Bottom-up coarse-grained (CG) modeling is an effective means of bypassing the limited spatiotemporal scales of conventional atomistic molecular dynamics while retaining essential information from the atomistic model. A central challenge in CG modeling is the trade-off between accuracy and efficiency, as the inclusion of often pivotal many-body interaction terms in the CG force-field renders simulation markedly slower than simple pairwise models. The Ultra Coarse-Graining (UCG) method incorporates many-body terms through discrete internal state variables that modulate the CG force-field according to, e.

Natural olfactory systems possess remarkable sensitivity and precision beyond what is currently achievable by engineered gas sensors. Unlike their artificial counterparts, noses are capable of distinguishing scents associated with mixtures of volatile molecules in complex, typically fluctuating environments and can adapt to changes. This perspective examines the multifaceted biological principles that provide olfactory systems their discriminatory prowess, and how these ideas can be ported to the design of electronic noses for substantial improvements in performance across metrics such as sensitivity and ability to speciate chemical mixtures.

Background: Conserved non-coding sequences (CNS) are islands of non-coding sequences conserved across species and play an important role in regulating the spatiotemporal expression of genes. Identification of CNS provides valuable information about potentially functional genomic elements, regulatory regions, and helps to gain insights into the genetic basis of crop agronomic traits.
Results: Here, we comprehensively analyze CNS in maize, by comparing the genomes of maize inbred line B73 (Zea mays ssp.

While many genetic tools exist for zebrafish, this animal model still lacks robust gene-silencing and microRNA-delivery technologies enabling spatio-temporal control and traceability. We have recently demonstrated that engineered pri-miR backbones can trigger stable gene knockdown and/or express microRNA(s) of choice in this organism. However, this miRNA-expressing technology presents important limitations.

The enormous computational requirements and unsustainable resource consumption associated with massive parameters of large language models and large vision models have given rise to challenging issues. Here, we propose an interpretable 'small model' framework characterized by only a single core-neuron, i.e.
