Pantr2, a trans-acting lncRNA, modulates the differentiation potential of neural progenitors in vivo

Kavli Affiliate: Seth Blackshaw, Loyal Goff | Authors: Jonathan J Augustin, Saki Takayangi, Thanh Hoang, Briana Winer, Seth Blackshaw and Loyal A Goff | Summary: Abstract Ablation of the long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) Pantr2 re- sults in microcephaly in a knockout murine model of cor- ticogenesis, however, the precise mechanisms used are un- known. We […]

Biogeography of human-health associated butyrate-producing bacteria

Kavli Affiliate: Robert Edwards | Authors: Joel E Brame, Craig Liddicoat, Catherine A Abbott, Robert A Edwards, Jake M Robinson, Nicolas E Gauthier and Martin F Breed | Summary: Abstract Butyrate-producing bacteria are found in many ecosystems and organisms, including humans. They ferment organic matter, producing the by-product butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid with important […]

Unweighted estimation based on optimal sample under measurement constraints

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Jing Wang, HaiYing Wang, Shifeng Xiong, , | Summary: To tackle massive data, subsampling is a practical approach to select the more informative data points. However, when responses are expensive to measure, developing efficient subsampling schemes is challenging, and an optimal sampling approach under measurement constraints was […]

Multi-Modal Human Authentication Using Silhouettes, Gait and RGB

Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Yuxiang Guo, Cheng Peng, Chun Pong Lau, Rama Chellappa, | Summary: Whole-body-based human authentication is a promising approach for remote biometrics scenarios. Current literature focuses on either body recognition based on RGB images or gait recognition based on body shapes and walking patterns; both have their advantages […]

Dopamine signaling regulates predator-driven behavioral changes in Caenorhabditis elegans

Kavli Affiliate: Sreekanth Chalasani | Authors: Amy Pribadi, Kaila Rosales, Kirthi C Reddy and Sreekanth H Chalasani | Summary: Abstract Prey respond to predators by altering their behavior to optimize their own fitness and survival. We probe the interactions between Caenorhabditis elegans and its naturally cohabiting predator Pristionchus uniformis to reveal the pathways driving changes […]

Oscillations and aperiodic activity: Evidence for dynamic changes in both during memory encoding

Kavli Affiliate: Bradley Voytek | Authors: Michael Preston, Natalie Schaworonkow and Bradley Voytek | Summary: Abstract Electrical recordings of human brain activity via electroencephalography (EEG) show prominent, rhythmic voltage fluctuations. These periodic oscillations have been linked to nearly every cognitive and perceptual process, as well numerous disease states. Recent methodological and theoretical advances, however, have […]

Neural representational geometry correlates with behavioral differences between monkeys

Kavli Affiliate: Stefano Fusi | Authors: Valeria Fascianelli, Fabio Stefanini, Satoshi Tsujimoto, Aldo Genovesio and Stefano Fusi | Summary: Abstract Animals likely use a variety of strategies to solve laboratory tasks. Traditionally, combined analysis of behavioral and neural recording data across subjects employing different strategies may obscure important signals and give confusing results. Hence it […]

VLBA reveals the absence of a compact radio core in the radio intermediate quasar J2242+0334 at z =5.9

Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Yuanqi Liu, Ran Wang, Emmanuel Momjian, Yingkang Zhang, Tao An | Summary: High-resolution imaging is crucial for exploring the origin and mechanism of radio emission in quasars, especially at high redshifts. We present 1.5 GHz Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) images of the radio continuum emission from […]
