A context-driven memory model simulates a wide range of characteristics of waking and sleeping hippocampal replay, providing a new account of how and why replay occurs.
Exosome-associated THSD7A is identified as a key trigger of filopodia formation in cancer cells and neurons, revealing a novel pathway with implications for metastasis, neuronal connectivity, and other filopodia-dependent processes.
Synthetic ribbon-type active zones are reconstituted in cultured cells using a minimal set of proteins that partially mimic structural and functional features of cochlear inner hair cell active zones.

A large-scale investigation of carnivoran brain diversity, providing a unified description of folding patterns, their relationship to behaviour and ecology, and the foundation for future investigations of carnivoran neuroecology.
Estrogens produced in the teleost brain increase neural sensitivity to testicular androgens by directly stimulating androgen receptor transcription, thereby eliciting male-typical behaviors.
