Next Steps in Untangling the Web of Violence: A Research Agenda.

Published: November 2021

In this commentary, we outline four key trends in violence and trauma research and describe needed research to advance our ability to understand, prevent, and respond these problems. The trends are the move toward evidence-based policy, the recognition of the importance of trauma dosage, the shift to strengths-based approaches, and increased attention to race, gender, and other personality and community characteristics regarding health disparities and culturally appropriate interventions. For each trend, we have identified needed research areas, taking care to identify low-resource and high-resource studies that can help us reduce the burden of trauma.

Toward a Free-Response Paradigm of Decision-Making in Spiking Neural Networks.

Neural Comput

January 2025

Institute of Science and Technology for Brain-Inspired Intelligence, Fudan University, Shanghai, 200437, China

Spiking neural networks (SNNs) have attracted significant interest in the development of brain-inspired computing systems due to their energy efficiency and similarities to biological information processing. In contrast to continuous-valued artificial neural networks, which produce results in a single step, SNNs require multiple steps during inference to achieve a desired accuracy level, resulting in a burden in real-time response and energy efficiency. Inspired by the tradeoff between speed and accuracy in human and animal decision-making processes, which exhibit correlations among reaction times, task complexity, and decision confidence, an inquiry emerges regarding how an SNN model can benefit by implementing these attributes.

Seleninic acids and their precursors are well-known oxygen-transfer agents that can catalyze several oxidations with HO as the final oxidant. Until very recently, the Se(iv) "peroxyseleninic" acid species has been considered the only plausible catalytic oxidant. Conversely, in 2020, the involvement of Se(vi) "peroxyselenonic" acid has been proposed for the selenium mediated epoxidation of alkenes.

Folding speeds of helical membrane proteins.

Biochem Soc Trans

February 2024

Department of Chemistry, Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology, Ulsan 44919, Republic of Korea.

Membrane proteins play key roles in human health, contributing to cellular signaling, ATP synthesis, immunity, and metabolite transport. Protein folding is the pivotal early step for their proper functioning. Understanding how this class of proteins adopts their native folds could potentially aid in drug design and therapeutic interventions for misfolding diseases.

Article Synopsis
  • The study explores the potential causal relationship between immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD), aiming to clarify how IMIDs may influence AMD risk.
  • Using robust Mendelian randomization methodologies, the research found that conditions like Crohn’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and type 1 diabetes are associated with an increased risk of developing AMD, while multiple sclerosis seems to offer a protective effect.
  • The findings contribute to a better understanding of how these diseases may interact, paving the way for new strategies in preventing and treating AMD in clinical settings.
