Investigating the analytical robustness of the social and behavioural sciences

When 100 social and behavioural science claims were examined, 34% of reanalyses closely matched the original results, with 74% reaching the same conclusion, revealing limited robustness of single-path analyses and the need to address analytical uncertainty.

Global remapping of the sensory homunculus emerges early in childhood development

Children born without a hand show early, widespread changes in brain maps, with body parts shifting across the homunculus. Adaptive behaviours explain individual differences but cannot override this early, deprivation-driven remapping.

A benchmarking framework for embodied neuromorphic agents

Combining soft robotics with neuromorphic engineering is a promising approach in embodied intelligence. Giulia d’Angelo et al. contribute to progress in this field by developing a framework for benchmarking neuromorphic controllers on soft robotic platforms.

Concordant inter-laboratory derived concentrations of ceramides in human plasma reference materials via authentic standards

Here, the authors compared measurements between 34 laboratories from 19 countries, to quantify by mass spectrometry four ceramides of clinical relevance in human blood plasma Standard Reference Materials. The main goals were to evaluate concordance obtained in a large inter-laboratory trial and to report absolute concentrations of four circulating lipids in a publicly available standard.
