Stunning new scan data of an enigmatic fish from the Early Devonian of Australia, Ligulalepis, is identified as a stem osteichthyan, specifically, as the sister taxon to the 'psarolepids' plus crown osteichthyans.

The number of sporozoites expelled by mosquitoes that are infected with lab-cultured or naturally circulating Plasmodium falciparum gametocytes is heterogeneous and associated with the sporozoite load in their salivary glands.

DNA concentration, cyclin levels, phosphatase activity, and CDK phosphorylation combine to directly link cell size to cell division.

PGFinder is an open-source software dedicated to the analysis of peptidoglycan mass spectrometry data that paves the way for peptidoglycomics.

A biophysically detailed model of mouse primary visual cortex reproduces, in a quantitative manner, experimentally recorded spikes and local field potentials, and suggests mechanisms that form current sinks and sources in vivo.

Natural transmission experiments should be prioritised over risky and expensive field trials, in order to establish the impact of cattle vaccination on the transmission of bovine Tuberculosis.

Redaction, intended to obscure personal and institutional identity, reduced the gap between Black vs. White applicants in simulated review of real NIH scientific grant applications, thus providing qualified support for double-blinded models of peer review.

The ancestor of all known jawed vertebrates possessed a maxilla and premaxilla and was similar in morphology to the 'maxillate placoderms' from China.

A new tool to visualize blood-feeding mosquitoes in high resolution and quantitatively characterize their behavior sheds light on contact-dependent sensing and blood-feeding dynamics of several medically relevant mosquito species.

The structural basis for Her2's role as a dedicated heterodimerization partner for other EGFR family receptors is elucidated with long-timescale atomistic simulations.
