    A unified view of low complexity regions (LCRs) across species

    Byron Lee, Nima Jaberi-Lashkari, Eliezer Calo
    Disparate functions of low complexity regions of proteins can be understood through a global view of their sequences, features, and relationships across different organisms and biological contexts.

    A global view of the aspiring physician-scientist

    Christopher S Williams, W Kimryn Rathmell ... Mone Zaidi
    Challenges faced by the declining global workforce of young physician-scientists are highlighted, and a unified view on how to revive and reinvigorate this critical pool of dual-trained physicians worldwide is provided.

    Controllability boosts neural and cognitive signatures of changes-of-mind in uncertain environments

    Marion Rouault, Aurélien Weiss ... Valentin Wyart
    Task controllability manipulations reveal that information seeking is associated with reduced confidence and active hypothesis testing, as well as stronger neurophysiological correlates of attention and arousal.

    Eco-evolutionary dynamics of clonal multicellular life cycles

    Vanessa Ress, Arne Traulsen, Yuriy Pichugin
    The evolution of clonal multicellular life cycles, whose growth is constrained by competition, may lead to coexistence or multistability between several life cycles while evolutionarily stable strategies can be inferred from the analysis of a model with unconstrained growth.

    Estimation and worldwide monitoring of the effective reproductive number of SARS-CoV-2

    Jana S Huisman, Jérémie Scire ... Tanja Stadler
    A new and throughly validated method for timely estimation of the effective reproductive number of SARS-CoV-2 aided in the public health response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

    Design of an optimal combination therapy with broadly neutralizing antibodies to suppress HIV-1

    Colin LaMont, Jakub Otwinowski ... Armita Nourmohammad
    Computational evolutionary model to predict the efficacy of broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) in suppressing HIV and to design optimal combination therapy with bNAbs.

    The number of cytokinesis nodes in mitotic fission yeast scales with cell size

    Wasim A Sayyad, Thomas D Pollard
    Fission yeasts cells have about 190 cytokinesis nodes in a broad band at the equator which scales with cell size and most but not all nodes condense into the contractile ring.

    Time-resolved parameterization of aperiodic and periodic brain activity

    Luc Edward Wilson, Jason da Silva Castanheira, Sylvain Baillet
    The new method and reported findings address a growing interest in neuroscience for research tools that can reliably decompose brain activity at the mesoscopic scale into interpretable components.

    The C. elegans gonadal sheath Sh1 cells extend asymmetrically over a differentiating germ cell population in the proliferative zone

    Xin Li, Noor Singh ... Kacy Lynn Gordon
    As Caenorhabditis elegans adult hermaphrodite germ cells leave the stem cell niche, they associate with a pair of somatic gonad cells that were thought to be symmetrical, but that actually take on dramatically different positions in the organ.

    Neural synchronization is strongest to the spectral flux of slow music and depends on familiarity and beat salience

    Kristin Weineck, Olivia Xin Wen, Molly J Henry
    Two different analysis approaches for measuring neural synchronization to natural music revealed strongest synchronization to musical spectral flux as opposed to the more commonly used amplitude envelope.
