   A sensorimotor model shows why a spectral jamming avoidance response does not help bats deal with jamming

   Omer Mazar, Yossi Yovel

   An elaborated bat-predator model shows that even in high bat-densities, bats can successfully catch flying insects and that changing their signals’ frequency is not necessary for dealing with sensory interference.

   Tailored design of protein nanoparticle scaffolds for multivalent presentation of viral glycoprotein antigens

   George Ueda et al.

   De novo protein nanoparticles were designed from scratch to present viral glycoprotein antigens, providing a systematic way to study the influence of antigen presentation geometry on immune response.

   Movement initiation and grasp representation in premotor and primary motor cortex mirror neurons

   Steven Jack Jerjian et al.

   Mirror neurons, including corticospinal neurons, in primary motor cortex of macaque monkeys, clearly dissociate between execution and observation of grasping actions while ventral premotor cortex (F5) maintains a similar representation.

   Dissecting transcriptional amplification by MYC

   Zuqin Nie et al.

   Synthetic biology experiments show that MYC is a general transcription amplifier acting at two or more sites in the transcription-cycle and that MYC-turnover contributes to its activity.

    Meta-Research: International authorship and collaboration across bioRxiv preprints

    Richard J Abdill et al.

    An analysis of 67,885 preprints on bioRxiv finds evidence for disparities in international participation that are similar to the disparities found in conventional journals.
