Firing rate nonlinearity recovers linear decodability of orientation information from simple cells of the primary visual cortex under uncertainty of nuisance parameters phase and spatial frequency.
Individual participant data meta-analysis reveals the estimated lifespan trajectory of cortical GABA, characterized by an early rapid increase, followed by a period of stability during early adulthood, and a gradual decrease.
Intracellular protein gradients, which are formed by the combined action of cytoplasmic diffusion and cortical transport toward the cell pole, are solely determined by cell shape.

Staphylococcus aureus switches from innocuous coloniser to invasive human pathogen, the bacterial population can accumulate pathoadaptive mutations that reduce bacterial toxicity whilst allowing persistence within infected cells, potentially leading to severe human infections.

Chronic perturbations of spiking activity trigger compensatory changes in GABAergic synaptic strength, but not compensatory changes in AMPAergic synaptic strength.
A theoretical model explains how protein density and nuclear to cell volume ratio are maintained during cell growth, discusses conditions under which this breaks down, and highlights the importance of metabolites, mainly amino acids such as glutamate, in this homeostasis.
