Highlights

  • Seeing movement

    Inhibitory feedback from GABAergic interneurons C2 and C3 is tied to neural computation of moving visual stimuli in Drosophila.

    Miriam Henning, Madhura D Ketkar ... Marion Silies
    Research Article

  • Testing the blood-brain barrier

    pdgfrb knockout zebrafish, which lack mural cells in their neurovasculature, retain restrictive permeability of the blood-brain barrier during developmental stages.

    Oguzhan F Baltaci, Andrea Usseglio Gaudi ... Benjamin M Hogan
    Research Article

  • Making of the microenvironment

    Single-cell sequencing and multi-omics approaches reveal the influence of BRCA1/2 mutations on the tumor microenvironment in lung adenocarcinoma.

    Gaoming Liao, Xinbin Yang ... Gang Xu
    Research Article

  • Publish-review-curate at eLife

    eLife is rethinking how research is reviewed and published.

  • Science under threat

    How should the scientific community respond to ideological attacks on science?

    Humberto J Debat
    Feature Article

  • How to respond to peer reviewers

    Responding to peer reviews is a crucial part of publishing, but early-career researchers are rarely taught about it.

    Eric Kalkhoven, Manon Kluijtmans
    Feature Article
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.

Patrick Allard, UCLA and eLife author
