    Personality links with lifespan in chimpanzees

    Drew M Altschul, William D Hopkins ... Alexander Weiss
    Among captive chimpanzees, higher agreeableness males and higher openness females survive longer.

    Evolution of a functionally intact but antigenically distinct DENV fusion loop

    Rita M Meganck, Deanna Zhu ... Longping V Tse
    Operating as a serum profiling tool for dengue infection and vaccination, the D2-FLM variant, which is insensitive to antibody-dependent enhancement-prone fusion loop antibodies, also offers potential for a safer dengue virus vaccine.

    Evidence for adolescent length growth spurts in bonobos and other primates highlights the importance of scaling laws

    Andreas Berghaenel, Jeroen MG Stevens ... Verena Behringer
    Scaling laws reveal the presence of adolescent growth spurts in bonobos and potentially in other non-human primates, challenging the notion of these spurts as a uniquely human trait and emphasizing the need to consider scaling laws when interpreting growth patterns.

    Broadly neutralizing human antibodies against dengue virus identified by single B cell transcriptomics

    Natasha D Durham, Aditi Agrawal ... Leslie Goo
    Identification of viral and host determinants of broadly neutralizing antibodies targeting a new epitope on dengue virus that can be used to guide vaccine design.

    Rapid evolution of the human mutation spectrum

    Kelley Harris, Jonathan K Pritchard
    Heritable mutations tend to occur within different DNA sequence contexts in different human populations, suggesting that DNA replication and repair often change in efficacy over only a few hundred generations of evolution.

    Linking the evolution of two prefrontal brain regions to social and foraging challenges in primates

    Sebastien Bouret, Emmanuel Paradis ... Cecile Garcia
    Across primates, volumes of specific brain regions relate to specific socio-ecological factors, bridging the gap between neuro-cognitive operations from laboratory studies and challenges primates face in their natural environment.

    Tonic firing mode of midbrain dopamine neurons continuously tracks reward values changing moment-by-moment

    Yawei Wang, Osamu Toyoshima ... Masayuki Matsumoto
    Although the phasic activity of midbrain dopamine neurons is known to represent reward values, these neurons displayed a tonic firing mode to continuously track reward values changing moment-by-moment.

    Background selection and biased gene conversion affect more than 95% of the human genome and bias demographic inferences

    Fanny Pouyet, Simon Aeschbacher ... Laurent Excoffier
    Background selection and GC-biased gene conversion impact the human genome to a much larger extent than previously recognized in low and high recombination rate regions, respectively.

    Cortical network architecture for context processing in primate brain

    Zenas C Chao, Yasuo Nagasaka, Naotaka Fujii
    Large-scale electrocorticography and big data analysis of brain-wide neuronal interactions reveal the architecture of network information flow for context processing in primate brain.
