We’ve just announced that more than 100 funders and institutions combined continue to consider eLife papers when evaluating research contributions – regardless of our Impact Factor loss last year.

An elegant screening strategy unveils a molecular actor that connects widespread changes in mRNA processing with a nutrient-sensing protein modification.

Life has been announced as a winner in the first Crossref Metadata Awards, recognising its commitment to high-quality ...

In this valuable study, the authors demonstrate that TCF7L2 plays a role in the pathogenesis of cachexia in a mouse model of GI cancer. The results are solid, although future studies will need further ...

Effective mucosal immunity in the intestine involves a fine balance between tolerance of the microbiome, recognition and elimination of pathogens, and inflammatory tissue injury. The anti-inflammatory ...

This valuable study presents an analysis of evolutionary conservation in intrinsically disordered regions, identified as key drivers of phase separation, leveraging a protein language model. The ...

Efforts to estimate the reproducibility of published research results have focused on specific areas of research to date, ...

Conversations with research organisations offer reassurance to researchers and highlight growing momentum behind fairer, more transparent models of scientific publishing and assessment.

Disease-causing mutations in the signaling protein BMP4 impair its secretion, but only when it is made as a homodimer.

This paper addresses a valuable research question on the heritability of the brain's response to movie watching, given various parameters such as regional spatial hyperalignment and BOLD frequency ...

The authors aimed to quantify feral pig interactions in eastern Australia to inform disease transmission networks. They used GPS tracking data from 146 feral pigs across multiple locations to ...

This study presents a valuable finding that KDM5 inhibition activates the interferon response and antigen presentation genes in breast cancer cells through R-loops. The evidence supporting the claims ...
