  • The idea of 'random walks' pops up in areas from biochemical reaction pathways to animals' foraging strategies. A central question — how likely is it that a walker is somewhere for the first time? — now has a simpler answer.

  • In situ sampling reveals that members of the SAR11 clade show significantly lower retention by mucous filter feeders, and that this is probably due to their reduced hydrophobic cell surface, suggesting that cell surface properties are important factors in predator–prey interactions.

  • The motion of three particles on a ring should be easy to model. But the behaviour of such a simple system is not ergodic — that is, it cannot be assumed that the system will always sample its ‘phase space’ in the same way.
