It provides evidence for the feasibility of using combined graph convolutional neural network and transformers’ based systems with patient demographics, and CT-derived imaging features as inputs into the transformer model for survival prediction in early stage lung cancer patients.

Kipferl, a ZAD zinc finger protein from Drosophila, determines the chromatin binding specificity of the heterochromatin protein variant Rhino, defining piRNA clusters and preventing Rhino sequestration by selfish Satellite repeats.

Experimental manipulations of social groups of ostriches show that the benefits of cooperative parental care for females, and the costs of sexual competition for males, lead to sex differences in optimal group sizes.

Mountain gorillas, who live in close-knit social groups with siblings and non-siblings of both sexes throughout their lives, show distinct behavioral biases towards maternal versus paternal kin.

The RNA-binding protein Elavl1 directly binds to and stabilizes a single gene product—Draxin mRNA—to prevent premature delamination and maintain specification in cranial neural crest.
Unbiased proteomics and molecular analysis revealed a new role for S6K1 in regulating DNA repair through the orchestrated phosphorylation of CDK1 and MSH6. The findings may explain why RPS6KB1 gene amplification contributed to breast cancer drug resistance.

In vivo genetic experiments show that aberrant expression of a transcription factor can compromise the functionality of neurons which is important to better understand the potential mechanisms underlying neuropathologies.

A novel approach to studying anxiety reveals that learned anxiety and diazepam treatment have unique roles on prefrontal cortex and ventral tegmental area activity.

An original molecular multi-step approach integrating DNA methylome and chromosome-cluster localization cross-analysis identified a DNA methylation signature of patient outcome supporting that the core DNA methylation for a given trait is independent of the physiological context under which it arises.
