    Independent and interacting value systems for reward and information in the human brain

    Irene Cogliati Dezza, Axel Cleeremans, William H Alexander
    Reward and information are independently optimized in the human prefrontal cortex, while their signals combine in subcortical regions.

    Fruitless mutant male mosquitoes gain attraction to human odor

    Nipun S Basrur, Maria Elena De Obaldia ... Leslie B Vosshall
    Engineering male mosquitoes lacking the fruitless gene induces them to be attracted to humans.

    Spontaneous human CD8 T cell and autoimmune encephalomyelitis-induced CD4/CD8 T cell lesions in the brain and spinal cord of HLA-DRB1*15-positive multiple sclerosis humanized immune system mice

    Irini Papazian, Maria Kourouvani ... Lesley Probert
    Severely immunodeficient B2m-NOG mice transplanted with human peripheral blood mononuclear cells from multiple sclerosis patients partially reproduce disease immunopathology and represent novel experimental models for studying human immune responses to the central nervous system in a rapid and personalized manner.

    Barcoded bulk QTL mapping reveals highly polygenic and epistatic architecture of complex traits in yeast

    Alex N Nguyen Ba, Katherine R Lawrence ... Michael M Desai
    A bulk barcoded quantitative trait locus approach increases the power and resolution of genotype-phenotype mapping in yeast, revealing that the genetic architecture of 18 complex traits is highly polygenic, and is characterized by widespread epistatic interactions and pleiotropic effects.

    Valence biases in reinforcement learning shift across adolescence and modulate subsequent memory

    Gail M Rosenbaum, Hannah L Grassie, Catherine A Hartley
    Relative to children and adults, adolescents placed greater weight on negative prediction errors during learning and these age-varying learning idiosyncrasies biased subsequent memory for information associated with valenced outcomes.

    LabNet hardware control software for the Raspberry Pi

    Alexej Schatz, York Winter
    A software distributed platform for the Raspberry Pi to simplify and unify hardware access over the Ethernet network with almost real-time latencies.

    The transcription factor Xrp1 orchestrates both reduced translation and cell competition upon defective ribosome assembly or function

    Marianthi Kiparaki, Chaitali Khan ... Nicholas E Baker
    Ribosomal protein mutations, mutations that affect ribosomal RNA synthesis, or function of the mature ribosome, trigger a transcriptional response mediated by Xrp1 expression which reduces cellular translation via eIF2-alpha phosphorylation and renders cells liable to competition with wild-type neighbors.

    Recurrent evolution of high virulence in isolated populations of a DNA virus

    Tom Hill, Robert L Unckless
    The same host–virus interactions can evolve multiple times in nature, due to the high effective mutation rate of viruses, and provide interesting systems of study.

    Tradeoff breaking as a model of evolutionary transitions in individuality and limits of the fitness-decoupling metaphor

    Pierrick Bourrat, Guilhem Doulcier ... Katrin Hammerschmidt
    A new model describes evolutionary transitions in individuality in terms of tradeoff and tradeoff-breaking events as opposed to changes in the nature of fitness.

    Bacterial–fungal interactions in the neonatal gut influence asthma outcomes later in life

    Rozlyn CT Boutin, Charisse Petersen ... B Brett Finlay
    Overgrowth of the yeast Pichia kudriavzevii within the neonatal gut microbiota increases allergic airway disease severity later in life and may be inhibited by short-chain fatty acids.
