摘要:It is widely assumed that the first placental mammals were solitary. Here, we tested this assumption and which ecological and life history factors are related to mammalian social organization. We compiled a comprehensive database by reviewing over 14,000 primary peer-reviewed publications on the social organization of the 5,390 extant placental mammal species. We found empirical data for 726 species across 1,473 populations: 353 populations were primarily solitary, 250 populations pair living,...

摘要:Most widely studied option evaluation strategies rely on knowledge accumulated across repeated experiences. But how should options be evaluated in unfamiliar environments, in which knowledge is sparse? In these situations, how do decision makers make efficient use of limited past experience to guide their choices? One possible strategy is episodic sampling, in which a decision maker retrieves a small number of past decisions from memory to estimate the value of present options. By virtue of th...

摘要:Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by impaired social communication and repetitive behaviors, with genetic studies implicating widespread synaptic dysfunction. However, the contribution of presynaptic vesicle trafficking mechanisms to ASD pathogenesis remains incompletely understood. Here, we identify synaptotagmin-like protein 4 (SYTL4), a RAB27A effector previously characterized in secretory cells, as a regulator of presynaptic function in the mamm...

摘要:Mutations provide the raw material for evolution, but mutation rates are not uniform across genomes. Using a mutation accumulation experiment in the marine phytoplankton Bigelowiella natans, we found extreme local variation in mutation rate: over 1,000-fold differences across its nuclear genome. While the baseline single-nucleotide mutation rate is approximately 3.5 & times; 10-10 per site per generation, a common value for unicellular species, two genomic regions derived from integrated virus...

摘要:Christopher A. Sims, who died on March 14, 2026, left behind an indelible mark on macroeconomics and econometrics. His Nobel Prize winning research reshaped the paradigm for empirical macroeconomics, creating a rigorous and flexible framework for inferring the effects of macroeconomic policies. He also made important contributions to time series forecasting, Bayesian econometrics, factor modeling, approximation theory, and models of monetary and fiscal policy. Few academics have had as direct ...
