A new agent-based model enables predicting how coral species richness and functional diversity affect the functioning and resilience of coral reef ecosystems.

Single-cell tracking and cell-fate simulation suggest that low levels of p53 suppress aneuploid cell formation in unstressed cells and also reveal the dual fate of cells lacking p53 in the presence of p53-proficient cells.

Confronting different models of chromatin accessibility with temporally resolved transcription profiles favors a scenario where transcription factors actively, rather than passively, drive chromatin from the inaccessible to the accessible state.

Combined experimental and theoretical analysis identifies a molecular mechanism akin to working memory that enables single cells to perform complex navigation tasks in changing growth factor fields, beyond simple stimulus-response associations.

Mesoderm-derived enteric neurons born in the post-natal vertebrates drive maturation and aging of the enteric nervous system.

An experimentally supported model of grid cells naturally enables them to participate in firing sequences that encode rapid trajectories in space.

A chemical probe was characterized for potency, selectivity, and ability to alter CARM1-dependent epigenetic plasticity against cancer cell invasion.

New methods for statistical inference in representational similarity analysis were developed, tested thoroughly, and are made available in an open-source Python toolbox.

For initiation of cell-wall insertion, the cross-linking enzyme PBP2 stably binds to a component of the cell envelope that is different from MreB filaments.

A mathematical modelling approach to understanding zebrafish stripe pattern formation exemplifies a biological rule-set sufficient to generate wild-type and a diverse range of mutant patterns.
