Maintaining Live Discussion in Two-Stage Open Peer Review
Open peer review has been proposed for a number of reasons, in particular, for increasing the transparency of the article selection process for a journal, and for obtaining a broader basis for feedback to the authors and for the acceptance decision.

Effective short-range interaction for spin-singlet P-wave nucleon-nucleon scattering [PDF]
Distorted-wave methods are used to remove the effects of one- and two-pion exchange up to order Q^3 from the empirical 1P1 phase shift. The one divergence that arises can be renormalised using an order-Q^2 counterterm which is provided by the (Weinberg ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

From concept to regulation: OECD’s role in the development of the DNT in vitro battery
Chemical exposure during critical stages of nervous system development can lead to adverse neurotoxic effects, known as developmental neurotoxicity (DNT).

Coupled-cluster calculations for the ground- and excited-states of the spin-half XXZ model [PDF]
The coupled-cluster method is applied to the spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic XXZ model on a square lattice by employing an approximation which contains two-body long-range correlations and high-order four-body local correlations.

Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

PeerPigeon: A Web Application to Support Generalised Peer Review
Peer Review (also known as Peer Assessment) is an important technique in learning, but can be difficult to support through e-learning due to the complexity and variety of peer review processes.

Models of genetic drift as limiting forms of the Lotka-Volterra competition model [PDF]
The relationship between the Moran model and stochastic Lotka-Volterra competition (SLVC) model is explored via timescale separation arguments. For neutral systems the two are found to be equivalent at long times.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.
