    Integrating prediction errors at two time scales permits rapid recalibration of speech sound categories

    Itsaso Olasagasti, Anne-Lise Giraud
    Keeping flexible adaptable representations of speech categories at different time scales allows the brain to maintain stable perception in the face of varying speech sound characteristics.

    Differentiating between integration and non-integration strategies in perceptual decision making

    Gabriel M Stine, Ariel Zylberberg ... Michael N Shadlen
    The determination that a decision-maker integrated evidence to form perceptual decisions is shown to be much more difficult than previously appreciated.

    Heterogeneity of proteome dynamics between connective tissue phases of adult tendon

    Howard Choi, Deborah Simpson ... Chavaunne T Thorpe
    Metabolic labelling reveals complex proteome dynamics in tendon, with faster turnover of proteins in the glycoprotein-rich interfascicular matrix compared to the collagen-rich fascicular matrix.

    A mammalian Wnt5a–Ror2–Vangl2 axis controls the cytoskeleton and confers cellular properties required for alveologenesis

    Kuan Zhang, Erica Yao ... Pao-Tien Chuang
    Regulation of cellular properties such as ligand secretion and migratory ability through changes in the cytoskeleton mediated by a Wnt5a–Ror2–Vangl2 axis is a major determinant of alveolar formation.

    Adult chondrogenesis and spontaneous cartilage repair in the skate, Leucoraja erinacea

    Aleksandra Marconi, Amy Hancock-Ronemus, J Andrew Gillis
    The ability of cartilaginous fishes to generate new cartilage through adulthood, and to spontaneously repair damaged cartilage, could shed light on novel cell-based therapies for cartilage injury in mammals.

    Local emergence in Amazonia of Plasmodium falciparum k13 C580Y mutants associated with in vitro artemisinin resistance

    Luana C Mathieu, Horace Cox ... Lise Musset
    The de novo selection of a mutation responsible for Plasmodium falciparum in vitro artemisinin resistance is confirmed in Guyana, making artemisinin combination therapies vulnerable to complete resistance in this region.

    Polar pattern formation induced by contact following locomotion in a multicellular system

    Masayuki Hayakawa, Tetsuya Hiraiwa ... Tatsuo Shibata
    Transient cell-cell contact of eukaryotic cells, called contact following locomotion, causes cell density segregation, and its high-density region traveled as a band within the disordered background.

    Stress-mediated exit to quiescence restricted by increasing persistence in CDK4/6 activation

    Hee Won Yang, Steven D Cappell ... Tobias Meyer
    Application of a live-cell reporter for CDK4/6 activity reveals rapid activity changes and reversibility in the cell-cycle entry signaling program.

    Caenorhabditis elegans processes sensory information to choose between freeloading and self-defense strategies

    Jodie A Schiffer, Francesco A Servello ... Javier Apfeld
    C. elegans nematodes use a sensory-neuronal circuit to determine whether to defend themselves from hydrogen peroxide attack or to freeload off orthologous protective defenses from bacteria in their surrounding environment.

    Hfq CLASH uncovers sRNA-target interaction networks linked to nutrient availability adaptation

    Ira Alexandra Iosub, Robert Willem van Nues ... Sander Granneman
    High-throughput RNA-RNA interaction analysis uncovers many novel sRNA-target interactions at various growth stages in Escherichia coli.
