Naturalistic animal behavior exhibits a complex organization in the temporal domain, whose variability stems from hierarchical, contextual, and stochastic sources and can be naturally explained in terms of metastable attractor models.

A new ethologically relevant model for investigating the neurobiology of solitary, asocial behavior in the blind mole rat.

The midbrain periaqueductal grey is a conserved mediator of elaborate courtship behavior in a range of vertebrate taxa, likely shaping how this behavior diversifies across the tree of life.

A standardized comparison of contractile force among in vitro muscle tissues across different platforms requires proper normalization with the contractile area and complementary morphological, maturation, and functional analysis to reduce variability and boost a new generation of engineered constructs.

The potential metabolic mechanisms that underly the growing prevalence of long COVID are explored and potential treatments discussed.

Ecological and evolutionary perspectives are critical to understand, predict, prevent, and treat malaria parasites that may spread to humans from our close primate relatives.

The ZP is a viscoelastic ECM that provides stability for contacts between projections from the innermost cumulus cells and oocyte microvilli that pass through the ZP and form gap junctions shown to be essential for oocyte growth and follicle development.

Organ-selective drug action of traditional Chinese medicine that generates systemic immune mediators is proposed and reviewed as a novel mechanistic angle to develop new immunomodulatory drugs.

A time-gated model is proposed to reconcile the transient vs. persistent biological activities of cellular senescence, in which 'time' seems to be the main orchestrator of the beneficial vs. detrimental effects of the senescent programme.

Circulating cell-free DNA studies should control for participants' physical activity to avoid its confounding effect on total cell-free DNA level.
