Statistical and machine learning methods for identifying clusters of variables: with applications in omics, ecology and psychology.

, 2021
In many fields, researchers are confronted by datasets whose variables demonstrate grouping patterns. For example, in transcriptomics data, where the variables are gene expression levels, certain groups of genes are involved in the same biological processes, so their expression levels are highly correlated. For complex diseases, such as cancer or heart

Coacervates Made of Elastin‐Like Polypeptides Fused with Melanocyte‐Stimulating Hormone and Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein Enhance Skin Wound Healing in Spinal Cord‐Injured Mice

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Pressure skin wounds are frequent complications after spinal cord injury (SCI), with impaired healing due to vascular and immune deficits. Elastin‐like polypeptides (ELP) fused to α‐MSH (MSH‐ELP) or MCP‐1 (MCP‐ELP) are developed and tested on these wounds. The resulting nanoparticles are non‐toxic and bioactive, and they enhance macrophage recruitment,
