In this paper, we discuss a practice of potential cosmic ray detection using off-the-shelves CMOS cameras. We discuss and presents the limitations of up-to-date hardware and software approaches to this task. We also present a hardware solution that we made for long-term testing of algorithms for potential cosmic ray detection. We have also proposed, implemented and tested a novel algorithm that enables real-time processing of image frames acquired by CMOS cameras in order to detect tracks of potential particles. We have compared our results with already published results and obtained acceptable results overcoming some limitation of already existing algorithms. Both source codes and data are available to download.

Plants will form the basis of artificial ecosystems in space exploration and the creation of bases on other planets. Astrophysical factors, such as ionizing radiation (IR), magnetic fields (MF) and gravity, can significantly affect the growth and development of plants beyond Earth. However, to date, the ways in which these factors influence plants remain largely unexplored.

Background: Colorectal cancers (CRCs) from people with biallelic germline likely pathogenic/pathogenic variants in MUTYH or NTHL1 exhibit specific single base substitution (SBS) mutational signatures, namely combined SBS18 and SBS36 (SBS18+SBS36), and SBS30, respectively. The aim was to determine if adenomas from biallelic cases demonstrated these mutational signatures at diagnostic levels.
Methods: Whole-exome sequencing of FFPE tissue and matched blood-derived DNA was performed on 9 adenomas and 15 CRCs from 13 biallelic MUTYH cases, on 7 adenomas and 2 CRCs from 5 biallelic NTHL1 cases and on 27 adenomas and 26 CRCs from 46 non-hereditary (sporadic) participants.

Cosmic Explorer is a next-generation ground-based gravitational-wave observatory that is being designed in the 2020s and is envisioned to begin operations in the 2030s together with the Einstein Telescope in Europe. The Cosmic Explorer concept currently consists of two widely separated L-shaped observatories in the United States, one with 40 km-long arms and the other with 20 km-long arms. This order of magnitude increase in scale with respect to the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observatories will, together with technological improvements, deliver an order of magnitude greater astronomical reach, allowing access to gravitational waves from remnants of the first stars and opening a wide discovery aperture to the novel and unknown.

Background/objectives: The enzyme ubiquitin-specific protease 44 (USP44) is a deubiquitinating enzyme with identified physiological roles as a tumor suppressor and an oncogene. While some binding partners and substrates are known for USP44, the identification of other interactions may improve our understanding of its role in cancer. We therefore performed a proximity biotinylation study that identified products of several known cancer genes that are associated with USP44, including a novel interaction between BRCA2 and USP44.

One of the most surprising and important findings of the first human landings on the Moon was the discovery of a very fine layer of lunar dust covering the entire surface of Moon along with the negative impacts of this dust on the well-being and operational effectiveness of the astronauts, their equipment, and instrumentation. The United States is now planning for human missions to Mars, a planet where dust can also be expected to be ubiquitous for many or most landing sites. For these missions, the design and operations of key hardware systems must take this dust into account, especially when related to crew health and safety.
