The readiness potential—a long-established neural precursor of voluntary action claimed to precede the onset of the conscious decision to move—is absent, or at least significantly reduced, for deliberate decisions.
Coral symbiotic alga is capable of degrading the own cell wall components by cellulase-related enzymes and releasing sugars as a simple and autonomous environmental response, even when the host-derived signals are not present.

The manner in which protons control the conformational behaviour of mammalian peptide transporters is revealed through state-of-the-art molecular dynamics simulations supported by cell-based assays.
People compete by trying to outsmart their opponents as long as they win, but show random behavior, and neural signs of suppressing knowledge about opponents’ strategies, when they lose.

Non-negative Matrix Factorization is a powerful strategy for unsupervised analysis of cell-free DNA that enables simultaneous estimation of the blood tumor fraction and the fragment length distribution of circulating tumor DNA.
