Words won’t reduce the impact of conflict on nature — what’s needed is action Christopher P. Dunn , Brendan Mackey & Kathryn Gwiazdon News & Views | 13 November 2024 Australian megafires drove complex biodiversity outcomes An ambitious analysis of data has revealed the effects of the...
a natural chemical compound found in grapefruit, tastes bitter. Some people like that bitterness in small doses and believe it enhances the general flavor, but others would rather avoid it altogether. So juice packagers often
With the development of natural language processing, there are some advanced techniques such as BERT [24] that are capable of sufficiently exploring and learning high-latent contextual information in natural language texts. Inspired by this, we here consider genomic sequences as “biological texts” ...
We observed that a longer usage of the book revealed potential design-related disadvantages (e.g., AI-functionalities were sometimes confusing or contained too much information, or made one unsure of their learning). At the same time, the more difficulty students perceived learning with the AI-...
Cancer cells often co-opt post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms to achieve pathologic expression of gene networks that drive metastasis. Translational control is a major regulatory hub in oncogenesis; however, its effects on cancer progression remain poorly understood. Here, to address this, we use...
(2012: 27) argue that new evidence bolsters Westermarck’s theory that (in their words) “personal sexual aversions that target childhood associates manifest themselves on the cultural stage as proscriptions against incest.” Others stop short of endorsing this hypothesis, but treat it as a ...
Though active-learning instruction has the potential to positively impact the preparation and diversity of STEM graduates, not all instructors are able to achieve this potential. One important factor is the teacher knowledge that instructors possess, inc
Many difficult problems in evolutionary genomics are related to mutations that have weak effects on fitness, as the consequences of mutations with large effects are often simple to predict. Current systems biology has accumulated much data on mutations w
. A one million Kg redwood tree could possibly have 70 trillion cells assuming a cell size 100 times larger than an Arabidopsis cell. Combine that with developmental changes, cell differentiation and interactions with the environment and it is easy to see that there are an infinite number of ...
The heart becomes morphologically identifiable when ~26 days have passed since fertilization13. The reconstructed specimen is shown in Supplemental Fig.1. This embryo has developed a neural plate that is flanked by 5 somites and somitomeres. The endoderm, shown in gray, is forming the pharynx. ...
