In bioreactor experiments, budding yeast can manifest stable metabolic oscillations. In some instances these oscillations involve the cell cycle and are associated with a dynamical phenomenon called temporal clustering. Since yeast divide asymmetrically, mother cells may be able to divide sooner than the smaller daughter cells. We show that asymmetric division plus positive feedback can result in stable temporal clustering. In this scenario, the cells self-organize into $p$ clusters of mother ce
A new review links to eating less protein to longer lifespans and improved metabolism. But lots of this evidence comes from animals, not humans.
Network control theory applied to structural connectomes typically ranks brain regions as candidate driver nodes by their structural connectivity strength, and evaluates performance through scalar control energy. We test whether this framing captures the most relevant information about how driver-node selection shapes brain network control. We introduce an alternative criterion based on the persistent topological cycles in which each node participates---a measure of mesoscale integration that ca

Environmental DNA (eDNA) has emerged as a novel tool for quantifying the seasonal abundance of aquatic species in water bodies; however, its mathematical modeling is still at a germinating stage because of its mechanistic uncertainties. We propose a first-step mathematical and computational framework for the eDNA dynamics of migratory fish based on a novel stochastic partial differential equation model with a delayed source input. The model governs spatiotemporal eDNA concentration in rivers whe

Conservatives who have long pushed for Medicaid work requirements often said vulnerable people would get a pass. But the federal government's list of exemptions left off homeless people.
Eli Lilly confirmed that it will allow more patients to apply for early access to retatrutide, an unapproved obesity drug
An NHS trust could lose up to 330 posts and a union says there will be "consequences" for patients.
The UK is seeing a sharp rise in cases - 67 since April - with many of them among travellers returning from Mexico.

The growing scale and structural complexity of neuroscience datasets have made dataset inspection an increasingly distinct stage of the research workflow. Existing inspection workflows, however, remain fragmented, often relying on exploratory scripts, manual documentation, and repeated navigation of unfamiliar file structures before meaningful scientific analysis can begin. Here we present NeuroInspector, a lightweight, browser-based environment for inspecting HDF5 and NWB files. Using WebAssemb
After a year of pain and his right knee 'locking', keen club runner Tom Hooper, 43, happily agreed to surgery thinking it would mean an end to the problem.
Experimental and theoretical studies of circadian rhythms have focused largely on the period, on mutants that alter it and on phase shifts, and this focus has driven the identification of clock genes and clarified how clocks entrain to light--dark cycles. The waveform of the oscillation itself, by contrast, has attracted little attention as an indicator of the properties of the underlying oscillator. To assess the waveform directly, we focus on whether the trajectory in the plane spanned by a va

The FDA, while promising flexibility in approving Baby KJ-type gene editing, still has set standards difficult for a small startup to meet.
In mid-coast Maine a grassroots coalition is fighting to prevent the proposed closure of Miles Hospital's labor and delivery center.
Data published today found that diagnoses of gestational diabetes have risen by 60 per cent in just five years.
Up to 95% of younger women at higher risk of developing breast cancer are being missed, researchers say.
The six-time Olympic gold medallist, 50, revealed in late 2024 that he had been diagnosed with the disease, which kills more than 12,000 men per year.
Whole-body dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans are routinely acquired to measure bone density and regional body composition, leaving their spatial structure largely unused. Here, we show that self-supervised learning (SSL) can convert raw DXA images into representations of systemic health. We introduce LeDXA, a vision model based on a joint-embedding predictive architecture (JEPA) that learns by predicting latent representations rather than reconstructing pixels. Trained from scratch on

Cross-site identification of major depressive disorder (MDD) from resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) is hindered by inter-site distribution shifts and heterogeneous functional connectivity (FC) views. These views capture complementary neural relationships but exhibit distinct site biases and graph topologies, complicating alignment without sacrificing disease-relevant information or cross-view consistency. Existing studies largely treat multi-view connectome learning a

Foraging is a universal animal behavior that has increasingly attracted the interest of both experimentalists and theorists. Most prior models assume an animal knows the distribution of resources in its environment, but this structure must be learned as the animal explores its environment. Foraging can thus be regarded as a hierarchical inference problem. We develop a normative Bayesian account of an agent learning a patchy environment while exploiting it, and show that resource depletion shapes
