    Fast and flexible sequence induction in spiking neural networks via rapid excitability changes

    Rich Pang, Adrienne L Fairhall
    Biologically plausible changes in the excitabilities of single neurons may suffice to selectively modulate sequential network dynamics, without modifying of recurrent connectivity.

    Imaging single-cell blood flow in the smallest to largest vessels in the living retina

    Aby Joseph, Andres Guevara-Torres, Jesse Schallek
    By using a specialized camera that corrects for eye blur, millions of single-blood-cells are imaged, and their speed measured, as they travel through the largest-to-smallest vessels of the retina.

    Retinal stem cells modulate proliferative parameters to coordinate post-embryonic morphogenesis in the eye of fish

    Erika Tsingos, Burkhard Höckendorf ... Joachim Wittbrodt
    3D niche topology imposes a spatially biased random stem cell loss, which is differentially fine-tuned in neural retina and retinal pigmented epithelium to regulate growth, shape, and cellular topology.

    Essential metabolism for a minimal cell

    Marian Breuer, Tyler M Earnest ... Zaida Luthey-Schulten
    A near-complete flux balance analysis model of a minimal cell demonstrates the high essentiality of its metabolic genes, agrees well with experimental essentiality data and suggests some further gene removals.

    Saccharomyces cerevisiae goes through distinct metabolic phases during its replicative lifespan

    Simeon Leupold, Georg Hubmann ... Matthias Heinemann
    With replicative age, S. cerevisiae shifts from a fermentative towards an unusual respiratory metabolism, accompanied by a decrease in growth and glucose uptake rate.

    Narrow equilibrium window for complex coacervation of tau and RNA under cellular conditions

    Yanxian Lin, James McCarty ... Songi Han
    Liquid-liquid phase separation of tau is demonstrated to be an equilibrium state, stable only within a narrow range near physiological conditions, and thus has the capacity to regulate biological processes.
