Over the last 100 years, increased food supply relied on more fertiliser use – but what if we could decouple them?

For speech & music aficionados (or fans of contemporary classical music?): New (short&easy&quirky) paper from Andrew Chang M. Florencia Assaneo Xiangbin Teng The human auditory system uses amplitude modulation to distinguish music from speech journals.plos.org/plosbiology/ar… (on rate and regularity)

Very excited to see our paper online! Easy-to-adopt #phenotyping pipeline will help you to classify your #mice according to their #anxiety trait.

PLOS Biology Susanne Gerber LutzLab Very excited to see our paper online! The talk 'No two mice alike' summarizing the main findings of this paper is available Noldus IT noldus.com/webinars#animal

Exposure to #ether messes up wing development in #Drosophila . Orli Snir Michael Elgart &co reveal the #epigenetic basis of this, showing how environmental disruption of protein integrity can shift epigenetic patterning to shape #morphogenesis #PLOSBiology plos.io/3QZwfj1

How does #LungCancer overcome low levels of cholesterol in lung? This study shows that exogenous #cholesterol can be sensed by lung #adenocarcinoma cells, activating de novo biosynthesis via GLI2-FOXA3-HMGCS1, promoting cancer progression #PLOSBiology plos.io/3KmW2OM

Inter-individual variability in vulnerability to #stress is hard to assess. Irina Kovlyagina Susanne Gerber LutzLab &co present an experimental pipeline that enables in-depth investigation of trait #anxiety & stress susceptibility in mice #PLOSBiology plos.io/4bNBA5c

How do we distinguish between music & speech? Using judgments on artificial ambiguous noise clips, Andrew Chang David Poeppel &co show that our #auditory system relies on basic acoustic parameters like amplitude modulation rates & regularities #PLOSBiology plos.io/4e2guBO

Excited to share our latest paper in PLOS Biology: 'The human auditory system uses amplitude modulation to distinguish music from speech.' doi.org/10.1371/journa… Many thanks to my fantastic and supportive collaborators! Xiangbin Teng M. Florencia Assaneo David Poeppel

Morphogenetic movements can generate forces that pull on adjacent tissues and change cell behaviours through mechanics and mechanotransduction, but does this always happen? We find that #Drosophila germband extension is remarkably robust to mesoderm invagination. #morphogenesis

The #phylogenetic tree has been a core conceptual tool for #EvolutionaryBiology for nearly 200 years. Roli Roberts explores the role of the tree as a metaphor, discussing two new #PLOSBiology Essays (by 🧬Jacob L Steenwyk & Casey Dunn) that look to the future plos.io/3VjDSU8
