An ultra-high static magnetic field changes mitotic spindle orientation in cells by exerting magnetic torques on both microtubules and chromosomes.

Live imaging of multiple cytoplasmic networks in frog egg extracts calls for new models for how egg cytoplasm is physically organized during cleavage divisions.

A 2-year field experiment reveals that plant secondary metabolites can be harnessed to increase crop productivity through plant-soil feedbacks under agronomically realistic conditions.

The attempt to manipulate a microbiome in planta to study the ecological consequences under field conditions leaves plants and their microbes surprisingly unimpressed.

The slope of the power spectrum of subthalamic local field potentials tracks pathological states in Parkinson’s disease and likely complements beta activity as a feedback marker for adaptive deep brain stimulation.

Electrical and biomechanical stimuli directly bias cortical signal transduction and cytoskeletal waves, and the direct bias induced by an electric field develops slowly compared to the rapid surface-receptor-mediated response to chemotactic gradients.

There is a frequency-dependent association between the local field potential and the coordinated activity of populations of single neurons, which remains constant during different aspects of behaviour but changes across regions of primate sensorimotor cortex.

A biologically plausible model of myelin plasticity demonstrates how oligodendrocytes can selectively adjust conduction delays in axon bundles to allow robust communication between brain regions through long-range synchronization.

The electroconvulsive therapy induced electric field magnitude and laterality is related to volumetric increases in cortical and subcortical structures, but the association with clinical outcomes remains elusive.

Measurement precision offers a comprehensive perspective on good scientific practices to improve reproducibility of research results by providing means to optimize design and analysis parameters (e.g. sample size, trial count, or sample heterogeneity) in accordance with the researcher’s goals.
