Neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease is characterized by accumulation of pathological protein deposits including Aβ plaques, tau tangles and diffuse neuropil threads accompanied by wide-spread tissue loss. While dense protein deposits are readily observed by conventional meth...

Sustainable Metal–Organic Framework Water Harvesters in the Artificial Intelligence Era
Abstract Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising candidates for water harvesting due to their tunable pore environments, which can be precisely engineered to capture and release water in arid conditions. Integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into MOF discovery can accele...

Polarized epithelia integrate barrier sealing, vectorial ion-water transport, and cytoskeletal mechanics, yet scalable assays that report this coupled functional state in real time remain limited. Here, we introduce photonic-crystal hydraulic manometry (PCHM), which quantifies ou...

Electromagnetic Signatures from Primordial Black Holes in the Solar System
Primordial black holes (PBHs) in the asteroid-mass range, with typical masses 1017g≲M≲1023g, have drawn significant recent attention as viable dark matter candidates. The peak frequencies of photons emitted via Hawking radiation from asteroid-mass PBHs range from infrared to γ-ra...

Abstract We present a comprehensive multi-wavelength study of GRB 260310A / SN 2026fgk, a nearby (z = 0.153), long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB) with an exceptionally underluminous prompt γ-ray emission and a Comptonized spectrum. The burst occurred at the edge of a blue host ga...

For decades, behavioral and brain research has advanced by isolating single variables or brain regions to study behavior and performance. However, it has become increasingly clear that reductionist methods struggle to capture the complex, dynamic, and context-dependent nature of...

Gut microbiota dysbiosis remodels the multi-tissue transcriptional landscape of the host
<title>Abstract</title> Background The gut microbiota exerts a profound influence on host physiology, but its systemic impact on gene expression across diverse tissues remains poorly characterized. Results This study investigated the transcriptional effects of gut microbiota depl...

Purpose: People with aphasia are at risk of becoming depressed, anxious, and isolated. They want therapy to focus on improving communication, confidence, and finding ways to live well; family members want to be involved in the therapy process. We aimed to codesign and test a nove...

ABSTRACT Stochastic Galerkin methods offer unexplored potential for the numerical simulation of parabolic problems with random variables, in particular if they are combined with variational discretizations of the space and time variables. Due to the high dimensionality, the solut...

Abstract The oxidation kinetics of hematite α-Fe2O3(0001) surfaces are vital for its applications in catalysis, environmental remediation, and industrial processes. Despite prior studies, the roles of temperature, oxygen partial pressure, and oxygen chemical potential in controll...

Adolescents at the crossroads: genetic associations between psychotic symptoms and antisocial traits
<title>Abstract</title> Antisocial behaviour in youth has serious consequences at individual and societal level. Adolescence is also a critical period for the emergence of prodromal psychosis symptoms. Their co-occurrence may aggravate aggression and lead to severe adverse outcom...

Anatomy and impact of a high Arctic atmospheric river driving extreme winter rain and snowfall
Abstract. Atmospheric rivers (ARs) transport concentrated fluxes of heat and moisture poleward, driving temperature and precipitation extremes. Yet, their vertical structure in the High Arctic – where small thermodynamic perturbations govern rain-snow partitioning and cryospheric...

Hoverfly responses to looming stimuli depend on elevation and speed
Abstract An object on immediate collision course generates a rapidly expanding visual stimulus on the retina, which will typically trigger a fast reaction, such as an evasive behavior. In hoverflies, for example, visual looming stimuli may be generated if the insect is about to c...

Multilayer networks in finance: a systematic review
<title>Abstract</title> Stress in the global financial system propagates through multiple channels, including interbank credit and funding, overlapping portfolios, and bank–firm exposures. Multilayer networks represent these channels as interdependent layers, enabling analysis of...
