The ability to anticipate tides is critical for a wide range of marine organisms, but this task is complicated by the diversity of tidal patterns on Earth. Previous findings suggest that organisms whose geographic range spans multiple types of tidal cycles can produce distinct patterns of rhythmic behavior that correspond to the tidal cycles they experience. How this behavioral plasticity is achieved, however, is unclear.

Interpretability for machine learning models in medical imaging (MLMI) is an important direction of research. However, there is a general sense of murkiness in what interpretability means. Why does the need for interpretability in MLMI arise? What goals does one actually seek to address when interpretability is needed? To answer these questions, we identify a need to formalize the goals and elements of interpretability in MLMI.

Article Synopsis
  • - Peripheral nerve sheath tumors are mostly non-cancerous tumors that originate from nerve cells outside the brain and spinal cord, mainly categorized as schwannomas and neurofibromas.
  • - These tumors can occur on their own but are often linked to genetic conditions like neurofibromatosis types 1 and 2 or schwannomatosis, and they can sometimes develop in areas that have been treated with radiation.
  • - The case presented involves a 49-year-old man with a history of testicular cancer who previously received radiation, now showing two benign schwannomas located in his pelvic wall and psoas muscle.

Article Synopsis
  • Aging leads to the buildup of proteins that behave like amyloid, but how these proteins form isn't fully understood.
  • Researchers found that errors in messenger RNA cause amyloid-like proteins to be produced in various human cell types, including stem cells and neurons.
  • These errors increase with DNA damage, which is commonly associated with aging, suggesting a connection between normal aging processes and age-related diseases.
