A Bayesian Approach for Fast and Accurate Gene Tree Reconstruction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Supplementary tables S1, sections 2.1–2.3, and figures S1–S11 are available at Molecular Biology and Evolution online (http://www.mbe.oxfordjournals.org/).Recent sequencing and computing advances have enabled phylogenetic analyses to expand to both ...

A Linear Bound on the Number of States in Optimal Convex Characters for Maximum Parsimony Distance [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE/ACM Transactions on Computational Biology & Bioinformatics, 2015
Given two phylogenetic trees on the same set of taxa $X$ , the maximum parsimony distance $d_\mathrm{MP}$ is defined as the maximum, ranging over all characters $\chi$ on $X$ , of the absolute difference in parsimony score induced by $\chi$ on the ...

Measurement Invariance of the PROMIS Family Relationships Scale Among Autistic and General Population Adolescents

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Social relationships are a key component of quality of life, a high‐priority outcome for autistic people, and family relationships are critical in adolescence. The PROMIS Family Relationships scale has been well validated for use with the general population, but psychometric validation in the autistic population is lacking.

Inferring Gene Family Histories in Yeast Identifies Lineage Specific Expansions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
PublishedThe complement of genes found in the genome is a balance between gene gain and gene loss. Knowledge of the specific genes that are gained and lost over evolutionary time allows an understanding of the evolution of biological functions.

Comparative evaluation of maximum parsimony and Bayesian phylogenetic reconstruction using empirical morphological data

open access: yesJournal of Evolutionary Biology, 2018
The use of discrete morphological data in Bayesian phylogenetics has increased significantly over the last years with the proposal of total evidence analysis and the treatment of fossils as terminal taxa in Bayesian molecular dating. Both approaches rely

Model‐informed precision dosing of carboplatin in cancer patients by leveraging myelosuppression data from electronic health records

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims This study aimed to develop and validate a population pharmacokinetic‐pharmacodynamic (pop‐PK‐PD) model to describe carboplatin‐induced myelosuppression in cancer patients and support dose individualization. Methods Data from 580 cancer patients treated with carboplatin at Amsterdam UMC between 2019 and 2022 were used for model ...

Family Size Evolution in Drosophila Chemosensory Gene Families: A Comparative Analysis with a Critical Appraisal of Methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Gene turnover rates and the evolution of gene family sizes are important aspects of genome evolution. Here, we use curated sequence data of the major chemosensory gene families from Drosophila-the gustatory receptor, odorant receptor, ionotropic receptor,

Reading hominin life history in fossil bones and teeth: methods to test hypotheses regarding its evolution

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human life history is derived compared to that of our closest living relatives, the great apes. It has been suggested that these derived traits are causally related to aspects of our ecology, social behaviour and cognitive abilities. However, resolving this requires that we know the evolutionary trajectory of our distinctive pattern of growth,

Ancient properties of spider silks revealed by the complete gene sequence of the prey-wrapping silk protein (AcSp1). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Spider silk fibers have impressive mechanical properties and are primarily composed of highly repetitive structural proteins (termed spidroins) encoded by a single gene family.

Does ESG Investing Pay off? Comparing the Performance of ESG and Traditional ETFs Across European and US Markets

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Investors have long recognized the importance of firms in promoting sustainability, leading to the rise of socially responsible investment (SRI). Specifically, there is a growing preference for exchange‐traded funds (ETFs) that prioritize environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles.
