    Stochastic social behavior coupled to COVID-19 dynamics leads to waves, plateaus, and an endemic state

    Alexei V Tkachenko, Sergei Maslov ... Nigel Goldenfeld
    Time-varying heterogeneous social activity explains transient suppression of epidemic waves followed by long plateaus and eventual transition towards the endemic state of an emergent pathogen, such as COVID-19.

    Risk of second primary cancers after a diagnosis of first primary cancer: A pan-cancer analysis and Mendelian randomization study

    Xiaohao Ruan, Da Huang ... Rong Na
    A certain type of primary cancer may cause another second primary cancer which would be of clinical importance to make a personalized screening plan for certain primary cancer patients.

    Genomic stability of self-inactivating rabies

    Ernesto Ciabatti, Ana González-Rueda ... Marco Tripodi
    SiR does not revert to wild type when produced in high-TEVp cell lines, is non-toxic in vivo, maintains transsynaptic spreading capabilities and revertant mutations do not accumulate during in vivo experiments.

    Augmin prevents merotelic attachments by promoting proper arrangement of bridging and kinetochore fibers

    Valentina Štimac, Isabella Koprivec ... Iva M Tolić
    STED microscopy of human mitotic spindles reveals how augmin-nucleated microtubules protect the cell from erroneous kinetochore-microtubule attachments and ensure a highly organized architecture of the spindle required for mitotic fidelity.

    Conjunction of factors triggering waves of seasonal influenza

    Ishanu Chattopadhyay, Emre Kiciman ... Andrey Rzhetsky
    Three complementary computational approaches reveal a set of putative causes of initiation of pan-USA waves of influenza.

    Heritable capture of heterochromatin dynamics in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Anne E Dodson, Jasper Rine
    Single-cell and single-molecule analyses of transient gene expression revealed hitherto unrecognized dynamics in heterochromatin function and defined novel roles for a heterochromatin establishment factor and an understudied sirtuin.

    Reducing respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) hospitalization in a lower-income country by vaccinating mothers-to-be and their households

    Samuel PC Brand, Patrick Munywoki ... David James Nokes
    Targeting the mothers, and other household members, of newborns with a mixture of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccines is both efficient and effective at reducing RSV hospitalizations.

    Reorganization of the flagellum scaffolding induces a sperm standstill during fertilization

    Martina Jabloñski, Guillermina M Luque ... Mariano G Buffone
    The double helix actin network surrounding the mitochondrial sheath of the sperm midpiece undergoes structural changes prior to the motility cessation during sperm-egg fusion.

    Cytokinesis in vertebrate cells initiates by contraction of an equatorial actomyosin network composed of randomly oriented filaments

    Felix Spira, Sara Cuylen-Haering ... Daniel W Gerlich
    Asymmetric tension increase along the cell equator promotes self-organization of actomyosin into a partially aligned network during cytokinetic cleavage furrow ingression of vertebrate cells.
