Sensitive brain activity mapping and behavioral profiling reveal most microexons are dispensable for early brain development but highlight a small subset with intriguing neural phenotypes for future study.
Children’s social cognitive development emerges from the dynamic interplay of neural maturation, parental caregiving, and dyadic brain-to-brain synchrony.

Biophysically detailed modeling predicts that a biologically plausible synaptic plasticity rule, gated by calcium and dopamine, enables single neurons to solve nonlinear binding tasks by exploiting dendritic nonlinearities.
Cavefish exhibit resilience to chronic sleep loss and tolerate elevated DNA damage and reduced DNA repair responses without compromising healthspan or longevity.
Multimodal neuroimaging explained 66% of the cognitive–mental health link in children, outperforming polygenic scores (21%), and accounted for 58% of the environmental contribution to this relationship.
A multi-pronged approach reveals that ion transport peptide neuropeptide acts through the guanylate cyclase receptor Gyc76C to coordinate osmotic and metabolic homeostasis across multiple tissues in Drosophila.
