Current preclinical studies of AAV‐mediated gene therapy explore different strategies based on the characteristics of inner ear diseases. For genetic hearing loss, approaches include the replacement of a “good gene,” removal of a “bad gene,” or direct correction of mutations through base editing.

Biosecurity Primitive: Polymerase X‐based Genetic Physical Unclonable Functions
What if every cell line can carry an unforgeable genomic fingerprint—one that proves its origin, ensures its authenticity, and thwarts unauthorized duplication? Here, CRISPR‐induced DNA lesions paired with TdT‐mediated repair produce robust, unique, and unclonable genetic signatures—advancing the concept of molecular Physical Unclonable Functions (PUF)

Generation of Neural Organoids and Their Application in Disease Modeling and Regenerative Medicine
Neural organoids provide a versatile platform for neurological research. Advances in organoid technology have partially achieved human neural tissue complexity in terms of tissue structure, cell diversity, and neural signaling, offering insights into neural disorders and regenerative strategies. Technology advances from biomaterials, bio‐manufacturing,

BRD4 Signaling Maintains the Differentiated State of β Cells
The comprehensive exploration revealed the critical role of BRD4 in β cells. BRD4 plays a fundamental role in maintaining β cell differentiation because both long‐term and acute BRD4 deficiency result in a reduction in insulin secretion and downregulation of differentiation markers.

Increasing sedentary time, minimum dietary energy requirements, and food security assessment
Abstract We compute corrections for sedentary behavior in physical activity levels (PALs) and incorporate them along with corrections for over estimation of basal metabolic rates (BMRs) into threshold caloric intakes, known as minimum dietary energy requirements (MDERs).
