AI Article Synopsis
- Merger announcements create stress among employees, particularly affecting those from the lower-status partner, which can lead to low commitment to change.
- Previous studies looked at how different merger patterns affect employee support but didn't focus on how employees process merger-related information.
- This research finds that an integration-equality merger pattern boosts commitment to change through employees seeing themselves as prototypical of the new organization, especially when they process information systematically.
Article Abstract
Merger announcements cause stress among employees, often leading to low change commitment, especially among employees from the lower-status merger partner. Such stress influences how deeply employees process merger-relevant information. Previous research examined how merger patterns that preserve versus change status differences impact merger support, but did not address how employees' information processing may influence this relationship. The current research addresses this gap through a scenario experiment, focusing on the low-status merger partner. The interplay between merger patterns and information processing was examined regarding employees' prototypicality claims in relation to merger support. Results suggest that an integration-equality merger pattern increases change commitment via prototypicality claims in the new organization, conditional to employees' systematic information processing.

Background: Breast cancer is the most diagnosed cancer in women worldwide and carries a considerable psychosocial burden. Interventions based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and compassion-based approaches show promise in improving adjustment and quality of life in people with cancer. The Mind programme is an integrative ACT and compassion-based intervention tailored for women with breast cancer, which aims to prepare women for survivorship by promoting psychological flexibility and self-compassion.

Identifying gene expression differences in heterogeneous tissues across conditions is a fundamental biological task, enabled by multi-condition single-cell RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). Current data analysis approaches divide the constituent cells into clusters meant to represent cell types, but such discrete categorization tends to be an unsatisfactory model of the underlying biology. Here, we introduce latent embedding multivariate regression (LEMUR), a model that operates without, or before, commitment to discrete categorization.

Background: To identify discrete and continuous cell type signatures in brain tissue from donors with minimal cognitive decline despite harboring substantial proteinopathies associated with Alzheimer's Disease and Alzheimer's Disease-related dementias.
Method: Three large-scale single-nucleus RNA-seq studies on Alzheimer's Disease post-mortem human tissue were re-annotated and integrated to identify cell type composition associations with cognitive resilience to various neuropathologies. Cell type signatures were defined in two ways: using an integrated clustering approach and using a continuous factor-based analysis.
Developing a New Paradigm for Healthcare Delivery: Lessons Learned from Same-Day Access.

Goal: Excessively lengthy wait times for appointments with clinicians are a major source of frustration for patients, and difficulties with access represent a public health problem facing populations across all societies. As delays in care have been associated with inferior outcomes, same-day appointments have been proposed as a patient-centric means of improving healthcare delivery. However, this paradigm represents a radical shift from conventional scheduling tactics, and skepticism has long existed regarding its feasibility and real-world applicability to clinical practice.

Article Synopsis
- This chapter focuses on using lineage barcodes, which are measurements of cell evolution through mutations, to study single cells' development and fate changes.
- It presents Quantitative Fate Mapping (QFM) and its computational tools, such as the Phylotime model for cell phylogeny and the ICE-FASE algorithm for analyzing progenitor cells.
- The importance of proper sampling for interpreting results is highlighted, offering a comprehensive framework for understanding how cell fates evolve over time.
