Kavli Affiliate: Mamoru Matsuo | Summary:We theoretically explore the generation of spin current driven by a temperature gradient in a junction between a chiral insulator and a normal metal. Based on the gyromagnetic response induced by microscopic acoustic-phonon-mediated lattice rotation, we derive a formula for the spin current when a finite temperature difference is imposed […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gerbrand Ceder| Summary:Large-scale atomistic simulations are essential to bridge computational materials and chemistry to realistic materials and drug discovery applications. In the past few years, rapid developments of machine learning interatomic potentials (MLIPs) have offered a solution to scale up quantum mechanical calculations. Parallelizing these interatomic potentials across multiple devices poses a challenging, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mark Ellisman | Authors: Jonathan Choy, Shadi Charara, Kalyani Cauwenberghs, Quintyn McKaughan, Keun-Young Kim, Mark Ellisman and Chih-Ying Su | Summary: Dendritic morphology is a defining characteristic of neuronal subtypes. In Drosophila, heterotypic olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) expressing different receptors display diverse dendritic morphologies, but whether such diversity exists among homotypic ORNs remains […]
Kavli Affiliate: Dhakshin Ramanathan and Jyoti Mishra | Authors: Morteza Salimi, Milad Nazari, Jonathan Mishler, Jennifer Rodger, Sahar Jomehpour, Jyoti Mishra and Dhakshin Ramanathan | Summary: Varying inter-train intervals (ITIs) during theta burst stimulation (TBS) differentially modulates neuronal activity in the medial prefrontal cortex. Short ITIs (e.g., ITI 4 s) induce strong glutamatergic excitation but […]
Kavli Affiliate: Priya Rajasethupathy | Authors: Andrea Terceros, Celine Chen, Yujin Harada, Tim Eilers, Millennium Gebremedhin, Richard P Koche, Pierre-Jacques Hamard, Roshan Sharma and Priya Rajasethupathy | Summary: The molecular mechanisms that enable memories to persist over long time-scales from days to weeks and months are still poorly understood. To develop insights we created a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Zhoufaran Yang, Zhoufaran Yang, , , | Summary: Visual texts embedded in videos carry rich semantic information, which is crucial for both holistic video understanding and fine-grained reasoning about local human actions. However, existing video understanding benchmarks largely overlook textual information, while OCR-specific benchmarks are constrained to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Paul Schechter | Summary:Even when used to describe the same phenomenon, equations, graphics and words each give different perspectives and lead to complementary insights. The basic elements of strong gravitational lensing are introduced here favoring words and graphics over equations whenever possible. Fermat’s principle is the fundamental driver of strong lensing. Three "D’s” […]

Kavli Affiliate: Takaki Komiyama | Authors: Qiyu Chen, An Wu, Bin Yu, Soyoung Chae, Zijing Tan, Assaf Ramot, Johnatan Aljadeff and Takaki Komiyama | Summary: During the execution of learned motor skills, the neural population in the layer 2/3 (L2/3) of the primary motor cortex (M1) expresses a reproducible spatiotemporal activity pattern. It is debated […]
