Transient, developmental exposure to patient-derived anti-NMDA receptor autoantibodies causes long-term axonal and behavioral defects

Posted by klaurent UCSF

Kavli Affiliate: Samuel Pleasure | Authors: Jing Zhou, Ariele Greenfield, Rita Loudermilk, Christopher Bartley, Baouyen Tran, Chao Zhao, Hong Wang, Michael Wilson and Samuel Pleasure | Summary: Abstract NMDA receptor autoimmune encephalitis (NMDAR-AE) is characterized by cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-resident anti-NMDA receptor autoantibodies that cause behavioral and neurologic deficits. Although many symptoms are responsive to immunotherapy, […]

Uncertainty estimations methods for a deep learning model to aid in clinical decision-making — a clinician’s perspective

Posted by klaurent Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Michael Dohopolski, Kai Wang, Biling Wang, Ti Bai, Dan Nguyen | Summary: Prediction uncertainty estimation has clinical significance as it can potentially quantify prediction reliability. Clinicians may trust ‘blackbox’ models more if robust reliability information is available, which may lead to more models being adopted into clinical […]

Neutrino propagation in the Earth and emerging charged leptons with $texttt{nuPyProp}$

Posted by klaurent Chicago

Kavli Affiliate: Angela V. Olinto | First 5 Authors: Diksha Garg, Sameer Patel, Mary Hall Reno, Alexander Ruestle, Yosui Akaike | Summary: Ultra-high-energy neutrinos serve as messengers of some of the highest energy astrophysical environments. Given that neutrinos are neutral and only interact via weak interactions, neutrinos can emerge from sources, traverse astronomical distances, and […]

Liquid Crystals as Multifunctional Interfaces for Trapping and Characterizing Microplastics

Posted by klaurent Cornell

Kavli Affiliate: Nicholas L. Abbott | First 5 Authors: Fiona Mukherjee, Anye Shi, Xin Wang, Fengqi You, Nicholas L. Abbott | Summary: Identifying and removing microplastics (MPs) from the environment is a global challenge. This study explores how the colloidal fraction of common MPs behave at aqueous interfaces of liquid crystal (LC) films. We observed […]
