Muscoloni and Cannistraci (1) comment on our motivation and rationale for using the efficiency ratio to assess the feasibility of navigation routing as a model of communication in nervous systems embedded in Euclidean space (2). Recent work by these authors in the field of network physics evaluates navigation in hyperbolic space using the greedy routing score (3), a measure equivalent to the efficiency ratio.

The efficiency ratio (ER) is the ratio of the efficiency of navigation paths (E) to that of shortest paths (E …

Putative signature of monogamy
A study suggests a putative gene-expression hallmark common to monogamous male vertebrates of some species, namely cichlid fishes, dendrobatid frogs, passeroid songbirds, common voles, and deer mice, and identifies 24 candidate genes potentially associated with monogamy.

Meaningful life tied to healthy aging
Physical and social well-being in old age are linked to self-assessments of life worth, and a spectrum of behavioral, economic, health, and social variables may influence whether aging individuals believe they are leading meaningful lives.
