Eye movements are neither necessary nor sufficient to account for the neural effects associated with covert attention.

The placenta plays an important role in how vitamin D is metabolized and supplied to the fetus.

Body-motion sensors can be used to study non-invasively how animals sleep in the wild, opening up exciting opportunities for comparative analyses across species.

New imaging approaches question a long-standing model for how the eyes of fruit flies acquire their geometric patterning.

Associations between plasma protein levels and DNA methylation patterns can be used to predict the onset of age-related chronic disease.

Allowing aquatic organisms to grow in rice fields – a practice called co-culture – increases rice yields while maintaining soil fertility and reducing weeds.

Oxidative stress following a lung injury can alter the structure of collagen, causing it to stiffen and trigger the formation of a fibrotic scar that further hardens the tissue.

A method called functional connectivity mapping helps model some of the complex interactions between multiple ecosystem services.

As a cell prepares to divide, a molecular actor known as the Origin Recognition Complex makes intricate ATP-driven movements to recruit proteins required to duplicate DNA.

Screening for drugs that disrupt embryonic development in zebrafish can help identify treatments that suppress metastasis.
