Research Articles published by eLife are full-length studies that present important breakthroughs across the life sciences and biomedicine. There is no maximum length and no limits on the number of display items.
Hearing impairment selectively disrupts neural tracking of speech at both short and long temporal scales during multi-speaker listening, while preserving intermediate linguistic processing.
Glycolytic activation directly drives Kupffer cell loss in early metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease, highlighting a targetable metabolic vulnerability.

A navigational model exploring social learning strategies differing in cognitive complexity in homing pigeons shows that simple averaging sufficiently explains collective route improvements, without requiring cumulative cultural evolution.
The optimized protocol for isolating small extracellular vesicles from small blood volumes, confirmed by independent methods including cryo-electron microscopy, ensures superior purity and high yield for reliable biomarker detection.

Early enhancer logic precisely aligns developmental boundaries by integrating HOX, GATA, and signaling inputs, ensuring correct tissue patterning and preventing mirror-image duplications in the developing wing.

Faster early-season development, especially under nighttime warming, advances the point at which the autumn phenology of European beech becomes responsive to late-summer cooling.

Descending neurons that encode widefield motion vision in the fly have sexually dimorphic velocity tuning, while the wing beat amplitude, which these neurons presumably control, is monomorphic.

B cell activation and antibody class switching requires coordinated metabolic rewiring, with essential roles for amino acid transport, cholesterol metabolism, and prenylation in driving proliferation across multiple activating stimuli.
