Background: Employment and relationship are crucial for social integration. However, individuals with major psychiatric disorders often face challenges in these domains.

Aims: We investigated employment and relationship status changes among patients across the affective and psychotic spectrum - in comparison with healthy controls, examining whether diagnostic groups or functional levels influence these transitions.

Physical activity (PA) is an important preventive factor of non-communicable diseases (NCDs), particularly cardiovascular disease, yet progress towards reducing physical inactivity in populations is slow. Population-levels of PA are most often estimated using self-report questionnaires in population surveys, such as the Global PA Questionnaire (GPAQ), which may not accurately reflect objectively measured PA, such as accelerometers. The aim of the current study was to compare self-report vs objectively measured PA across 5 African-origin populations.

Vaccines and diagnostic tools stand out as among the most influential advancements in public health, credited with averting an estimated 6 million deaths annually and substantially alleviating the burden of infectious disease. Despite this progress, the global imperative to prevent, detect, and combat infectious disease persists. Regrettably, hundreds of thousands of lives are still lost due to inadequate access to vaccines and diagnostics.

Stroke is a major cause of disability for adults over 40 years of age. While research into animal models has prioritized treatments aimed at diminishing post-stroke damage, no studies have investigated the response to a severe stroke injury in a highly regenerative adult mammal. Here we investigate the effects of transient ischemia on adult spiny mice, Acomys cahirinus, due to their ability to regenerate multiple tissues without scarring.

Genetically encoded libraries (GEL) are increasingly being used for the discovery of ligands for "undruggable" targets that cannot be addressed with small molecules. Foundational GEL platforms like phage-, yeast-, ribosome-, and mRNA-display have enabled the display of libraries composed of 20 natural amino acids (20AA). Unnatural amino acids (UAA) and chemical post-translational modification (cPTM) expanded GEL beyond the 20AA space to yield unnatural linear, cyclic, and bicyclic peptides.
