Food System Scenarios in Uncertain Futures: A Case Study on Long-Term Local Food System Planning in Revelstoke, Canada

open access: yesAgriculture
Scenario planning is a potentially effective method for supporting long-term planning for sustainable and resilient food systems; however, scenario exercises are often limited by too much focus on a single preferred future, not accounting for uncertainty

Energy systems in scenarios at net-zero CO2 emissions

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Achieving net-zero CO2 emissions has become the explicitgoal of many climate-energy policies around the world. Although many studies have assessed net-zero emissions pathways, the common features and tradeoffs of energy systems across global scenarios at

Cell geometry and membrane protein crowding constrain Escherichia coli growth rate, overflow metabolism, respiration, and maintenance energy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This

Design of an Efficient Model for Psychological Disease Analysis and Prediction Using Machine Learning and Genomic Data Samples

open access: yesBig Data and Cognitive Computing
There is a rapid growth in mental disorders, thus leading to a pressing demand for more sophisticated diagnosis techniques. Clinical assessments and symptomatic analyses for traditional diagnostics suffer from subjectivity, delayed diagnosis, and ...

Electron transfer between complexes III and IV in S. cerevisiae mitochondrial membranes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation in S. cerevisiae mitoplasts is limited by complex IV catalytic capacity, rather than two‐dimensional cytochrome c diffusion. At physiological cytochrome c : supercomplex ratios at salinity equivalent to that of 20 mm monovalent salt, activity is maximized, indicating that this low ionic strength accurately mimics

Scenarios—using the complexity frame of reference to inform the construction of available futures in the possibility space

open access: yesFrontiers in Complex Systems
The global socio-ecological system in the era of the Capitalocene—the world system created by the use of fossil fuels to provide energy for the development of a growth-oriented capitalist logic in all areas of production and consumption—is facing a set ...

Critical thinking perspectives of undergraduate students

open access: yesAdvancements in Agricultural Development, 2020
Today’s learners need support in not only developing capacity for a global mindset, but also for thinking critically about the world. Employers are seeking graduates who can enter the workforce prepared to work within agriculture with the ability to ...

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Scenario Modelling of University International Activities Based on Fuzzy Cognitive Maps

open access: yesProceedings of the International Conference on Applied Innovations in IT
In this article the concept of managing the effectiveness of international activities of universities based on fuzzy cognitive maps is discussed. The focus on the international relations currently plays an important role in almost all universities, as ...
