Kavli Affiliate: Damon Clark | Authors: Samuel Brudner, Baohua Zhou, Viraaj Jayaram, Gustavo Madeira Santana, Damon Clark and Thierry Emonet | Summary: Odor cues guide animals to food and mates. Different environmental conditions can create differently patterned odor plumes, making navigation more challenging. Prior work has shown that animals turn upwind when they detect odor […]

Kavli Affiliate: Pietro De Camilli | Authors: Michael G Hanna, Hely O Rodriguez Cruz, Kenshiro Fujise, Yumei Wu, C Shan Xu, Song Pang, Li Zhuoning, Mara Monetti and Pietro De Camilli | Summary: Recent studies have identified a family of rod-shaped proteins thought to mediate lipid transfer at intracellular membrane contacts by a bridge-like mechanism. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Pietro De Camilli | Authors: Anbang Dai, Peng Xu, Chase Amos, Kenshiro Fujise, Yumei Wu, Han Yang, Julia N. Eisen, Andrés Guillén-Samander and Pietro De Camilli | Summary: BLTP2/KIAA0100, a bridge-like lipid transfer protein, was reported to localize at contacts of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) with either the plasma membrane (PM) or recycling […]
Kavli Affiliate: Anirvan Nandy | Authors: Feng Xing, Alec Graham Sheffield, Monika P. Jadi, Steve W. C. Chang and Anirvan S. Nandy | Summary: Social communication relies on the ability to perceive and interpret the direction of others’ attention, and is commonly conveyed through head orientation and gaze direction in humans and nonhuman primates. However, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sreeganga Chandra | Authors: D J Vidyadhara, David Backstrom, Risha Chakraborty, Jiapeng Ruan, Jae-Min Park, Pramod K. Mistry and Sreeganga S. Chandra | Summary: GBA mutations are major risk factors for Parkinson′s disease (PD) and Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB), two common α-synucleinopathies associated with cognitive impairment. Here, we investigated the role of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Anirvan Nandy, John Reynolds | Authors: Mitchell P Morton, Sachira Denagamage, Isabel J Blume, John H Reynolds, Monika P Jadi and Anirvan S Nandy | Summary: Identical stimuli can be perceived or go unnoticed across successive presentations, producing divergent behavioral outcomes despite similarities in sensory input. We sought to understand how fluctuations in […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shawn Ferguson | Authors: Amanda Bentley-DeSousa and Shawn Ferguson | Summary: Mutations that increase LRRK2 kinase activity have been linked to Parkinson’s disease and Crohn’s disease. LRRK2 is also activated by lysosome damage evoked by chemical and pathogenic stimuli. However, the endogenous cellular mechanisms that control LRRK2 kinase activity are not well understood. […]
