    Linking functional and molecular mechanisms of host resilience to malaria infection

    Tsukushi Kamiya, Nicole M Davis ... Nicole Mideo
    With a data-driven mathematical modelling approach, within-host ecological information alone can provide clues on the mechanistic basis of diverse malaria infection outcomes.

    Optimal plasticity for memory maintenance during ongoing synaptic change

    Dhruva V Raman, Timothy O'Leary
    Simple mathematical reasoning shows that the large amount of synaptic turnover seen in many parts of the brain is in fact optimal for memory retention.

    Information content differentiates enhancers from silencers in mouse photoreceptors

    Ryan Z Friedman, David M Granas ... Michael A White
    Silencers and enhancers targeted by a common transcription factor in photoreceptors are distinguished by the number and diversity of binding transcription factor binding sites they contain.

    Characterizing human mobility patterns in rural settings of sub-Saharan Africa

    Hannah R Meredith, John R Giles ... Amy Wesolowski
    Mobile phone data reveal aspects of human mobility patterns in Sub-Saharan Africa missed by standard spatial models however, model estimates can be improved by accounting for trip urbanicity and region.

    Leveraging the Mendelian disorders of the epigenetic machinery to systematically map functional epigenetic variation

    Teresa Romeo Luperchio, Leandros Boukas ... Hans T Bjornsson
    Chromatin/transcriptome profiling in multiple mouse models with mutations in epigenetic machinery (EM) reveals shared abnormalities including many IgA-relevant genes, indicating that this kind of joint analysis may elucidate the multigenic nature of EM disorders.
