   Skipping ahead: A circuit for representing the past, present, and future

   Jennifer C Robinson, Mark P Brandon

   A circuit between the hippocampus, nucleus reunions, and prefrontal cortex organizes information about the past, present, and future into alternating theta sequences.

   Y chromosome functions in mammalian spermatogenesis

   Jeremie Subrini, James Turner

   The mammalian Y chromosome has become specialised for male fertility, but exact functions of individual Y genes remain poorly understood, a knowledge gap that new approaches can bridge.

   Autonomous clocks that regulate organelle biogenesis, cytoskeletal organization, and intracellular dynamics

   Mohammad Mofatteh et al.

   Latest advances in biological timing studies substantiate an emerging concept of autonomous clocks that are normally entrained by the cell cycle and/or the circadian clock to run in synchrony, but have evolved to run independently to regulate different cellular events.

   Evolution of pathogen tolerance and emerging infections: A missing experimental paradigm

   Srijan Seal et al.

   An integrated empirical paradigm tracing immune strategies, underlying mechanisms and infection outcomes across reservoir host-pathogen systems, their specific ecological contexts, life-history features, and coevolutionary dynamics can reveal the actual patterns and processes underlying spillover in the wild.

   Studying evolution of the primary body axis in vivo and in vitro

   Kerim Anlas, Vikas Trivedi

   The shared capacity of stem cells to recapitulate initial body plan formation in vitro without species-specific cues, suggests the existence of alternative, evolutionarily conserved developmental trajectories.

   Understanding neural signals of post-decisional performance monitoring: An integrative review

   Kobe Desender et al.

   A computationally explicit framework can explain post-decisional neural signals of performance monitoring.

   How will mosquitoes adapt to climate warming?

   Lisa I Couper et al.

   Mosquitoes may be likely to adapt to climate warming given their short life cycles and strong temperature sensitivity, but key data gaps identified here constrain current estimates of adaptive potential.

   The need for practical insecticide-resistance guidelines to effectively inform mosquito-borne disease control programs

   Alice Namias et al.

   With standardized insecticide-resistance assays failing to inform mosquito-control efficacy due to genotype-by-environment effects, practical resistance monitoring under relevant local conditions is needed to correlate resistance, mosquito-control efficacy, and disease epidemiology.

   The genomic consequences of hybridization

   Benjamin M Moran et al.

   A synthesis of recent hybridization literature reveals emerging patterns in the evolution of genomes after hybridization, processes proposed to explain those patterns, and important open questions to direct future hybrid genomics research.

    Micron-scale geometrical features of microtubules as regulators of microtubule organization

    Nandini Mani et al.

    Micron-scale geometrical features of individual microtubule polymers and polymer networks encode information that guides the self-organization of microtubules into specialized structures for diverse cellular functions such as cell division and signaling in eukaryotic cells.
