On the ‘transmission sense of information’ [PDF]
Biology & Philosophy, 2012 In order to illuminate the role of information in biology, Bergstrom and Rosvall (Biol Philos 26:159–176, 2011a; Biol Philos 26:195–200, 2011b) propose a ‘transmission sense of information’ which builds on Shannon’s theory. At the core of the transmission sense is an appeal to the reduction in uncertainty in receivers and to etiological function.

Vascular endothelial‐cadherin as a marker of endothelial injury in preclinical Alzheimer disease
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1926-1940, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Objective Endothelial dysfunction is an early and prevalent pathology in Alzheimer disease (AD). We here investigate the value of vascular endothelial‐cadherin (VEC) as a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) marker of endothelial injury in preclinical AD.
