Ephemeral leadership between differently experienced birds regulates the balance between exploration and exploitation over successive homing flights in a manner that facilitates the accumulation of route innovations.
Human intracranial electroencephalography recordings across 177 participants and four diverse episodic memory experiments demonstrate how the anterior insula node of the salience network orchestrates dynamics of large-scale brain networks.

Effectively connected neurons self-organize forming networks with a small-world architecture composed of modules, with most likely few and nearby neurons, integrated by more topologically important and high firing rate neurons.
Cross-frequency communication between the cortex and thalamus is linked to consciousness and changes in unconscious and psychedelic states, possibly due to shifts in brain dynamics between stability and chaos.
Actin networks form clusters under myosin-induced contractility, while high actin filament treadmilling speed can reshape actin networks into ring-like structures with lower mechanical energy.
A novel method of recording neural activity from the rodent medial prefrontal cortex reveals that the medial prefrontal cortex is composed of functionally distinct subregions that process economic decision information differentially along a dorso-ventral gradient.

Information theory reveals that apparently similar signaling behaviors in ants and termites are instead governed by distinct communication protocols explaining their underlying different functions.
