Soukup et al. (2016), in this issue of Neuron, and Murdoch et al. (2016), in Cell Reports, reveal an unexpected function for the endocytic protein endophilin in autophagosome formation at synapses: preventing neurodegeneration and ataxia.

Predators may communicate silently through olfactory compounds in urine, faeces, and glandular secretions. Infochemicals and metabolites consist of both non-polar (short-chain fatty acids and their metabolites) and polar (sulphur-based and associated carrier proteins) compounds that interact to provide multiple layers of information to conspecifics (Brennan 2009). Information within urine can c...

It has not been a simple matter to obtain a sound extension of the classical J2 flow theory of plasticity that incorporates a dependence on plastic strain gradients and that is capable of capturing size-dependent behaviour of metals at the micron scale. Two classes of basic extensions of classical J2 theory have been proposed: one with increments in higher order stresses related to increments o...

In this paper we reconsider the standard formulation of the Second Law of Thermodynamics in the general framework of fields with divergence measure, using Geometric Measure Theory and some recent results on Cauchy interactions. To our knowledge, the first attempt to put the Second Law of Thermodynamics within the framework of Geometric Measure Theory is Gurtin, Williams, Ziemer. Recently, the p...
