Background: A preference for sooner-smaller over later-larger rewards, known as delay discounting, is a candidate transdiagnostic marker of waiting impulsivity and a research domain criterion. While abnormal discounting rates have been associated with many psychiatric diagnoses and abnormal brain structure, the underlying neuropsychological processes remain largely unknown. Here, we deconstruct delay discounting into choice and rate processes by testing different computational models and investigate their associations with white matter tracts.

Background: The use of medical abortion using either a combination of mifepristone and misoprostol, or misoprostol alone has contributed to increased safety and decreased mortality and morbidity. The availability of quality medical abortion medicines is an essential component in the provision of quality abortion care. Understanding the factors that influence the availability of medical abortion medicines is important to help in-country policymakers, program planners, and providers improve availability and use of medical abortion.

Transcriptional regulation allows cells to execute developmental programs, maintain homeostasis, and respond to intra- and extracellular signals. Central to these processes are promoters, which in eukaryotes are sequences upstream of genes that bind transcription factors (TFs) and which recruit RNA polymerase to initiate mRNA synthesis. Valuable tools for studying promoters include reporter genes, which can be used to indicate when and where genes are activated.
