Robust Detection of Brain Stimulation Artifacts in iEEG Using Autoencoder-Generated Signals and ResNet Classification

Kavli Affiliate: Edward Chang | Authors: Jeremy Saal, Ankit N. Khambhati, Edward F. Chang and Prasad Shirvalkar | Summary: Background Intracranial EEG (iEEG) is crucial for understanding brain function, but stimulation-induced noise complicates data interpretation. Traditional artifact detection methods require manual user input or struggle with noise variability, especially with limited labeled data. Objective We […]

Latent-TGF-β has a domain swapped architecture

Kavli Affiliate: Yifan Cheng | Authors: Mingliang Jin, Robert Seed, Tiffany Shing, Yifan Cheng and Stephen Nishimura | Summary: The multifunctional cytokine TGF-β is produced in a latent form (L-TGF-β) where a RGD containing homodimeric prodomain forms a “ring” encircling mature TGF-β shielding it from its receptors. Thus L-TGF-β must be activated to function, a […]

Dysregulation of the fluid homeostasis system by aging

Kavli Affiliate: Zachary Knight | Authors: Heeun Jang, Alexis Behne Sharma, Usan Dan, Jasmine H. Wong, Zachary A. Knight and Jennifer L. Garrison | Summary: Chronic dehydration is a leading cause of morbidity for the elderly, but how aging alters the fluid homeostasis system is not well understood. Here, we used a combination of physiologic, […]

The HIV-1 Nuclear Export Complex Reveals the Role of RNA in Crm1 Cargo Recognition

Kavli Affiliate: Keri Martinowich | Authors: Amber M Smith, Yang Li, Arianna Velarde, Yifan Cheng and Alan D. Frankel | Summary: Summary: Crm1 is a highly conserved nuclear exportin that transports >1000 human proteins including ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes. The interface between Crm1 and RNP cargos is unknown. The HIV regulatory protein, Rev, was one of […]

Machine-learning convergent melanocytic morphology despite noisy archival slides

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Keiser | Authors: Mikio Tada, Garrett Gaskins, Sina Ghandian, Nicholas Mew, Michael J. Keiser and Elizabeth S. Keiser | Summary: Melanocytic atypia, ranging from benign to malignant, often leads to diagnostic discordance, complicating its prediction by machine learning models. To overcome this, we paired H&E-stained histology images with contiguous or serial sections […]
