    Regularities in species’ niches reveal the world’s climate regions

    Joaquín Calatayud, Magnus Neuman ... Martin Rosvall
    Similarities in climatic niches of terrestrial vertebrates indicate the Earth's climate regions, which differ among groups and from previous plant-based climate classifications.

    Microglial trogocytosis and the complement system regulate axonal pruning in vivo

    Tony KY Lim, Edward S Ruthazer
    In vivo time lapse imaging reveals that microglial trogocytosis of presynaptic elements is regulated by the complement system which controls axon morphogenesis in the developing brain.

    Seroconversion stages COVID19 into distinct pathophysiological states

    Matthew D Galbraith, Kohl T Kinning ... Joaquín M Espinosa
    Stratification of COVID19 patients using quantitative metrics of seroconversion reveals distinct pathophysiological stages after SARS-CoV-2 infection, including key differences in immune cell types, inflammatory makers, and markers of organ function.

    The global burden of yellow fever

    Katy AM Gaythorpe, Arran Hamlet ... Neil Ferguson
    Yellow fever, a potentially deadly viral hemorrhagic fever, causes up to 82,000 deaths annually worldwide, and mass vaccination activities have reduced the burden by 47% in Africa.

    Swarming bacteria undergo localized dynamic phase transition to form stress-induced biofilms

    Iago Grobas, Marco Polin, Munehiro Asally
    Collective stress response via localized dynamic phase transition turns swarming Bacillus subtilis into biofilms.

    Adaptation of spontaneous activity in the developing visual cortex

    Marina E Wosniack, Jan H Kirchner ... Julijana Gjorgjieva
    To generate stable and robust connectivity refinements, the amplitude of spontaneous activity events in the developing visual cortex adapts to the recent history of cortical activation.

    NMDA receptors control development of somatosensory callosal axonal projections

    Jing Zhou, Yong Lin ... Samuel J Pleasure
    NMDAR receptors act in regulating axon guidance of somatosensory callosal projections in early postnatal life and the expression of EPHB2 receptors in target cells.

    Specialized contributions of mid-tier stages of dorsal and ventral pathways to stereoscopic processing in macaque

    Toshihide W Yoshioka, Takahiro Doi ... Ichiro Fujita
    Visual area MT signals binocular disparity quickly and robustly, whereas area V4 or its upstream area transforms the nature of the signals to derive a more sophisticated depth representation.
