No effect of additional education on long-term brain structure – a preregistered natural experiment in thousands of individuals
A regression discontinuity analysis finds essentially no effect of 1 additional year of secondary education on brain structure in adulthood. This is a valuable finding that adds to the literature on ...

Difficulty in artificial word learning impacts targeted memory reactivation and its underlying neural signatures
Targeted memory reactivation improved memory performance of easy-to-learn words, but had no effect of difficult-to-learn words, which suggests a critical role of word learning difficulty in sleep ...

Distinct functions of three Wnt proteins control mirror-symmetric organogenesis in the C. elegans gonad
Organogenesis requires the proper production of diverse cell types and their positioning/migration. However, the coordination of these processes during development remains poorly understood. The gonad ...
