Neural responses during statistical learning reveal dissociable dynamic effects of expectation, supporting the opposing process theory within trials while demonstrating contrasting effects across trials.
Acoustic jamming during bat emergence is weaker than expected because signal redundancy, echo integration, and simple movement rules enable robust navigation, as demonstrated by an agent‑based sensory-motor model.
SegPore refines raw signal segmentation and alignment in nanopore direct RNA sequencing and thereby boosts the performance of RNA modification detection from in vitro data at single-read resolution.
Endemic Rift Valley fever virus circulation in The Gambia is driven by seasonal cattle movements and eco-region differences, highlighting livestock mobility as a key target for effective control strategies.
The genetic network of BTB zinc finger transcription factors and Eip93F is crucial for Kenyon cell identity regulation and neuronal function acquisition in the construction of Drosophila mushroom bodies.

A novel fMRI method reveals that humans generalize task structure across non-aligned state spaces, showing entorhinal representations support flexible knowledge transfer.
Saccades selectively disrupt spatial but not colour memory, and while transsaccadic updating remains resilient to ageing and neurodegeneration, individual drawing deficits arise from impaired initial encoding and memory decay.

Design and integration of various biomolecular sensors for over-activated rat sarcoma (RAS) created synthetic gene circuits that distinguish mutant versus wild-type signaling and express a therapeutic protein to kill RAS-driven cancer cells.
