Group size and composition influence collective movement in a highly social terrestrial bird
eLife, 2020 A challenge of group-living is to maintain cohesion while navigating through heterogeneous landscapes. Larger groups benefit from information pooling, translating to greater ‘collective intelligence’, but face increased coordination challenges.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Collective Behaviour: Physiology Determines Position [PDF]
Current Biology, 2018 An animal's position within a group affects feeding - front positions generally offer richer pickings. However, a new study shows that position can be influenced by feeding because big meals reduce scope for locomotion.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

On the integration of collective motion and temporal synchrony in animal collectives
Movement EcologyAnimal groups come in diverse forms—from fish schools swimming in unison to crickets chirping in synchrony. Although these behaviors may seem considerably different to one another, they share a common mathematical core, and can therefore be considered in

Investigating transcription factor dynamics in health and disease using FRAP
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.FRAP analysis of GFP‐tagged transcription factors reveals how molecular mobility and target engagement change in response to drug treatment. By combining live‐cell imaging, quantitative model fitting, and statistical analysis, this approach uncovers transcription factor dynamics linked to disease mechanisms, providing a powerful framework for ...

Adding a psychological dimension to mass gatherings medicine [PDF]
, 2016 Mass gatherings pose distinctive challenges for medicine. One neglected aspect of this is that the behaviour of people participating in such events is different from the behaviour they exhibit in their everyday lives.

Successful coordination emerges from aligned self-predictions in a dynamic motor interaction
Communications PsychologyA central challenge in understanding joint action is explaining how individuals achieve successful coordination in dynamic, real-world settings. Although coordination is thought to depend on anticipating future events, including the actions of others ...

Social networks predict the life and death of honey bees
Nature Communications, 2021 Honey bee workers take on different tasks for the colony as they age. Here, the authors develop a method to extract a descriptor of the individuals’ social networks and show that interaction patterns predict task allocation and distinguish different ...

Conserved binding mode but diverse interfaces of MreC‐PBP2 interactions
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The crystal structure of abMreC reveals a conserved two β‐barrel architecture and provides structural insights into its role within the bacterial elongasome. The abMreC–abPBP2 complex model identifies the molecular basis of MreC‐mediated PBP2 recognition, contributing to the regulation of peptidoglycan synthesis.
