Frequency-selective contrast sensitivity modulation driven by fine-tuned exogenous attention at the foveal scale

Exogenous attention is a rapid, involuntary mechanism that automatically reallocates processing resources toward salient stimuli. It enhances visual sensitivity in the vicinity of the salient stimulus ...

Deep learning reveals endogenous sterols as allosteric modulators of the GPCR–Gα interface

An AI-driven computational toolkit, Gcoupler, integrates ligand design, statistical modeling, and graph neural networks to predict endogenous metabolites that allosterically modulate the GPCR–Gα ...

Learning-Associated Flexibility of Cortical Taste Coding Is Impaired in Shank3 Knockout Mice

This valuable study provides solid evidence for deficits in aversive taste learning and taste coding in a mouse model of autism spectrum disorders. Specifically, the authors found that Shank3 knockout ...

Tuberculosis: A surprising new hiding place for a dangerous pathogen

The bacterium that causes TB can hide in liver cells called hepatocytes, and reprogram their metabolism for its own benefit.

Evolutionary remodeling of non-canonical ORF translation in mammals

This study presents a large, systematically curated catalog of non-canonical open reading frames (ncORFs) in human and mouse by reanalyzing nearly 400 Ribo-seq datasets using a standardized pipeline; ...

Microsaccades track shifting but not necessarily maintaining covert visual-spatial attention

This useful study demonstrates that microsaccade direction primarily indexes shifts rather than the maintenance of covert spatial attention, offering a focused interpretation that may help reconcile ...

Multimodal single-cell analyses reveal distinct fusion-regulated transcriptional programs in Ewing sarcoma

This valuable study presents an analysis of the gene regulatory networks that contribute to tumour heterogeneity and tumor plasticity in Ewing sarcoma, with key implications for other fusion-driven ...

Determining fragility and robustness to missing data in binary outcome meta-analyses, illustrated with conflicting associations between vitamin D and cancer mortality

This manuscript makes a valuable contribution to the concept of fragility of meta-analyses via the so-called 'ellipse of insignificance for meta-analyses' (EOIMETA). The strength of evidence is solid, ...

Using step selection functions to analyse human mobility using telemetry data in infectious disease epidemiology: a case study of leptospirosis

Step selection functions are a useful tool for analysing fine-scale human movements to understand environmental interactions in the context of infectious disease epidemiology.
