Summary: Neurons in the medial entorhinal cortex can flexibly alter their firing properties to support navigation and memory. This study shows that the entorhinal circuit can rapidly and reversibly transition between different spatial maps even in the absence of discrete contexts, by translating along a single dimension in the population-level activity space.

Summary: Hiring appropriate editors, chairs, and committee members for academic journals and conferences is challenging. This paper proposes a relevance-based author ranking algorithm to measure the significance of authors to individual venues. The algorithm is able to identify both high profile scholars and those who are particularly significant for individual venues.

Summary: The study found that different multi-authorship indices have varying levels of correlation in ranking authors, with some showing strong correlation, weak correlation, and even negative correlation. In the top 10% rankings, the g(f)-index successfully brought in most of the award winners, but none of the indices were able to include all of the awardees in the list of top ranked authors.

Summary: This article compares the efficacy of SER-109 and fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) in preventing recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection. The recurrence rate was lower than expected in the placebo group, while FMT showed benefits in preventing recurrent C. difficile infection among patients with a history of multiple cases.

Summary: This study describes the academic impact and author characteristics of open-access journals in otolaryngology. The findings indicate that articles published in open-access journals in this field have significantly fewer citations and lower academic impact compared to subscription-based journals.

Summary: Payment for ecosystem services (PES) has gained popularity as a potential solution to balance environmental degradation and economic development. However, key features such as price differentiation are often overlooked during design and implementation. This study examines China's grassland ecological compensation policy and suggests reforms to allow price differentiation, bottom-up participation, and performance-dependent payments.

Summary: Assessing the academic influence of researchers is a challenging task, and there is currently no universally accepted standard. This study computed 14 metrics to determine potential measures of influence and found high correlations among these metrics. Some metrics showed significant differences in rankings. Certain metrics were closely associated with award winners, and there was some relationship between specific societies and metrics.

Summary: International scientific societies nominate researchers for awards based on qualitative judgments using subjective assessments. There is a lack of established criteria for evaluating the quality of work, leading to complex issues in determining the best parameter for mapping experts' qualitative evaluation. Various quantitative parameters have been proposed, but their effectiveness in award nominations remains unclear.

Summary: The prevalence of NASH is increasing, highlighting the need to identify new targetable pathways for treatment. DT-109 has shown potential in attenuating steatohepatitis and fibrosis in mice, and a nonhuman primate model mimicking human NASH has been developed to enhance translatability. Using a multiomics approach, it was found that DT-109 reverses hepatic steatosis and prevents fibrosis progression, suggesting the need for clinical evaluation of DT-109.
