  • It is unclear whether the mechanisms giving rise to aggression in animals are conserved across the animal kingdom. Here, the authors show that knockdown of tailless, an orthologue of a mouse gene involved in aggression, leads to increased aggression in Drosophila, suggesting that the molecular mechanisms behind aggression are conserved.

  • Synthetic gene circuits can be programmed in living cells to perform diverse cellular functions. Here, the authors program a genetic circuit that performs a Pavlovian-like learning and recall function in E. coli, and demonstrate the dynamic nature of this conditioning process at a population level.

  • The authors show that, unlike the consolidation and refinement of excitatory connections observed during sensory map formation, a dramatic broadening of patterned activation domains, connectivity, and tuning occurs in interneurons in the olfactory bulb. This developmental expansion is sensitive to activity manipulations and may reveal general principles of interneuron network development.
