Improving flood detection with large-scale dashboard camera data
Abstract Flooding poses a significant and growing challenge globally, threatening infrastructure, livelihoods, and public safety. However, current methods for detecting floods are li...
Transcriptomic profiling of human brown and white adipose tissue depots
Abstract Human adipose tissues are solid organs distributed throughout the body in specific locations and are thought to have dichotomous functions: white adipose tissue stores trigl...
Observation of discrete time quasicrystal in Rydberg atomic gases
Active conformations of neuronal Na+, K+-ATPase isoforms and a disease-causing mutant
A physics-informed eikonal model for simulating arrhythmias in the human heart in real-time
Abstract Personalized computational models of cardiac electrophysiology, referred to as cardiac digital twins, are considered a key technology for realizing precision cardiology by t...
Charting higher-order models of brain function beyond pairwise interactions
Casimir stabilization of fluctuating electronic nematic order
Abstract The field of vacuum cavity control of quantum materials aims to engineer quantum materials through electromagnetic zero-point fluctuations. In this work...
Frequency conversion of highly charged femtosecond spatiotemporal optical vortices in cascaded nonlinear crystals
Abstract The degrees of freedom inherent in spatiotemporal optical vortices (STOVs) afford intriguing opportunties to manipulate complex light fields for broad a...
The response regulator BqsR/CarR controls Fe2+ acquisition in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Wave morphing towards the flat-top envelope in photonics systems driven by artificial gauge fields
Abstract In quantum physics, classical optics, and many other wave systems, wave confinement in a finite domain leads to discrete eigenstates that typically exhibit spatially nonunif...
High efficiency gold extraction by 2D metallic 1T/1T′ phase transition metal dichalcogenides
Distinct differentiation trajectories leave lasting impacts on gene regulation and function of V2a neurons
Abstract V2a interneurons are excitatory neurons found throughout the hindbrain and spinal cord, two regions that arise from distinct progenitors during embryonic development. Whethe...
CELF2 promotes 4R Tau splicing via nuclear clustering and drives cognitive dysfunction in tauopathy models
Split intron-exon system for circular RNA synthesis
Iron deficiency strategy toward single-phase high-entropy M-type ferrites for broadband millimeter-wave absorption with low thickness
Neural and computational mechanisms of effort under the pressure of a deadline
Abstract Deadlines fundamentally shape motivation. Research examining effort-based choices finds effort is an avoided cost. However, this overlooks how making progress on longer-term...
Metal pre-intercalation promotes water-mediated proton-coupled electron transfer in layered δ-MnO2 for aqueous pseudocapacitive energy storage
Abstract The charge storage capacitance of δ-MnO 2 -based pseudocapacitors stems from a combination of bulk cation interc...
Anti-malaria antibody engineering broadens recognition motifs and reveals new homotypic interactions that enhance protective breadth
Hyperdimensional in-memory computing with analogue memristive crossbar arrays
The OmniAge compendium of aging omic biomarkers links mitotic clocks to clonal hematopoiesis and causality
Structural Basis of Amyloid Fibril Assembly by Plant Seed Storage Proteins
Forests in protected areas worldwide face increased thermal pressure from urbanization
Abstract Protected areas (PAs), thermal refuges for biodiversity, are increasingly under pressure from urbanization. Gaps remain in how urbanization worldwide influences the thermal...
Skeletal muscle properties in long COVID and ME/CFS differ from those induced by bed rest
Abstract Patients with long COVID and myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) suffer from post-exertional malaise. The accompanying physical inactivity may contri...
Low-burden AI approach for cross-national early identification of cognitive impairment using real-world questionnaire response behaviours
Abstract Under-recognition of cognitive impairment remains a major global public health challenge, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Many cases go unrecognised becaus...
Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 impairs the release sites of Parkinson’s disease vulnerable dopamine axons
Abstract Parkinson’s disease (PD) is defined pathologically by loss of dopamine-producing neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc). Yet synaptic dysfunction emerges much e...
