Change-point model on nonhomogeneous Poisson processes with application in copy number profiling by next-generation DNA sequencing [PDF]

, 2012
We propose a flexible change-point model for inhomogeneous Poisson Processes, which arise naturally from next-generation DNA sequencing, and derive score and generalized likelihood statistics for shifts in intensity functions.

Vortex fluidics-mediated DNA rescue from formalin-fixed museum specimens. [PDF]

, 2020
DNA from formalin-preserved tissue could unlock a vast repository of genetic information stored in museums worldwide. However, formaldehyde crosslinks proteins and DNA, and prevents ready amplification and DNA sequencing.

Correction to: A new species of Xenoturbella from the western Pacific Ocean and the evolution of Xenoturbella

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2018
After publication of Nakano et al. (2017) [1], the authors became aware of the fact that the new species-group name erected for the two specimens of a Japanese xenoturbellid species in the article is not available because Nakano et al.

A new species of Xenoturbella from the western Pacific Ocean and the evolution of Xenoturbella

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2017
Background Xenoturbella is a group of marine benthic animals lacking an anus and a centralized nervous system. Molecular phylogenetic analyses group the animal together with the Acoelomorpha, forming the Xenacoelomorpha.

Gut microbiota in Parkinson's disease: Temporal stability and relations to disease progressionResearch in context

EBioMedicine, 2019
Background: Several publications have described differences in cross-sectional comparisons of gut microbiota between patients with Parkinson's disease and control subjects, with considerable variability of the reported differentially abundant taxa.
