    Synchronous activity patterns in the dentate gyrus during immobility

    Martin Pofahl, Negar Nikbakht ... Heinz Beck
    Two-photon in vivo calcium imaging reveals short time-scale, synchronous and sparse population activity in dentate gyrus that replays place-related information, and is important for formation of dentate-dependent spatial memory.

    Social groups buffer maternal loss in mountain gorillas

    Robin E Morrison, Winnie Eckardt ... Tara S Stoinski
    In mountain gorillas, as in certain human populations, relationships between group members can act as a social buffer, breaking the link between maternal loss, increased social adversity, and decreased fitness.

    Prolonging the integrated stress response enhances CNS remyelination in an inflammatory environment

    Yanan Chen, Rejani B Kunjamma ... Brian Popko
    Oligodendrocytes with an enhanced ability to withstand cytotoxic stress display an increased capacity to remyelinate demyelination lesions of the CNS in the presence of an inflammatory environment.

    Diversity and asynchrony in soil microbial communities stabilizes ecosystem functioning

    Cameron Wagg, Yann Hautier ... Marcel GA van der Heijden
    Soil microbial diversity loss destabilizes the ability of the soil to function because greater diversity is needed to maintain temporal and functional asynchrony among different microbes.

    Convalescent COVID-19 patients are susceptible to endothelial dysfunction due to persistent immune activation

    Florence WJ Chioh, Siew-Wai Fong ... Christine Cheung
    COVID-19 survivors, who are at risk for vascular complications, would benefit from close monitoring and preventive therapy.

    Time-resolved serial femtosecond crystallography reveals early structural changes in channelrhodopsin

    Kazumasa Oda, Takashi Nomura ... Osamu Nureki
    Time-resolved serial femtosecond crystallography revealed retinal kink and early changes in channelrhodopsin, which leads to the ion pore formation.
