Kavli Affiliate: Li Zhao | Authors: Wei Li, Dahong Li, Li Zhao and Hongyan Li | Summary: The HD-ZIP transcription factor family plays crucial roles in plant growth and abiotic stress responses. While its diverse functions and regulatory mechanisms are well-documented, its role in conferring abiotic stress tolerance in peaches remains largely unexplored. Here, we […]

Kavli Affiliate: Franck Polleux Attila Losonczy | Authors: Justin K. O’Hare, Jamie Wang, Margjele D. Shala, Franck Polleux and Attila Losonczy | Summary: Hippocampal pyramidal neurons support episodic memory by integrating complementary information streams into new ‘place fields’. Distal tuft dendrites are thought to initiate place field formation via plateau potentials. However, the hitherto experimental […]
Kavli Affiliate: John Serences | Authors: Anna Shafer-Skelton, Timothy F Brady and John T Serences | Summary: Understanding 3D representations of spatial information, particularly in naturalistic scenes, remains a significant challenge in vision science. This is largely because of conceptual difficulties in disentangling higher-level 3D information from co-occurring features and cues (e.g., the 3D shape […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiaoqin Wang | Authors: Chaoqun Cheng, Zijian Huang, Ruiming Zhang, Guozheng Huang, Han Wang, Likai Tang and Xiaoqin Wang | Summary: The common marmoset has become an important experimental animal model in scientific research. The ability to capture and quantify behaviors of marmosets in natural environment and social scenarios is highly desired by […]
