A Statistical Mechanics Model to Decode Tissue Crosstalk During Graft Formation
Advanced Science, EarlyView.We introduce a statistical mechanics framework to decode the genomic crosstalk governing plant grafting. By integrating evolutionary game theory with transcriptomics, we reconstruct idopNetworks (informative, dynamic, omnidirectional, and personalized networks) that map scion–rootstock interactions.

Body donor programs in Australia and New Zealand: Current status and future opportunities
Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 301-328, March 2025.Abstract Body donation is critical to anatomy study in Australia and New Zealand. Annually, more than 10,000 students, anatomists, researchers, and clinicians access tissue donated by local consented donors through university‐based body donation programs. However, little research has been published about their operations.

“Because everybody's different”: Co‐designing body donor program consent processes
Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Abstract While it is broadly accepted that body donation for anatomical education should rely on informed consent, consent processes vary substantially. Best practice guidelines for body donation are typically published by anatomical societies and may not reflect details valued by prospective donors or the educators and students who utilize donor ...
