    Modeling flexible behavior with remapping-based hippocampal sequence learning

    Yoshiki Ito, Taro Toyoizumi
    A biologically plausible reinforcement learning model that integrates associative memory and hippocampal remapping explains context-dependent flexible behavior, neural dynamics, and psychosis-related symptoms.

    Physiological febrile heat stress increases cytoadhesion through increased protein trafficking of Plasmodium falciparum surface proteins into the red blood cell

    David Jones, Hugo Belda ... Moritz Treeck
    Fever, often seen as protective, accelerates protein export to surfaces of malaria-infected RBCs, increasing adhesion linked to disease severity.

    Endogenous corazonin signaling modulates the post-mating switch in behavior and physiology in females of the brown planthopper and Drosophila

    Ning Zhang, Shao-Cong Su ... Shun-Fan Wu
    Endogenous corazonin signaling is a conserved female-driven regulator of the post-mating response in insects.

    HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein modulates CXCR4 clustering and dynamics on the T cell membrane

    Adriana Quijada-Freire, César A Santiago ... Mario Mellado
    HIV-1 remodels the spatial organization of its co-receptor, CXCR4, on T cell membranes, showing that viral entry requires receptor clustering rather than simple receptor binding.

    Cortical motor activity modulates respiration and reduces apnoea in neonates

    Coen S Zandvoort, Fatima Usman ... Caroline Hartley
    Communication between the cortex and respiration, known as cortico-respiratory coupling, occurs in newborn infants and relates to apnoea rate.

    Drift in individual behavioral phenotype as a strategy for unpredictable worlds

    Ryan T Maloney, Athena Q Ye ... Benjamin L de Bivort
    Individual flies have idiosyncratic preferences that shift over their lifetime in a way that depends on genotype and may be adaptive to rapidly changing environmental pressures.

    Regime shift detection and neurocomputational substrates for under and overreactions to change

    Mu-Chen Wang, George Wu, Shih-Wei Wu
    In a stylized regime-shift detection task, human fMRI evidence shows that under- and overreactions to change arise from dissociable contributions of the frontoparietal network and ventromedial prefrontal cortex.

    Cross-modal interaction of human alpha activity does not reflect inhibition of early sensory processing in a frequency-tagging study using EEG and MEG

    Marion Brickwedde, Rupali Limachya ... Ali Mazaheri
    Early visual alpha oscillations correlate on a trial-by-trial basis with steady-state responses at later stages of the processing stream, implying a role in signal enhancement and interareal communication.

    Recombination shapes the diversification of the wtf meiotic drivers

    Yan Wang, Hao Xu ... Guan-Zhu Han
    wtf genes, a poison-antidote meiotic driver, underwent recurrent and intricate recombination, which likely generates new meiotic drivers.

    Age-dependent H3K9 trimethylation by dSetdb1 impairs mitochondrial UPR leading to degeneration of olfactory neurons and loss of olfactory function in Drosophila

    Francisco Muñoz-Carvajal, Nicole Sanhueza ... Felipe A Court
    Age-related epigenetic regulation of mitochondrial stress responses drives neuronal degeneration and sensory decline, highlighting mitochondrial resilience as a potential target to preserve brain function during aging.
