Behind the Paper
The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows
Urbanization advanced plant phenology in cold, but not warm, areas
Analysis of an integrated database of in situ phenological observations across two continents reveals that high human population densities advance plant flowering and leaf-out dates in cold areas but delay them in warm areas. Urban heat island effects only explained part of this pattern.
Antitumor activity of an engineered decoy receptor targeting CLCF1-CNTFR signaling in lung adenocarcinoma.
In the November issue of Nature Medicine we describe the development of a first-in-class inhibitor of CLCF1 signaling and its effectiveness in several precllinical models of lung adenocarcinoma
