New morphological data of a primitive placoderm fish demonstrate both high regionalization of squamation and the bipartite histological structure of scale are plesiomorphic for jawed vertebrates.

METTL18 methylates histidine 245 of ribosomal protein RPL3, retards ribosome traversal at tyrosine codons, and thus ensures nascent protein folding for proteostasis maintenance.

A modified viral strategy reveals that ventral tegmental area dopamine cells receive substantial inputs from local sources, including distributed GABAergic and serotonergic inputs from the midbrain as well as extensive inputs from other midbrain dopamine cells.

When conducting fear conditioning in mice, cue-elicited activity bursts are primarily a result of nonassociative processes, and freezing behavior remains the best index for associative learning.

SoxB genes are sequentially expressed in cnidarian neurogenesis.

The reduction of bicarbonate secretion into the airways reproduces cystic fibrosis-like features, independently of chloride secretion.

Phenotypic variants that avoid antibiotic accumulation within clonal bacterial populations are a significant contributor to antibiotic treatment failure and can rely on previously unrecognised survival strategies such as fast growth during drug treatment.

Anatomical and synaptic reconstructions of gustatory axons from the adult Drosophila labellum reveal different classes of gustatory neurons recognizing different taste modalities.

Individuals within the autism spectrum disorder implicitly outweigh integration (rather than segregating) when performing causal inference and have developed an explicit compensatory mechanism as reflected in choice biases.

Loss of Dnmt3a in excitatory neurons disrupts synaptic morphology and behavior, and triggers the expansion of H3K27me3 binding, suggestive of increased polycomb repression.
