PLUMED Tutorials: A collaborative, community-driven learning ecosystem.

In computational physics, chemistry, and biology, the implementation of new techniques in shared and open-source software lowers barriers to entry and promotes rapid scientific progress. However, effectively training new software users presents several challenges. Common methods like direct knowledge transfer and in-person workshops are limited in reach and comprehensiveness.

The importance of peripheral populations in the face of novel environmental change.

Anthropogenically driven environmental change has imposed substantial threats on biodiversity, including the emergence of infectious diseases that have resulted in declines of wildlife globally. In response to pathogen invasion, maintaining diversity within host populations across heterogenous environments is essential to facilitating species persistence. White-nose syndrome is an emerging fungal pathogen that has caused mass mortalities of hibernating bats across North America.

Cardiovascular, Metabolic, and Safety Outcomes with Semaglutide by Baseline Age: Post Hoc Analysis of SUSTAIN 6 and PIONEER 6.

Introduction: The high risk of cardiovascular events in people with type 2 diabetes increases with age. The cardiovascular effects of once-weekly subcutaneous and once-daily oral semaglutide versus placebo in people with type 2 diabetes at high cardiovascular risk were investigated in the SUSTAIN 6 and PIONEER 6 cardiovascular outcomes trials, respectively. It is unknown whether the effects of semaglutide are age dependent.

The importance of consistency in complainants' evidence in the decision to prosecute child sexual abuse cases.

Background: Attrition of child sexual abuse (CSA) cases occurs at different stages of investigation, and only a small proportion of the cases reported to police are referred for prosecution. Different factors have been linked with the prosecution of CSA cases; however, little is known about how prosecutors determine which cases should proceed and which should not.

Objectives: This paper investigated criteria and thresholds used by prosecuting lawyers in deciding whether a child sexual abuse case should proceed.
