Personalized and graph genomes reveal missing signal in epigenomic data.
BACKGROUND: Epigenomic studies that use next generation sequencing experiments typically rely on the alignment of reads to a reference sequence. However, because of genetic diversity and the diploid nature of the human genome...

Ten things you should know about transposable elements.
Transposable elements (TEs) are major components of eukaryotic genomes. However, the extent of their impact on genome evolution, function, and disease remain a matter of intense interrogation. The rise of genomics and...

Phosphate Deprivation Can Impair Mechano-Stimulated Cytosolic Free Calcium Elevation in Arabidopsis Roots.
The root tip responds to mechanical stimulation with a transient increase in cytosolic free calcium as a possible second messenger. Although the root tip will grow through a heterogeneous soil nutrient supply, little is known of...

From behavioural simulation to computer models
Simulation is a technique that evokes or replicates substantial aspects of the real world, in order to experiment with a simplified imitation of an operations system, for the purpose of better understanding and/or improving that...

Chemical Reporters for Investigating Lipidated Proteins at the Host-Pathogen Interface
Guillaume Charron
Jan 01, 0001
Lipidation of proteins regulates many cellular processes such as signaling transduction and membrane sorting by modulating protein localization and proteinprotein interactions. As such, defects in protein lipidation can render...

Robust modulation of integrate-and-fire models
By controlling the state of neuronal populations, neuromodulators ultimately affect behaviour. A key neuromodulation mechanism is the alteration of neu- ronal excitability via the modulation of ion channel expression. This type...

Challenges in making standardisation work in healthcare
OBJECTIVE:To identify and learn from efforts to design and implement a standardised policy for labelling of invasive tubing and lines across a regional health system. DESIGN:Single case study involving qualitative interviews and...

Neuroscience out of control
A major challenge in systems neuroscience is to understand how the dynamics of neural circuits give rise to behaviour. Analysis of complex dynamical systems is also at the heart of control engineering, where it is central to the...

The dynamic mechanical properties of cellularised aggregates.
Cellularised materials are composed of cells interfaced through specialised intercellular junctions that link the cytoskeleton of one cell to that of its neighbours allowing for transmission of forces. Cellularised materials are...

Flt3 signaling-dependent dendritic cells protect against atherosclerosis
Early events in atherosclerosis occur in the aortic intima and involve monocytes that become macrophages. We looked for these cells in the steady state adult mouse aorta, and surprisingly, we found a dominance of dendritic cells...

Optimal anticipatory control as a theory of motor preparation
Across a range of motor and cognitive tasks, cortical activity can be accurately described by low-dimensional dynamics unfolding from specific initial conditions on every trial. These "preparatory states" largely determine the...

Cellular switches orchestrate rhythmic circuits.
Small inhibitory neuronal circuits have long been identified as key neuronal motifs to generate and modulate the coexisting rhythms of various motor functions. Our paper highlights the role of a cellular switching mechanism to...

Using clinical simulation to study how to improve quality and safety in healthcare.
Simulation can offer researchers access to events that can otherwise not be directly observed, and in a safe and controlled environment. How to use simulation for the study of how to improve the quality and safety of healthcare...
Guillaumean Linguistics
R.M. Jones
Sep 05, 2013
It has long been suspected that Guillaumean linguistics provided suggestions for literary critics or theorists. Gabriel Guillaume (1962, 1967, 1968) was a pioneer. The most useful summary is Wilmet (1980). But what was lacking...
