  • The authors use fMRI in rats to show that covert sensory input influences the dynamics of resting state brain activity. This indicates a mechanism by which the environment shapes neural function even in the absence of explicit stimuli or tasks.

  • Targeted manipulations of neural activity in the living brain remain a significant challenge. In this study the authors introduce a paramagnetic analog of the drug muscimol that enables targeted neural inactivation to be performed with feedback from magnetic resonance imaging

  • Noninvasive detection of molecular targets in living subjects could provide valuable insights into healthy function and disease. Here, the authors develop vasoactive imaging probes which allow wide-field in vivo mapping of nanomolar-level molecular species in rat brain.

  • Molecular and functional magnetic resonance imaging in the rat reveals distinct neuromodulatory effects of striatal dopamine that extend beyond peak release sites and activate remote neural populations necessary for performing motivated actions.

  • There are only few MRI-compatible calcium reporters and they are limited to measuring extracellular calcium levels. Here the authors develop and validate a cell-permeable, manganese-based paramagnetic MRI contrast agent that enables monitoring intracellular calcium signals in vivo in the rat brain.

  • Magnetic manipulation of biological systems requires the development of improved molecular handles. Here the authors isolate ferritin mutants with enhanced biomineralization from a yeast genetic screen and show their application to cell separation, multiscale imaging, and construction of sensors.

  • The vasculature produces strong endogenous contrast in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Here Desai et al. report genetically encoded imaging probes derived from the vasodilator, calcitonin gene-related peptide, which allows visualization of molecular events via haemodynamic changes in optical imaging or MRI.

  • Magnetic resonance imaging of hemoglobin in the brain can detect blood flow associated with neural activity, but direct imaging of neurotransmitters would provide a more sensitive measure of neural signal processing. Shapiro et al. use directed evolution to generate a protein probe that enables magnetic resonance imaging of the neurotransmitter dopamine.

  • Magneto-fluorescent nanoparticles hold promise for bioimaging applications, but synthesizing uniform particles with tunable sizes remains challenging. Chen et al. propose an approach for co-assembling magnetic particles with fluorescent quantum dots, leading to well-defined core-shell structures.

  • The implementation of ethics review processes is an important first step for anticipating and mitigating the potential harms of AI research. Its long-term success, however, requires a coordinated community effort, to support experimentation with different ethics review processes, to study their effect, and to provide opportunities for diverse voices from the community to share insights and foster norms.

  • Artificial compartments have been expressed in prokaryotes and yeast, but similar capabilities have been missing for mammalian cell engineering. Here the authors use bacterial encapsulins to engineer genetically controlled multifunctional orthogonal compartments in mammalian cells.
