The translation rates of each yeast codon have been measured in both the A and P sites of the ribosome.

A fly larval mechanical nociceptor develops dedicated neuronal mechanisms to support its sensory preference in detecting localized poking forces, and this sensory feature well supports the physiological function of the nociceptor in sensing the physical attack of its natural enemy.

Differing from its ortholog in Helicoverpa armigera, pheromone receptor HassOr14b is tuned to the major sex pheromone component in H. assulta, and two amino acids in the intracellular domain determine their ligand selectivity.

A very large number of place-field maps can be robustly learned by association of external cues with the grid-driven response, however plasticity in the grid-cell inputs renders the place-cell responses volatile.

There is little evidence for an association between sense of coherence and risk of breast cancer.

Bacteria reach swimming speeds of several hundred body lengths per second and change direction in less than 5 ms by using coordinated flagella bundle agitation.

Sequence changes in the pneumococcal genome explain most of the variability in duration of asymptomatic carriage with serotype, antibiotic resistance and prophage accounting for the largest effects.

Perception is proposed to be a dynamic motor-sensory closed-loop process in which information flows through the environment and the brain in continuous loops, converging towards steady-state percepts.

Relative hydraulic resistance, shear rate, and pressure in a vascular network integrate the network's architecture via fluid flow, and determine vein dynamics, with a time delay, in the prototypical organism Physarum polycephalum.

The recent claim that humans can discriminate more than one trillion odors is shown to be unwarranted.
