    Direction-dependent arm kinematics reveal optimal integration of gravity cues

    Jeremie Gaveau, Bastien Berret ... Charalambos Papaxanthis
    Theoretical models and experimental results reveal how the optimal integration of gravity cues fine tunes movement kinematics so that motor effort is minimized in the ubiquitous gravity field.

    Continuous lateral oscillations as a core mechanism for taxis in Drosophila larvae

    Antoine Wystrach, Konstantinos Lagogiannis, Barbara Webb
    Analysis of crawling Drosophila larva and agent based simulations suggest that an intrinsic rhythm rather than distinct actions underlie taxis behaviour, providing a core mechanism on which both sensory and memory pathways can converge.

    Automated structure refinement of macromolecular assemblies from cryo-EM maps using Rosetta

    Ray Yu-Ruei Wang, Yifan Song ... Frank DiMaio
    Extensive benchmarking reveals that errors made when manually building models into near-atomic-resolution cryoEM density may automatically be corrected using an improved Rosetta-based structure refinement method.

    A specific role for serotonin in overcoming effort cost

    Florent Meyniel, Guy M Goodwin ... Raphaël Gaillard
    A selective reuptake inhibitor shows a beneficial effect in healthy humans during an effort-benefit tradeoff task, mediated at the computational level by a specific alleviation of effort cost.
