Digital Sequence Information (DSI) data governance practices to support benefit-sharing and science

Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) are developing a multilateral mechanism including a global fund for benefit-sharing from the use of digital sequence information (DSI) on genetic resources. Key issues for the multilateral mechanism still need to be agreed upon, like DSI access and use, triggers for the mechanism, tensions ...

MLH1 p.His112Arg Variant Is Associated With Increased Cancer Susceptibility

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lynch syndrome, a prevalent hereditary cancer predisposition, is frequently caused by pathogenic variants in the MutL homolog 1 (MLH1) mismatch repair gene. However, a significant proportion of MLH1 missense variants remain classified as variants of uncertain significance (VUS), creating clinical ambiguity.

Enhance food plant diversity conservation and use through greater coordination between genebanks and botanic gardens

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Food plants are vital to human and planetary health, but their diversity is threatened, making food security, nutrition, and environmental goals more difficult to achieve. Food plant diversity conservation, research, and education can be enhanced through collaboration between sectors, including genebanks and botanic gardens, which possess complementary

A Retinomorphic Graphene Transistor Implementing Direction‐ and Velocity‐Selective Computation for In‐Sensor Image Stabilization

Small, EarlyView.
A multi‐gated ion‐gel graphene transistor architecture emulates spatiotemporal dendritic filtering inspired by biological direction‐selective retinal circuits. Leveraging distributed resistance‐capacitive ionic relaxation delays under combined excitation‐inhibition pulse routines, the solid‐state device exhibits programmable direction‐selective index ...

Differentiable Variable Fonts

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Typography is an essential component of visual communication. Editing and animating text appearance for graphic designs, title sequences, commercials, and logos remain highly skilled tasks requiring detailed, hands‐on efforts from pro artists. Automating these challenging manual workflows requires balancing the competing goals of maintaining a

Navigating the Global Landscape of Access and Benefit-Sharing (ABS) on Digital Sequence Information (DSI) Regulation: Dealing with Scope Confusion through Mutual Supportiveness

SSRN Electronic Journal
Since 1992, the United Nations (UN) Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) has regulated access to material genetic resources and the sharing of benefits associated with their use in research and development (R&D) through a policy mechanism known as Access and Benefit-Sharing (ABS).

Episodic memory rehabilitation for HIV‐associated neurocognitive disorders: A scoping review

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite extensive research on HIV‐associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND), interest in cognitive rehabilitation has emerged only within the past 15 years. HAND are characterised by mild‐to‐moderate impairments in multiple cognitive domains: attention, episodic memory and executive functions.
