Published: September 2022

Glaucoma is a leading cause of progressive blindness and visual impairment worldwide. Microstructural evidence of glaucomatous damage to the optic nerve head and associated tissues can be visualized using optical coherence tomography (OCT). In recent years, development of novel deep learning (DL) algorithms has led to innovative advances and improvements in automated detection of glaucomatous damage and progression on OCT imaging. DL algorithms have also been trained utilizing OCT data to improve detection of glaucomatous damage on fundus photography, thus improving the potential utility of color photos which can be more easily collected in a wider range of clinical and screening settings. This review highlights ten years of contributions to glaucoma detection through advances in deep learning models trained utilizing OCT structural data and posits future directions for translation of these discoveries into the field of aging and the basic sciences.

Protein language models (PLMs) have demonstrated impressive success in modeling proteins. However, general-purpose "foundational" PLMs have limited performance in modeling antibodies due to the latter's hypervariable regions, which do not conform to the evolutionary conservation principles that such models rely on. In this study, we propose a transfer learning framework called Antibody Mutagenesis-Augmented Processing (AbMAP), which fine-tunes foundational models for antibody-sequence inputs by supervising on antibody structure and binding specificity examples.

Dissolution of CO in water followed by the subsequent hydrolysis reactions is of great importance to the global carbon cycle, and carbon capture and storage. Despite numerous previous studies, the reactions are still not fully understood at the atomistic scale. Here, we combined ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations with Markov state models to elucidate the reaction mechanisms and kinetics of CO in supercritical water both in the bulk and nanoconfined states.

Background: Large language models (LLMs) have been proposed as valuable tools in medical education and practice. The Chinese National Nursing Licensing Examination (CNNLE) presents unique challenges for LLMs due to its requirement for both deep domain-specific nursing knowledge and the ability to make complex clinical decisions, which differentiates it from more general medical examinations. However, their potential application in the CNNLE remains unexplored.

Complex deep learning models trained on very large datasets have become key enabling tools for current research in natural language processing and computer vision. By providing pre-trained models that can be fine-tuned for specific applications, they enable researchers to create accurate models with minimal effort and computational resources. Large scale genomics deep learning models come in two flavors: the first are large language models of DNA sequences trained in a self-supervised fashion, similar to the corresponding natural language models; the second are supervised learning models that leverage large scale genomics datasets from ENCODE and other sources.
