Quantitative assessment of optic nerve health requires metrics beyond axon counts alone. Axon density and glial coverage fraction correlate with clinical measures of visual function, yet no existing automated tool extracts optic nerve cross-sectional boundaries to enable their calculation. We developed MONICA…

Web applications (web apps) have become a key arena for large language models (LLMs) to demonstrate their code generation capabilities and commercial potential. However, building a benchmark for LLM-generated web apps remains challenging due to the need for real-world user requirements, generalizable evaluation metrics…

This paper presents the design and implementation of a user-friendly, automated web application that simplifies and optimizes the web scraping process for non-technical users. The application breaks down the complex task of web scraping into three main stages: fetching, extraction, and execution. In the fetching stage…

Aptamers are short single-stranded nucleic acids that bind protein targets with high specificity and are increasingly used in diagnostics and therapeutics, yet experimental discovery remains slow and variable in success. This creates a demand for computational systems that not only score candidate binders but also…

Genome browsers are essential for understanding genomic data in detail but use incompatible data repository formats and access protocols, limiting their use. We present a new web application Hub Façade that translates the Track Hub format used by the UCSC Genome Browser into the Quickload format used by the Integrated…

—Web Application Firewalls are crucial for protecting web applications against a wide range of cyber threats. Traditional Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) often struggle to effectively distinguish between malicious and legitimate traffic, leading to limited efficacy in threat detection. To overcome these limitations…

Differential gene expression analysis (DEA) via RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is essential but remains challenging for wet-lab biologists due to command-line complexities. Centralized web platforms democratize this process but suffer from server congestion, long queuing delays, data privacy risks with proprietary datasets…

Untargeted metabolomics is a powerful approach for exploring the chemical diversity and dynamics of biological systems. However, the types of questions that can be addressed depend not only on experimental design but also on the data processing and analysis workflows employed, many of which require advanced…

Antimicrobial resistance and tolerance pose escalating global health threats, necessitating reproducible and accessible tools for antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST). While disk diffusion assays (DDAs) and Epsilometer tests (Etests) are widely used, there are limited open-source tools to analyze them. We present…

As the number of natural and man-made catastrophes has increased in recent years, there has been an increasing need for quicker and more efficient disaster response. Information from traditional sources, such as radio, television, and websites, is sometimes incomplete or delayed. While mobile applications provide a…

I normally end my editorial with acknowledgements. However, this year, there is more to report. As I wrote earlier, this year’s Issue includes fewer manuscripts than usual. While the number of proposals remained broadly stable in recent years, the number of accepted manuscripts has steadily declined. Two major reasons…

We present a software architecture to enable end user driven innovation of web multimedia communication applications. RTC Helper is a simple and easy-to-use software that can intercept WebRTC (web real-time communication) and related APIs in the browser, and change the behavior of web apps in real-time. Such…

AI-driven molecular generation encounters a "generation-synthesis gap": most computationally designed molecules cannot be synthesized in laboratories, limiting AI-assisted drug design (AIDD) applications. Current approaches to assess synthetic accessibility (SA) include computer-aided synthesis planning (CASP) tools…

In this paper we introduce and discuss an approach for multiagent-oriented visual programming. This aims at enabling individuals without programming experience but with knowledge in specific target domains to design and (re)configure autonomous software. We argue that, compared to procedural programming, it should be…
