Population fluctuations are now empirically recognized to be nonlinear, but the governing attractors are poorly understood. Here we show that population dynamics of 457 marine fish stocks from 121 species worldwide are governed by a single attractor that partitions into three archetypes reflecting top predators…

Understanding epistasis (genetic interaction) may shed some light on the genomic basis of common diseases, including disorders of maximum interest due to their high socioeconomic burden, like schizophrenia. Distance correlation is an association measure that characterizes general statistical independence between random…

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition characterized by persistent difficulties in social communication, social interaction, and repetitive behaviors. Early and accurate diagnosis is essential but is often hindered by subjective clinical assessments, limited data availability, and…

Memory consolidation during sleep depends on the precisely timed coordination of hippocampal reactivation with cortical slow oscillations and spindles. In humans this coupling has been characterised correlationally, while causal investigations have required intracranial stimulation in restricted patient cohorts or used…

While protein-RNA interactions are fundamental to post-transcriptional processes, achieving a holistic understanding of their regulatory logic remains challenging. Current computational models often treat binding affinity, interface mapping, and RNA design as isolated tasks, thereby failing to provide a unified…

Among the human senses, hearing is distinguished by its high frequency resolution and sensitivity to spatiotemporal patterns. Accordingly, sonification—the rendering of neural activity as sound for direct perception—has a long history in neuroscience. Although sonification can facilitate exploration of the temporal…

In an era of severe global biodiversity threats, understanding the link between species’ traits and their endangerment helps uncover causes of risk and infer threats to understudied species. Most animals have complex life cycles with distinct stages that may face stage-specific threats. Current conservation frameworks…

The final ALPS index for each participant was calculated as the average of the values obtained from both hemispheres. Additional details of the DTI-ALPS analysis are provided in Supplementary Method [cns71039-supitem-0001]. 2.5### Statistical Analysis All statistical analyses were conducted using SPSS Statistics (IBM…

The development of climate-resilient crops would be greatly accelerated by models able to reason directly over plant genomic sequences and to pinpoint trait-associated regions or loci. Anticipating the impact of DNA base changes (variants) remains challenging, and understanding regulatory mechanisms is still an active…

Data analysis was performed using SPSS 26.0, AMOS 26.0, and FACTOR 12.06.07. Continuous variables are presented as means ± SD, whereas categorical variables are reported as frequencies and percentages. Following the COSMIN guidelines and the Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing (AERA, APA, and NCME…

Comparative studies of trajectory inference (TI) methods evaluate complete computational pipelines, making it impossible to isolate how much distortion is introduced specifically by the dimensionality reduction (DR) step. To our knowledge, no study has directly and systematically evaluated how well DR methods alone…

Vegetated riparian buffers play a critical role in maintaining ecological health and water quality, yet efficient characterization and large-scale monitoring remain challenging due to the resource demands of traditional field campaigns. This study, conducted in an agricultural setting, introduces a straightforward…

Allelic heterogeneity is a term from genetics which means that alleles that differ in primary sequence can have a similar phenotypic outcome. In other words, they are functional equivalents, and they naturally appear through convergent evolution under selection. Current GWAS has trouble detecting these instances, as…
