Case Report: Functional characterization of a missense variant in associated with hypoketotic hypoglycemia.

Hypoketotic hypoglycemia due to dysregulated insulin secretion is the most common cause of persistent hypoglycemia in children. However, this type of hypoglycemia can also result from defects in the insulin signaling pathway. Distinguishing between the two is important for informing treatment decisions.

An Evolutionary Perspective on Dog Behavioral Genetics.

Dogs have played an outsized role in the field of behavioral genetics since its earliest days. Their unique evolutionary history and ubiquity in the modern world make them a potentially powerful model system for discovering how genetic changes lead to changes in behavior. Genomic technology has supercharged this potential by enabling scientists to sequence the DNA of thousands of dogs and test for correlations with behavioral traits.

Temporary ambiguity and memory for the context of spoken language in adults with moderate-severe traumatic brain injury.

Language is processed incrementally, with addressees considering multiple candidate interpretations as speech unfolds, supporting the retention of these candidate interpretations in memory. For example, after interpreting the utterance, "Click on the striped bag", listeners exhibit better memory for non-mentioned items in the context that were temporarily consistent with what was said (e.g.
