Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Nature-inspired optimization algorithms in knapsack problem: A review [PDF]
Meta-heuristic algorithms have become an arising field of research in recent years. Some of these algorithms have proved to be efficient in solving combinatorial optimization problems, particularly knapsack problem.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

The Complexity and Distribution of Hard Problems
Summary: Measure-theoretic aspects of the \(\leq^{\text{P}}_m\)-reducibility structure of the exponential time complexity classes \(\text{E} = \text{DTIME}(2^{\text{linear}})\) and \(\text{E}_2 = \text{DTIME}(2^{\text{polynomial}})\) are investigated.

Although too much iron in the brain promotes neurodegeneration, iron ion chelators have had mixed effects in clinical trials. This review explains why; some chelators do not render the iron redox‐inactive (e.g., L1) whereas others do (e.g., desferrioxamine).

Mind/body “hard problem” is not a category error
Reber’s Cellular Basis of Consciousness (CBC) has much to recommend it. However, while the CBC effectively renders null any ontological gap between mind and body, it leaves two important remaining gaps unaddressed: the epistemologic and the causal gap ...

Safe Approximation—An Efficient Solution for a Hard Routing Problem
The Disjoint Connecting Paths problem and its capacitated generalization, called Unsplittable Flow problem, play an important role in practical applications such as communication network design and routing. These tasks are NP-hard in general, but various

Reoptimization of NP-Hard Problems [PDF]
A reoptimization problem, given two similar instances of an optimization problem and a good solution to the first instance, asks for a solution to the second. In this paper we propose general approximation algorithms applicable to a wide class of reoptimization problems.

Spatial biology in cancer epigenetics
Spatial epigenomics combines molecular profiling with tissue architecture to reveal how gene regulation is organized within intact tissues. In cancer, these technologies uncover the mechanisms driving tumor heterogeneity and microenvironmental interactions, opening new opportunities for biomarker discovery and precision medicine.

Because of hyper-complexity, a difficulty to define, multiple stakeholders with conflicting perspectives, and a lack of clear-cut solutions, wicked problems necessitate innovative and adaptive strategies. Operations research (OR) has been a valuable tool
