    Global diversity and antimicrobial resistance of typhoid fever pathogens: Insights from a meta-analysis of 13,000 Salmonella Typhi genomes

    Megan E Carey, Zoe A Dyson ... Global Typhoid Genomics Consortium Group Authorship
    An analysis of the largest Salmonella Typhi genome collection to date (n=13,000) provides an updated overview of global genome diversity and antimicrobial resistance trends over time to inform public health action.

    The Mutationathon highlights the importance of reaching standardization in estimates of pedigree-based germline mutation rates

    Lucie A Bergeron, Søren Besenbacher ... Mikkel H Schierup
    This first comparison of different methodologies to estimate germline mutation rate from pedigrees resulted in almost a 2-fold variation in the estimated rates, discrepancies mainly caused by different filtering methods.

    Mice in a labyrinth show rapid learning, sudden insight, and efficient exploration

    Matthew Rosenberg, Tony Zhang ... Markus Meister
    Mice exploring a labyrinth freely for the first time learn a complex action sequence after a handful of rewards, exhibiting a learning rate 1000-fold higher than in commonly-used paradigms.

    Dynamic analysis of circulating tumor DNA to predict the prognosis and monitor the treatment response of patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer: A prospective study

    Yajing Chi, Mu Su ... Huihui Li
    ctDNA predict prognosis and treatment response of mTNBC patients more sensitively than traditional tumor markers, which implies ctDNA may be valuable for individualized treatment decision-making and paves the way for a non-invasive real-time clinical management strategy in patients with mTNBC.

    Changes in mRNA abundance drive shuttling of RNA binding proteins, linking cytoplasmic RNA degradation to transcription

    Sarah Gilbertson, Joel D Federspiel ... Britt Glaunsinger
    Messenger RNA degradation alters protein trafficking to control transcription.

    Increasing stimulus similarity drives nonmonotonic representational change in hippocampus

    Jeffrey Wammes, Kenneth A Norman, Nicholas Turk-Browne
    Hippocampal learning in dentate gyrus follows a U-shaped function, with moderate, but not high or low, overlap between representations leading to differentiation of neural patterns.

    Carm1-arginine methylation of the transcription factor C/EBPα regulates transdifferentiation velocity

    Guillem Torcal Garcia, Elisabeth Kowenz-Leutz ... Thomas Graf
    A mutation in the lineage-determining regulator C/EBPα that increases the factor’s affinity for its partner PU.1 dramatically accelerates the velocity of B cell to macrophage transdifferentiation.
