models for collective behavior in neural networks
    and experiments on networks of real neurons. Most of this work has focused on
    capturing the measured correlations among pairs of neurons. Here we suggest an
    alternative, constructing models that are consistent with the distribution of
    global network activity, i.e. the probability that K out of N cells in the network
    generate action potentials in the same small time bin. The inverse problem that
    we need to solve in constructing the model is analytically tractable, and provides
    a natural 'thermodynamics' for the network in the limit of large N. We analyze
    the responses of neurons in a small patch of the retina to naturalistic stimuli,
    and find that the implied thermodynamics is very close to an unusual critical
    point, in which the entropy (in proper units) is exactly equal to the energy.
