Identification of differential topologically associating domains from low sequencing depth and pseudo-bulk chromatin contact maps

Topologically associating domains (TADs) are fundamental units of 3D genome architecture that shape gene regulation. Comparative analyses of TADs across biological conditions have revealed their involvement in development and disease. However, accurately identifying differential...

Deposition and Aero-Thermal Synergetic Design of Internal Swirl Cooling for a Turbine Blade Leading Edge: GAN-Based Optimization

Abstract The leading edge of turbine blades is subjected to extreme thermal loads, exaggerated by continuously increasing turbine inlet temperatures. This challenge has motivated the development of increasingly sophisticated internal cooling architectures. However, such intricate...

Declining hydraulic safety in a drier world

Forests worldwide are increasingly exposed to soil drought under climate change, with their fates depending on the ability to maintain essential functions like water transport (hydraulics) and photosynthesis. Acclimation is expected to mitigate drought impacts, but the extent to...

Integrated proteomics and metabolomics reveal how functional protein supplementation enhances salt tolerance in Zygosaccharomyces rouxii

Zygosaccharomyces rouxii is a halotolerant yeast widely associated with traditional high-salt food fermentations, while also being recognized as a spoilage microorganism in some food systems. Although its performance in fermented foods is strongly influenced by high salinity, the...

Comprehensive study of carrier dynamics in gradient hydrogenated NdNiO3 using broadband ultrafast transient reflectivity spectroscopy

Hydrogenation of perovskite rare-earth nickelates induces giant lattice distortions and enhanced tilting/rotation of NiO6 octahedra, enabling a room-temperature metal–insulator transition. However, unraveling the couplings between ion, electron, and lattice degrees of freedom int...

Anomalous deformation behavior and underlying mechanisms of Mg-Nd-Zr-Ca alloy during low-temperature hot compression

The anomalous deformation behavior of a Mg-1.8Nd-0.4Zr-0.3Ca (wt%) alloy during hot compression at low temperatures (180–330 °C) and strain rates of 0.001–10 s⁻¹ was systematically investigated. The flow stress exhibits an abnormal increase with decreasing strain rate at 180 °C,...

Crisis Learning in Local Governments: Organizational Adaptation and Policy Change During the COVID-19 Crisis

Crises can trigger multi-dimensional transformations in public administration systems. This study focuses on the integrated mechanism of learning during crisis to enhance our understanding of emergency management optimization in complex crisis environments. This study constructs...

Vaporization-Guided Morphology Evolution Enables Precision Control in Blade-Coated Organic Solar Cells

Abstract Controlling the morphology evolution of blade-coated bulk-heterojunction active layers is crucial for achieving high-efficiency organic solar cells (OSCs), yet remains challenging because rapid solvent evaporation and unbalanced donor–acceptor aggregation often lead to p...

Global Reach of the EU 's CSRD : How Sustainability Disclosure Mandates Affect Non‐ EU Firms

ABSTRACT The European Union's Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) represents a landmark regulatory effort to enhance global sustainability reporting and corporate accountability. This study examines how CSRD affects non‐EU firms with substantial economic exposure...

Enhanced 3D Gravity Inversion Using ResU-Net with Density Logging Constraints: A Dual-Phase Training Approach

Abstract Gravity exploration has become an important geophysical method due to its low cost and high efficiency. With the rise of artificial intelligence, data-driven gravity inversion methods based on deep learning (DL) possess physical property recovery capabilities that conven...

Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals chondrocyte heterogeneity and fibrocartilage transition in osteonecrosis of the femoral head

Cartilage degeneration in osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is closely associated with chondrocyte heterogeneity. Single-cell RNA sequencing was performed on 50,851 chondrocytes from 10 ONFH patients and 10 controls. The findings were further validated using an in vitro ch...

The ER–Golgi intermediate compartment: a central hub integrating membrane trafficking and stress responses

Abstract The endoplasmic reticulum–Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC) is a dynamic membrane system at the ER–Golgi interface, traditionally viewed as a transient station for COPII- and COPI-dependent trafficking. Emerging evidence redefines the ERGIC as a stress-responsive re...

Impacts of anthropogenic aerosols on a snowfall event – a case study in the Guanzhong Basin and its surrounding areas, China

Abstract. Impacts of anthropogenic aerosols on clouds and snowfall during winter precipitation events remain highly uncertain, particularly under heavy pollution. A winter snowfall event over the Guanzhong Basin (GZB) and its surrounding regions (GZBs), China, has been simulated...

CoxFormer enables spatial omics inference with multimodal generative modeling

Gene co-expression maps transcriptome-wide gene-gene relationships, yet high-quality estimates cover less than half the genome. Meanwhile, spatial omics either profiles restricted in situ panels or lacks cellular resolution. Extending co-expression transcriptome-wide could overco...

Assortment Optimization for the Multinomial Logit Model with Repeated Customer Interactions

This paper presents the multinomial logit model with repeated customer interactions. In each period, the same customer selects a product from the recommended assortment or opts out. From the seller’s perspective, the choice probability in the current period is updated based on th...

A ReSCAL-based numerical study on synergistic optimization of photovoltaic arrays for sand control and power generation

In arid desert environments, photovoltaic (PV) arrays not only serve as clean energy suppliers, but also act as physical barriers to mitigate wind-blown sand movement. Based on the Real-Space Cellular Automaton Laboratory (ReSCAL), this study explores the coupled effects of PV ar...
