Highlights

  • ITP signaling and homeostasis

    The ion transport peptide (ITP) signaling system relies on a guanylate cyclase receptor to maintain homeostasis in Drosophila.

  • Modelling archaeal membranes

    Archaea use single-headed and double-headed lipids to construct cell membranes that are both flexible and capable of withstanding extreme environments.

  • Focus Issue: Trained Immunity

    The articles in this focus issue discuss progress towards a better understanding of memory in the innate immune system, and efforts to develop new vaccines and therapeutics based on “trained immunity”.

    Collection

  • How we understand each other

    eLife author Joe Barnby answers questions about a study that explored how humans navigate social interactions.

    Inside eLife

  • No change for astroctyes

    Genetically removing the RNA-binding protein PTBP1 from astrocytes does not convert them into neurons, contrary to previous claims.

    Reviewed Preprint Updated
We liked the idea of having an open 'conversation' with the reviewers during the process, and having the chance to polish the manuscript by following the editors and reviewers’ recommendations without the threat of rejection.

    Cross-species standardised cortico-subcortical tractography

    Stephania Assimopoulos, Shaun Warrington ... Stamatios N Sotiropoulos
    By providing new ways to map cortico-subcortical connectivity patterns, the proposed cross-species tractography approaches directly allow novel comparative studies between the human and macaque brain and enable subsequent explorations of brain-behaviour/disease symptom associations across individuals.

    Pablo Ruiz Cuenca, Fábio N Souza ... Emanuele Giorgi
    Step selection functions are a useful tool for analysing fine-scale human movements to understand environmental interactions in the context of infectious disease epidemiology.
