The paper explains 60% of global variation in sapwood-to-leaf area ratio using optimality principles linking plant hydraulics and photosynthesis.

The paper develops population-specific brain charts for Chinese individuals, revealing distinct neurodevelopmental patterns compared to Western populations and showing better performance in predicting brain phenotypes.

The paper identifies spatially specific neurons in the larval zebrafish telencephalon that form a population code for spatial representation, which can decode spatial location and integrate multiple cues.
