We highlight recent developments in eLife’s equity, diversity and inclusion framework and what steps we will be taking next.

In pulmonary hypertension, a combination of metabolic and mechanical dysfunction leads to irreversible vascular damage.

Bumblebees refine visual discrimination through selective and structured scanning, demonstrating a dynamic interplay between movement and perception in pattern recognition.

One notable missing feature in most ANN models is top-down feedback, i.e. projections from higher-order layers to lower-order layers in the network. Top-down feedback is ubiquitous in the brain, and ...

This useful study provides incomplete evidence that TANGO2 homologs, including HRG-9 and HRG-10, are not heme chaperones but play a role in cellular bioenergetics and oxidative stress homeostasis.

Ecological network management provides key mechanistic knowledge on ecosystem degradation that links species- to ecosystem-level responses to global change, and emerging technological tools offer the ...

This study provides valuable findings on the role of site-specific DNA methylation changes during spermatogenesis and their contribution to paternal epigenetic inheritance. The study proposes that ...

Gut microbiota composition and sex hormones influence the immune response to methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus gastrointestinal colonization in mice.

The study provides two important contributions, by convincingly showing that tactile acuity on the breast is poor in comparison to other body parts, and that acuity is worst in larger breasts, ...

Shihabeddin et al utilized single-cell RNA-Seq analysis of adult P23H zebrafish animals to identify transcription factors (e2fs, Prdm1a, Sp1) expressed selectively in neural progenitors and immature ...

Here, we explored how NMDARs signal in tLTD. We found that, regardless of frequency, L5 PC→PC tLTD relies on the non-ionotropic preNMDAR signaling pathway mediated by JNK2, which helps to resolve the ...

A new study has shown that full-genome differences between rotavirus strains influence vaccine effectiveness, highlighting the need for a broader approach to vaccine design.
