Coulson, who was a graduate student with Staples and Guglielmo at the time, led a study on the yellow-rumped warbler, a songbird that migrates between Canada, where it nests, and its wintering grounds in the United States, Mexico and the Caribbean. First, during the birds’ fall migration, they captured the southbound songbirds and brought them into the lab. There, they managed the birds’ exposure to light and darkness to create two laboratory groups of “migratory” and “nonmigratory” warblers. Th

There’s unexpected movement in the world of cell biology — specifically, with the energy factories known as mitochondria. Ever since they were discovered in the mid-nineteenth century, mitochondria have been known as organelles that reside inside cells. But that textbook picture now seems to be wrong. An explosion of research is challenging mitochondria’s long-standing image as exclusively cellular organelles. “They may be a multicellular organelle,” says Jonathan Brestoff, an immunologist who
