  • The brain works at more than 10 bits per second

    A recent article makes a claim with far-reaching implications for neuroscience, technology, and society: that the human brain is subject to an information processing ‘speed limit’ of 10 bits per second. Although this speed limit appears to…

  • Endoplasmic reticulum–mitochondria contacts are prime hotspots of phospholipid peroxidation driving ferroptosis

    Endoplasmic reticulum–mitochondria contacts are prime hotspots of phospholipid peroxidation driving ferroptosis

    ER–mitochondria contacts rapidly expand during ferroptosis

    To assess the dynamics of EMCS remodelling induced by lipid-ROS in real time, we first validated the induction of ferroptosis in our cellular model. We used the RAS-selective lethal…
