The developed method of steganographic hiding of text information in an audio signal based on the wavelet transform acquires a deep meaning in the conditions of the use by an attacker of deliberate unauthorized manipulations with a steganocoded audio signal to distort the text information embedded in it. Thus, increasing the robustness of the stego-system by compressing the steganocoded audio signal subject to the preservation of the integrity of text information, taking into account the features of the psychophysiological model of sound perception, is the main objective of this scientific research. The task of this scientific research is effectively solved using a multilevel discrete wavelet transform using adaptive block normalization of text information with subsequent recursive embedding in the low-frequency component of the audio signal and further scalar product of the obtained coefficients with the Daubechies wavelet filters. The results of the obtained experimental studies confirm the hypothesis, namely that it is proposed to use recursive embedding in the low-frequency component (approximating wavelet coefficients) followed by their scalar product with wavelet filters at each level of the wavelet decomposition, which will increase the average power of hidden data. It should be noted that upon analyzing the existing method, which is based on embedding text information in the high-frequency component (detailed wavelet coefficients), at the last level of the wavelet decomposition, we obtained the limit CR = 6, and in the developed, CR = 20, with full integrity of the text information in both cases. Therefore, the resistance of the stego-system is increased by 3.3 times to deliberate or passive compression of the audio signal in order to distort the embedded text information.

The power of music: impact on EEG signals.

Article Synopsis
- Music can influence our attention and cognitive functions without us realizing it, and it triggers neurotransmitter release in the brain that improves our mood and thinking.
- This study examined how two types of music—Egyptian folk and classical—affected brain activity in 76 participants, revealing that different music genres activate distinct cortical areas in the brain, particularly influencing the frontal and occipital regions.
- Findings showed that folk music led to a significant decrease in brain activity, indicating a relaxed state that could temporarily reduce cognitive abilities, while classical music was linked to an overall more relaxed brain state.

The CUT&RUN technique facilitates detection of protein-DNA interactions across the genome. Typical applications of CUT&RUN include profiling changes in histone tail modifications or mapping transcription factor chromatin occupancy. Widespread adoption of CUT&RUN is driven, in part, by technical advantages over conventional ChIP-seq that include lower cell input requirements, lower sequencing depth requirements, and increased sensitivity with reduced background signal due to a lack of cross-linking agents that otherwise mask antibody epitopes.

Article Synopsis
- Single cell calcium (Ca) imaging, utilizing microscopy and the Fura-2/AM indicator, is crucial for studying Ca channels activated by various stimuli.
- When Fura-2/AM enters cells, it is converted to Fura-2, which binds calcium and shows a measurable change in fluorescence based on calcium concentration.
- This method allows for real-time monitoring of Ca changes across multiple cells, facilitating efficient data analysis and improving understanding of calcium signaling in cells.

Article Synopsis
- Combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) has significantly enhanced the quality of life for people living with HIV (PLWH), but many older adults face HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND).
- A new biological model using chimeric HIV (EcoHIV) has been developed in rats to study the neurological effects of HIV, but understanding its distribution in the brain remains a challenge.
- In this study, EcoHIV was modified and injected into mice to investigate whether microglia are the primary cells containing HIV; results show that microglia are indeed the main reservoirs for HIV in the brain, highlighting the model's potential for exploring neurocognitive disorders.

Hemocytes are the circulating immune-competent cells in bivalve mollusks and play a key role in several important functions of cell-mediated innate immunity. During the early stages of the immune response, hemocytes actively migrate to the site of infection. This inherent motility is a fundamental characteristic of these cells.
