Proteomics experiments on Drosophila reveal sex-specific effects in aging, and an important role for a protein called DIP-β.

For more than a century, the story of the brain has been told as a tale of neurons, with every thought and memory traced to their electrical chatter. That narrative is now being rewritten as evidence ...
