    Temporal context and latent state inference in the hippocampal splitter signal

    Éléonore Duvelle, Roddy M Grieves, Matthijs AA van der Meer
    A synthesis of 20+ years of experimental studies on 'splitter cells' in the hippocampus reveals that signature properties of (1) temporal context models and (2) latent state inference are both needed to account for the data.

    Conservation of oocyte development in germline cysts from Drosophila to mouse

    Allan C Spradling, Wanbao Niu ... Bhawana Maurya
    Early oocyte development takes place in germline cysts and is strikingly conserved from Drosophila to mouse, reflecting common mechanisms that may help reverse aging and specify oocyte and early embryo polarity.

    Ecological lipidology

    Laura Christin Trautenberg, Marko Brankatschk ... Klaus Reinhardt
    Effects of dietary lipids on organismal function and reproductive fitness are persistent and may depend on lipid identity, cause the evolution of lipid-based diet choice, alter food webs, change species responses to environmental change, and affect human nutrition.
