The gopher tortoise (Gopherus polyphemus), a keystone species and ecosystem engineer, has declined by ~80% over the past century due to primarily habitat loss. In a 28‐year resurvey of federally protected Mobile County and state‐protected Baldwin County, we found tortoise populations persisted at ~59% and ~31% of sites, respectively, with significant ...

Background Soluble oligomeric forms of Tau protein have emerged as crucial players in the propagation of Tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Our objective is to introduce a single-domain antibody (sdAb) named 2C5 as a novel radiotracer for the ...

Non‐Rigid 3D Shape Correspondences: From Foundations to Open Challenges and Opportunities
Abstract Estimating correspondences between deformed shape instances is a long‐standing problem in computer graphics; numerous applications, from texture transfer to statistical modelling, rely on recovering an accurate correspondence map. Many methods have thus been proposed to tackle this challenging problem from varying perspectives, depending on ...

RNA interference (RNAi) has the potential to treat diseases caused by dominant, gain-of-function type of gene mutations. In these diseases, one allele is mutated and produces a toxic protein, whereas the other allele is normal and performs vital ...

Establishing Shape Correspondences: A Survey
Abstract Shape correspondence between surfaces in 3D is a central problem in geometry processing, concerned with establishing meaningful relations between surfaces. While all correspondence problems share this goal, specific formulations can differ significantly: Downstream applications require certain properties that correspondences must satisfy ...

Quibbling with the LRB over "Hackers"
In a recent piece for the LRB, Mattathias Schwartz gives an inside look at the truly scary world of carding, the practice of stealing credit card information, through a review of Mischa Glenny's new book <i> DataMarket: How Hackers Became the New Mafia </i> .

Limit states for the damage assessment of bridges supported on LRB bearings
There is now a common awareness that excessive strength is neither essential nor a synonymous of good performance in strong earthquakes. It is widely recognized that the design process should put more emphasis on predicting structural damage, according to the performance -based design philosophy. This paper presents an approach for assessing the damage
