    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.

    Amygdala-cortical collaboration in reward learning and decision making

    Kate M Wassum
    A review of a neuronal circuit architecture that helps us to learn about rewarding events and then to use that information to support adaptive decision making.

    Hypoxia-inducible factor underlies von Hippel-Lindau disease stigmata

    Michael Ohh, Cassandra C Taber ... Daniel Tarade
    Previous studies and emerging data on pseudohypoxic diseases suggest that the complex phenotypic spectrum of VHL disease is due to the extent of HIF pathway deregulation in susceptible cell types and not by other purported substrates or functions of pVHL.

    Integrating genomic and epidemiologic data to accelerate progress toward schistosomiasis elimination

    Andrea J Lund, Kristen J Wade ... Elizabeth J Carlton
    Genomic approaches can be integrated with epidemiological and ecological studies to provide high-resolution answers to open questions about schistosomiasis transmission dynamics, offering a level of precision that is actionable, such that schistosomiasis-control programming can be tailored to regional contexts.

    Data-driven causal analysis of observational biological time series

    Alex Eric Yuan, Wenying Shou
    Visualizations, simulations, and examples are used to provide an accessible synthesis of the reasoning and assumptions behind commonly used causal discovery approaches.

    Understanding implicit sensorimotor adaptation as a process of proprioceptive re-alignment

    Jonathan S Tsay, Hyosub Kim ... Richard B Ivry
    A new computational model reveals how implicit sensorimotor adaptation is elicited to re-align one's felt and desired hand position.

    Hematopoietic plasticity mapped in Drosophila and other insects

    Dan Hultmark, István Andó
    A critical analysis of recent single-cell transcriptomic studies of Drosophila blood cells confirms the extreme plasticity of the major phagocyte class, identifies a new class of blood cell, and suggests relationships to blood cells in other insects.

    Microscopic colitis: Etiopathology, diagnosis, and rational management

    Ole Haagen Nielsen, Fernando Fernandez-Banares ... Darrell S Pardi
    State-of-the-art knowledge of microscopic colitis, a disease often more prevalent than ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease among elderly people, is provided from a global perspective with the overall aim to create better awareness and improve rational management.

    Evolution of multiple omics approaches to define pathophysiology of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome

    Jane E Whitney, In-Hee Lee ... Sek Won Kong
    Multiple -omics approaches have provided valuable insight into the pathobiology of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome, and novel unbiased techniques hold promise for future discoveries.

    Fitness consequences of outgroup conflict

    Ines Braga Goncalves, Amy Morris-Drake ... Andrew N Radford
    A detailed discussion of the broad range of immediate, delayed, cumulative, and third-party fitness consequences arising from outgroup conflict showcases the importance of this neglected aspect of sociality as a powerful and widespread evolutionary force.
