Opening the Pandora Box: Neural processing of self-relevant negative social information.

Curiosity is a powerful motivator of information-seeking behavior. People seek not only positive, but also aversive social information about others. However, whether people also seek unfavorable social information about themselves, as well as the neural mechanisms that may drive such seemingly counterintuitive behavior remain unclear.

Safety outcomes of ketamine for treatment-resistant depression in clinical settings and development of the ketamine side effect tool-revised (KSET-R).

Background: Ketamine and its derivates (e.g. esketamine) are increasingly used in clinical settings for treatment-resistant depression (TRD).

MolecularWebXR: Multiuser discussions in chemistry and biology through immersive and inclusive augmented and virtual reality.

MolecularWebXR is a new web-based platform for education, science communication and scientific peer discussion in chemistry and biology, based on modern web-based Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR). With no installs as it is all web-served, MolecularWebXR enables multiple users to simultaneously explore, communicate and discuss concepts about chemistry and biology in immersive 3D environments, by manipulating and passing around objects with their bare hands and pointing at different elements with natural hand gestures. Users may either be present in the same physical space or distributed around the world, in the latter case talking naturally with each other thanks to built-in audio.

Genetic Disruption of Blimp-1 Drastically Augments the Antitumor Efficacy of BCMA-Targeting CAR-T Cells.

Chimeric antigen receptor-T (CAR-T) cells directed against B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) are an effective treatment for multiple myeloma (MM), but short persistence and frequent relapses are challenges for this immunotherapy. This lack of durability has been attributed to the premature terminal differentiation of CAR-T cells which prevents the formation of long-lived memory cells that maintain anti-tumour responses. To improve long-term efficacy, we used CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing to ablate the expression of the transcription factor Blimp-1.

A Kagome Lattice of Lanthanide Atoms in a 2D Er-Directed Metal-Organic Coordination Network.

Kagome lattices have attracted much attention due the very interesting properties they can exhibit, both from the electronic and the magnetic points of view, although much of the experimental studies have been reported on 3D metals or 2D nanosheets. In the past few years, on-surface synthesis has allowed the fabrication of strictly monolayer 2D metal-organic networks, many of them containing transition metals. In this paper we report the fabrication and the study of the electronic and magnetic properties of a monolayer 2D metal-organic network where the nodes are lanthanide atoms forming a kagome lattice.
