Maternal positional information in the fly embryo can be read rapidly in spite of the gene-expression bottleneck and general examples of regulatory architectures that combine speed and accuracy are provided.

Coupling between cell motility and strong confinement alters the force generators that cause flow fields to change their handedness and lead to enhanced mixing.

The plant developmental regulator GNOM performs its unique function from the cell periphery, through sequence features present in all its domains, and not by the control of endocytosis.

Visual information can be maintained in non-conscious working memory for several seconds via short-term changes in synaptic weights.

Fish swimming in groups can either conserve or expend energy during collective movement, depending on their spatial position within the school.

Intersectional genetics show that excitatory neurons are essential for the functional and anatomical maturation of cerebellar circuits in mice.

Coral reef heterotrophic bacteria and fleshy macroalgae cause oxygen loss from reef systems through microbial biomass accumulation and ebullition from algae surfaces.

A computational framework and analysis of rodent CA1 data reveals that theta oscillations sequentially sweep through the past, present, and future at a spatial scale that varies with the characteristic speed of the animal.

A genome-wide catalog of the regulatory effects of variants that separate modern humans from archaic humans.
