Extensive studies suggest the brain performs Bayesian inference to infer the latent world states. It is a fundamental neuroscience question that how canonical recurrent neural circuits in the brain implement Bayesian inference. Many existing theoretical studies focused on how the recurrent circuits compute the…

Variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in mismatch repair (MMR) genes represent a persistent bottleneck in germline interpretation for Lynch syndrome, creating a critical opportunity to leverage tumor biology to refine pathogenicity assessment. Although tumor features such as microsatellite instability (MSI) and…

DNA findings on clothing are often evaluated at sub-source level to address whether a person contributed DNA to a sample. In many cases, however, the disputed issue is not whose DNA is present, but how the DNA was transferred. This paper applies the HaloGen framework to evaluate DNA findings on stockings under…

In the springs of 2012-2013, Russian Federation scientists conducted aerial surveys of ice-associated seals (including bearded, ribbon, ringed, and spotted seals) in the Sea of Okhotsk and in Russian waters of the western Bering Sea. These instrument-based surveys used a combination of thermal imaging and digital…

First-in-human studies require dose extrapolation from pharmacokinetic animal studies combined with safety assessments. Subtherapeutic doses of radiolabelled drugs can be administered in preclinical and early clinical development to gain a dynamic pharmacokinetic understanding, potentially informing…

Diffusion decision models (DDMs) offer the potential to go beyond standard accuracy and response-time indices to better understand perceptual decision-making in autism. One unanswered question is whether autistic participants can flexibly adjust the speed and accuracy of their decision-making according to task demands.…

Mendelian randomization (MR) has been widely used to infer causal relationships between exposures and outcomes in epidemiological studies. However, classical MR assumptions can be violated when genetic variants are associated with outcomes through pathways other than the exposure, leading to uncorrelated and/or…

How transient neural representations become integrated and stable enough to function as internal neural models remains incompletely understood. Grounded in efficient coding, Bayesian and predictive frameworks, recurrent and attractor dynamics, neural state-space models, and systems neuroscience, the Principle of…

Key message Integrating high-throughput phenotyping with multiple complementary GWAS models reduces method-dependent bias and enables reliable identification of novel loci and elite germplasm for durable yellow and leaf rust resistance in wheat. Abstract The causal agents of yellow and leaf rust in wheat, Puccinia…
