    Complex pattern of facial remapping in somatosensory cortex following congenital but not acquired hand loss

    Victoria Root, Dollyane Muret ... Tamar R Makin
    Both hand and face representations remain relatively stable after arm amputation in adulthood, with no link to phantom limb pain, whereas pre-natal limb loss triggers complex patterns of remapping that do not relate to cortical topography.

    Stability of motor representations after paralysis

    Charles Guan, Tyson Aflalo ... Richard A Andersen
    Neural populations in PPC dynamically represent motor-like and then sensory-like aspects of brain–computer interface finger movements with a representational structure that matches able-bodied individuals.

    A moonlighting function of a chitin polysaccharide monooxygenase, CWR-1, in Neurospora crassa allorecognition

    Tyler C Detomasi, Adriana M Rico-Ramírez ... N Louise Glass
    Allorecognition in Neurospora crassa requires CWR-1 (cell wall remodeling protein), an essential process that ensures identity of an interconnected fungal syncytial colony and requires the CWR-1 polysaccharide monooxygenase domain, but not its catalytic activity.

    Membrane-mediated dimerization potentiates PIP5K lipid kinase activity

    Scott D Hansen, Albert A Lee ... Jay T Groves
    Dimerization promotes nonlinear kinetics in PIP5K-dependent lipid phosphorylation reactions.

    Finger somatotopy is preserved after tetraplegia but deteriorates over time

    Sanne Kikkert, Dario Pfyffer ... Nicole Wenderoth
    Hand somatotopy can be preserved in the primary somatosensory cortex of tetraplegic patients, despite the absence of sensorimotor function and periphery-brain communication, but deteriorates over years after injury.

    Early prediction of in-hospital death of COVID-19 patients: a machine-learning model based on age, blood analyses, and chest x-ray score

    Emirena Garrafa, Marika Vezzoli ... Roberto Maroldi
    An early-warning model able to predict in-hospital mortality in patients affected by COVID-19 was developed and validated using common and economic tools.

    Proof of concept for multiple nerve transfers to a single target muscle

    Matthias Luft, Johanna Klepetko ... Konstantin Davide Bergmeister
    A murine model for a novel surgical concept demonstrates potential advances of neuroprosthetic interfacing.

    Early life experience sets hard limits on motor learning as evidenced from artificial arm use

    Roni O Maimon-Mor, Hunter R Schone ... Tamar R Makin
    Biological- or artificial-arm experience during early development has a significant effect on artificial-arm motor control in adulthood, providing evidence for limited sensorimotor plasticity beyond childhood.

    The organizational principles of de-differentiated topographic maps in somatosensory cortex

    Peng Liu, Anastasia Chrysidou ... Esther Kuehn
    SI topographic finger maps of older adults show signs of cortical aging but do not show classical hallmarks of cortical de-differentiation.
