Multimodal AI and tumour microenvironment integration predicts metastasis in cutaneous melanoma
Abstract Accurate prognostication is essential to guide clinical management in localised cutaneous melanoma (CM), the form of skin cancer with the highest mortality. While the tumour...
Genome degradation results in nested symbiosis and endosymbiont replacement in cicadas
Positional programs in early murine facial development and their role in human facial shape variability
Abstract The face is a complex, variable structure shaped by environmental and functional adaptations. In humans, the remarkable diversity of facial shapes underpins identity and mut...
