Cell types and synchronous-activity patterns of inspiratory neurons in the preBötzinger complex of mouse medullary slices during early postnatal development

Scientific Reports, 2023
To examine whether and how the inspiratory neuronal network in the preBötzinger complex (preBötC) develops during the early postnatal period, we quantified the composition of the population of inspiratory neurons between postnatal day 1 (p1) and p10 by ...

The Empirical Bayes Estimators of the Variance Parameter of the Normal Distribution with a Normal-Inverse-Gamma Prior Under Stein’s Loss Function

Axioms
For the hierarchical normal and normal-inverse-gamma model, we derive the Bayesian estimator of the variance parameter in the normal distribution under Stein’s loss function—a penalty function that treats gross overestimation and underestimation equally ...

Integrating between-host transmission and within-host immunity to analyze the impact of varicella vaccination on zoster

eLife, 2015
Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) causes chickenpox and reactivation of latent VZV causes herpes zoster (HZ). VZV reactivation is subject to the opposing mechanisms of declining and boosted VZV-specific cellular mediated immunity (CMI).

Who lies? A large-scale reanalysis linking basic personality traits to unethical decision making

Judgment and Decision Making, 2018
Previous research has established that higher levels of trait Honesty-Humility (HH) are associated with less dishonest behavior in cheating paradigms. However, only imprecise effect size estimates of this HH-cheating link are available.

Spectral expansion methods for prediction uncertainty quantification in systems biology

Frontiers in Systems Biology
Uncertainty is ubiquitous in biological systems. For example, since gene expression is intrinsically governed by noise, nature shows a fascinating degree of variability.

Modeling the dynamics of anti-microbial resistant cholera infection with reinfection

Franklin Open
Cholera continues to pose a significant global public health challenge. The occurrence of severe weather events, including floods, droughts, and cyclones, has led to a surge in new cholera outbreaks and exacerbated both epidemic and endemic conditions in

Two-Step Estimation Procedure for Parametric Copula-Based Regression Models for Semi-Competing Risks Data

Entropy
Non-terminal and terminal events in semi-competing risks data are typically associated and may be influenced by covariates. We employed regression modeling for semi-competing risks data under a copula-based framework to evaluate the effects of covariates
