Adelaide researchers are challenging decades-old assumptions about brain cancer treatment in a bid to make radiation therapy more effective against tumours, while reducing damage to healthy tissue.
Scientists have developed a new understanding of how fish interact as they school in groups. Fish were found to copy their neighbors to align their movements within schools. The discovery opens a door to examining how the brains of individuals interact to produce group-level collective behavior.

Glycosphingolipids (GSLs) are sugar-containing membrane lipids that help organize cell surfaces and regulate signaling, immune recognition, differentiation and neuronal function. Human cells produce several hundred GSL species through stepwise modification of their sugar groups, and this diversity begins with a single committed reaction, in which uridine diphosphate glucose (UDP-glucose) ceramide
