    A big-data approach to understanding metabolic rate and response to obesity in laboratory mice

    June K Corrigan, Deepti Ramachandran ... Alexander S Banks
    The metabolic rate of mice is disproportionately affected by the site of experimentation, affecting the phenotypic interpretation of genetically modified strains.

    Transverse sinus injections drive robust whole-brain expression of transgenes

    Ali S Hamodi, Aude Martinez Sabino ... Michael C Crair
    A new viral injection method targets the transverse sinuses to achieve robust whole-brain delivery of single or multiple genes in multiple mammalian species early in development.

    ODELAM, rapid sequence-independent detection of drug resistance in isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

    Thurston Herricks, Magdalena Donczew ... John D Aitchison
    Time-lapse live cell imaging of single Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacilli growing into small colonies enables their rapid phenotypic characterization including anti-microbial resistance and heteroresistance in clinical isolates.

    A new protocol for single-cell RNA-seq reveals stochastic gene expression during lag phase in budding yeast

    Abbas Jariani, Lieselotte Vermeersch ... Kevin J Verstrepen
    A new high-throughput method for single-cell RNA-seq in yeast cells shows how stochastic expression of glucose-repressed genes contributes to cell-to-cell differences during adaptation to an environmental change.

    Enhancement of homology-directed repair with chromatin donor templates in cells

    Grisel Cruz-Becerra, James T Kadonaga
    Precise genome editing by homology-directed repair occurs more efficiently with a chromatin donor template than with a naked DNA donor template.

    The natverse, a versatile toolbox for combining and analysing neuroanatomical data

    Alexander Shakeel Bates, James D Manton ... Gregory SXE Jefferis
    Open source software enables neuroscientists to integrate single neuron or synaptic-resolution datasets from different imaging modalities to analyse morphology and connectivity at the scale of whole brains and connectomes.

    SpikeForest, reproducible web-facing ground-truth validation of automated neural spike sorters

    Jeremy Magland, James J Jun ... Alex H Barnett
    Ten popular spike sorting codes are reproducibly benchmarked for accuracy on electrophysiology datasets from eleven laboratories with interactive web-based exploration of thousands of ground-truth units.

    Wireless recording from unrestrained monkeys reveals motor goal encoding beyond immediate reach in frontoparietal cortex

    Michael Berger, Naubahar Shahryar Agha, Alexander Gail
    The novel Reach Cage allows neurophysiology studies of structured behavior with unrestrained Rhesus macaques showing that the frontoparietal reach network is selective for reach goals outside the immediately reachable space.

    A highly accurate platform for clone-specific mutation discovery enables the study of active mutational processes

    Eli M Carrami, Sahand Sharifzadeh ... Ahmed A Ahmed
    A robust library preparation and variant calling strategy (DigiPico/MutLX) eliminates false positive single nucleotide variants from picogram quantities of DNA following whole genome amplification.
