Live imaging analyses in budding yeast reveal that calorie restriction and overexpression of the mRNA binding protein Ssd1 both block deleterious age-dependent iron uptake as a mechanism to extend lifespan.

fMRI and MEG results in adults and children show encoding of abstract geometric regularities in dorsal-parietal, temporal, and frontal regions, pointing to a system for symbolic geometric representation in humans.
Single-molecule tracking of transcription factors in living cells revealed how mutations that make short activation domains stronger increased the fraction of transcription factor molecules bound to chromatin and led to longer residence times on chromatin.
An affinity-guided chemical strategy enabling highly specific biotinylation of P2X7 receptors reveals, by super-resolution microscopy, how the nanoscale organization of endogenous P2X7 in BV2 microglial cells dynamically changes upon activation.

Drosophila internal male reproductive organs exhibit parallel innervation by two types of multi-transmitter neurons, a subset of which are essential for fertility, and organ-specific spatially discrete neurotransmitter receptor expression.
A low-dimensional voice latent space derived from deep learning captures speaker-identity representations in the temporal voice areas and supports reconstruction of voices preserving identity information.
