Stories
Curated long-form views that follow a question across the atlas — same canonical axes, multiple papers, both choice and process-level evidence where available. Each story embeds the relevant findings and fits so you can read the punchline without opening a paper.

Visual contrast family map
The atlas's deepest family becomes a visual coverage map: notable papers, protocols, source-data depth, findings, slices, and model-selection ambiguity in one scan.

Cross-species random-dot motion
Classic macaque RDM, human reaction-time RDM, and macaque confidence-wagering RDM live on one canonical signed-coherence axis. DDM fits give a single drift parameter to read off across species — and the spread is bigger than you'd expect.

Prior conditioning shifts the psychometric, not the slope
IBL biases mouse choice via three-block left-prior schedules; Walsh 2024 biases human choice with trial-by-trial valid/neutral/invalid cues. Both predict μ moves and σ stays put. The atlas measures both directly.
