On the suitability and development of layout templates for analog layout reuse and layout-aware synthesis [PDF]
Accelerating the synthesis of increasingly complex analog integrated circuits is key to bridge the widening gap between what we can integrate and what we can design while meeting ever-tightening time-to-market constraints.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

A Modular Generative Approach for Realistic River Deltas: When L-Systems and cGANs Meet
Procedural terrain generation aims to create topographically coherent landscapes with realistic terrain features. Realistic landscapes of our blue planet are not complete without river deltas; however, there is an insufficient advancement in the ...

gMotion: A spatio-temporal grammar for the procedural generation of motion graphics [PDF]
Creating by hand compelling 2D animations that choreograph several groups of shapes requires a large number of manual edits. We present a method to procedurally generate motion graphics with timeslice grammars.

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

AI-Powered Procedural Haptics for Narrative VR: A Systematic Literature Review
Haptic feedback is important for narrative virtual reality (VR), yet authoring remains costly and difficult to scale due to device-specific tuning, placement constraints, and the need for semantically congruent timing.

Rapid pulmonary vein isolation utilizing the third-generation laserballoon – The PhoeniX registry
Background: Balloon-based ablation systems for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) are providing procedural safety and efficacy as well as favourable clinical outcome. Although second-generation laser balloon (LB2) based PVI has been shown safety and efficacy

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...
