    Revealing global stoichiometry conservation architecture in cells from Raman spectral patterns

    Ken-ichiro F Kamei, Koseki J Kobayashi-Kirschvink ... Yuichi Wakamoto
    Conservation levels of gene expression abundance ratios are globally coordinated in cells, and cellular state changes under such biologically relevant stoichiometric constraints are readable as low-dimensional changes in Raman spectra.

    Synaptotagmin 1 and Synaptotagmin 7 promote MR1-mediated presentation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigens

    Se-Jin Kim, Jessie C Peterson ... David Lewinsohn
    Synaptotagmin 1 and Synaptotagmin 7 promote MAIT cell activation during Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection by facilitating MR1 trafficking and antigen presentation.

    Enhanced bacterial chemotaxis in confined microchannels occurs at lane widths matching circular swimming radius

    Caijuan Yue, Chi Zhang ... Junhua Yuan
    Geometric confinement paradoxically enhances bacterial chemotaxis through chiral surface swimming and sidewall alignment, with optimal performance when lane width matches the circular swimming radius.

    Fear conditioning biases olfactory sensory neuron frequencies across generations

    Clara W Liff, Yasmine R Ayman ... Bianca J Marlin
    Olfactory fear conditioning biases olfactory stem cell receptor fate, increasing the frequency by which maturing neurons express the receptor of the paired odor and changing the representation of the olfactory sensory neuron landscape in the next generation.

    Audiovisual cues must be predictable and win-paired to drive risky choice

    Brett A Hathaway, Dexter R Kim ... Catharine Winstanley
    Sensory cues increase risky choice when paired with wins but reduce risky choice when paired with losses, with parallel shifts in sensitivity to negative outcomes.

    Individuality across environmental context in Drosophila melanogaster

    Thomas F Mathejczyk, Cara Knief ... Gerit A Linneweber
    Environmental differences alter behavioral performance in Drosophila melanogaster without eliminating consistent individual differences.

    Contrasting roles for IKK-regulated inflammatory signalling pathways for development and maintenance of type 1 and adaptive γδ T cells

    Farjana Islam, Cayman Williams ... Benedict Seddon
    Inhibitor of κB kinase signalling differentially controls development and survival of γδ T cell subsets through nuclear factor-κB activation and repression of receptor-interacting protein kinase 1-driven necroptosis, revealing distinct inflammatory signalling requirements from αβ T cells.

    Principles of gamma synchrony predict figure–ground perception in texture stimuli

    Maryam Karimian, Mark Jonathan Roberts ... Mario Senden
    Principles of weakly coupled oscillators capture human figure-ground segregation and its training-induced enhancement, indicating gamma synchrony remains a plausible grouping mechanism.
    1. Neuroscience

    Stimulus dependencies—rather than next-word prediction—can explain pre-onset brain encoding in naturalistic listening designs

    Inés Schönmann, Jakub Szewczyk ... Micha Heilbron
    The ability to predict brain activity from words before they occur can be explained by information shared between neighbouring words, without requiring next-word prediction by the brain.
