    Persistence, period and precision of autonomous cellular oscillators from the zebrafish segmentation clock

    Alexis B Webb, Iván M Lengyel ... Andrew C Oates
    Time-lapse recording and theoretical analysis of individual cells isolated from the zebrafish segmentation clock reveal that they behave as self-sustained, autonomous oscillators with distinctive noisy dynamics.

    Mapping the functional versatility and fragility of Ras GTPase signaling circuits through in vitro network reconstitution

    Scott M Coyle, Wendell A Lim
    A systems level reconstitution of H-Ras GTPase signaling reveals a rich space of tunable dynamic outputs and clarifies the consequences of oncogenic perturbations to signaling.

    Mitochondrial DNA copy number variation across human cancers

    Ed Reznik, Martin L Miller ... Chris Sander
    Many tumors are depleted of mitochondrial DNA; this depletion is associated with changes in gene expression and with the incidence of critical somatic mutations and alterations.

    The evolution of adhesiveness as a social adaptation

    Thomas Garcia, Guilhem Doulcier, Silvia De Monte
    Mathematical modeling supports a scenario where cell-cell adhesion gradually evolves through natural selection, leading to the emergence of cohesive aggregates in microbial populations.

    Prediction of primary somatosensory neuron activity during active tactile exploration

    Dario Campagner, Mathew Hywel Evans ... Rasmus Strange Petersen
    Primary trigeminal neurons encode rotational forces in awake mice as they explore an object with their whiskers, allowing accurate prediction of spiking during behaviour.

    A cholinergic feedback circuit to regulate striatal population uncertainty and optimize reinforcement learning

    Nicholas T Franklin, Michael J Frank
    Computational modeling suggests that feedback between striatal cholinergic neurons and spiny neurons dynamically adjusts learning rates to optimize behavior in a variable world.
