Gapped-kmer sequence modeling robustly identifies regulatory vocabularies and distal enhancers conserved between evolutionarily distant mammals

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Beer | Authors: Jin Woo Oh and Michael A Beer | Summary: Gene regulatory elements drive many complex biological phenomena such as fetal development, and their mutations are linked to a multitude of common human diseases. The phenotypic impacts of regulatory variants are often tested using their conserved orthologous counterparts in model […]

Placebo treatment affects brain systems related to affective and cognitive processes, but not nociceptive pain

Kavli Affiliate: Martin Lindquist | Authors: Rotem Botvinik-Nezer, Bogdan Petre, Marta Ceko, Martin A. Lindquist, Naomi P. Friedman and Tor D. Wager | Summary: Placebo analgesia is a replicable and well-studied phenomenon, yet it remains unclear to what degree it includes modulation of nociceptive processes. Some studies find effects consistent with nociceptive effects, but meta-analyses […]
