Task controllability manipulations reveal that information seeking is associated with reduced confidence and active hypothesis testing, as well as stronger neurophysiological correlates of attention and arousal.

An epithelium modelled as an active, nematic surface can display flattening, budding, and tubulation morphogenetic events, which are observed during development in biological organisms.

A normalization model is shown to predict responses to multiple objects across changes in the attentional state in the visual cortex, providing evidence for the role of normalization as a fundamental operation in the human brain.

Augmentation of progestin signaling promotes testis development and spermatogenesis independent from andorgen signaling in zebrafish.

A nonlinear deep generative model can represent fetal–neonatal resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging better than conventional linear models.

Stdpopsim, a framework for generating realistic chromosome-scale simulations, is expanded to facilitate simulations for non-model species, resulting in insights into how such simulations should be designed.

Across four samples of children, adolescents, and young adults, age-related higher similarity of dominant, development-specific fast sleep spindles and adult-like fast sleep spindles is uniquely related to stronger and more precise slow oscillation-sleep spindle coupling.

Micromanipulation experiments demonstrate that HP1α strengthens interphase and mitotic chromosome mechanics and maintains nuclear shape by chromatin crosslinking, separate from histone methylation.

Among the factors that predict fitness in wild baboons, dominance rank in males, but not in females, is the best predictor of epigenetic aging.

The ancestor of all known jawed vertebrates possessed a maxilla and premaxilla and was similar in morphology to the 'maxillate placoderms' from China.
