    Convergent mosaic brain evolution is associated with the evolution of novel electrosensory systems in teleost fishes

    Erika L Schumacher, Bruce A Carlson
    In teleost fishes, the independent evolution of electrosensory systems was repeatedly associated with evolutionary changes in brain region scaling that were independent of changes in brain–body allometry.

    Allosteric mechanism of the V. vulnificus adenine riboswitch resolved by four-dimensional chemical mapping

    Siqi Tian, Wipapat Kladwang, Rhiju Das
    A new biochemical method tests whether or not the pre-existing RNA structural correlations couple small molecule binding to gene expression in a paradigmatic riboswitch.

    Metabolic co-dependence drives the evolutionarily ancient Hydra–Chlorella symbiosis

    Mayuko Hamada, Katja Schröder ... Thomas CG Bosch
    The symbiotic relationship between Hydra and Chlorella is driven by metabolic co-dependence and characterized by changes in the photobiont genome in terms of lack of genes essential in free-living algae.

    What the success of brain imaging implies about the neural code

    Olivia Guest, Bradley C Love
    For brain imaging to be useful despite its limitations in measuring neural activity, the neural code must be smooth both in a traditional sense and functionally.

    Streamlining segmentation of cryo-electron tomography datasets with Ais

    Mart GF Last, Leoni Abendstein ... Thomas H Sharp
    The software package Ais simplifies automated segmentation in cryo-electron tomography, enabling users to segment, detect particles, and visualize data in a streamlined and accessible workflow.

    Spatiotemporal organisation of human sensorimotor beta burst activity

    Catharina Zich, Andrew J Quinn ... Sven Bestmann
    Burst activity can be described in all three signal domains and sensorimotor beta burst activity propagates along two axes either parallel or perpendicular to the central sulcus.

    Gut microbial trimethylamine is elevated in alcohol-associated hepatitis and contributes to ethanol-induced liver injury in mice

    Robert N Helsley, Tatsunori Miyata ... Jonathan Mark Brown
    The gut microbe-derived metabolite trimethylamine (TMA) is elevated in patients with alcohol-associated hepatitis and inhibition of the gut microbial enzymes that produce TMA may serve as a tractable therapeutic strategy for the treatment of ethanol-induced liver injury.

    Single-exposure visual memory judgments are reflected in inferotemporal cortex

    Travis Meyer, Nicole C Rust
    In response to the question "Have you seen this image before?", remembering and forgetting can be accounted for by a weighted linear read-out of memory signals in monkey inferotemporal cortex.

    Early life infection and proinflammatory, atherogenic metabolomic and lipidomic profiles in infancy: a population-based cohort study

    Toby Mansell, Richard Saffery ... Barwon Infant Study Investigator Group
    More parent-reported infections in the first year of life were associated with metabolic differences linked with cardiovascular and metabolic disease in adulthood, with observational evidence for inflammation partly mediating this relationship.

    Conduction velocity along a key white matter tract is associated with autobiographical memory recall ability

    Ian A Clark, Siawoosh Mohammadi ... Eleanor A Maguire
    A new magnetic resonance brain imaging measure reveals that variations in people’s ability to recall their past experiences may be related to the speed at which electrical signals travel along axons in the parahippocampal cingulum bundle.
