Adaptive Network Stabilization Despite Profound Structural Reorganization in Human Organotypic Cultures

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Adult human organotypic cortical slices undergo marked neuronal loss, laminar disruption, and glial activation, yet their network activity progressively stabilizes after a variable period. Electrophysiology, longitudinal calcium imaging, and quantitative histology show that structurally remodeled human circuits show adaptive capacity resulting in ...

Gender Stereotypes

open access: yesAnnual Review of Psychology, 2018
There are many differences between men and women. To some extent, these are captured in the stereotypical images of these groups. Stereotypes about the way men and women think and behave are widely shared, suggesting a kernel of truth. However, stereotypical expectations not only reflect existing differences, but also impact the way men and women ...

Polarization Holographic 4D Phenotyping Reveals Nanoplastic Induced Dysfunction in Zooplankton

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Contaminant‐induced dysfunction in complex aquatic organisms remains difficult to resolve across scales. Polarization Holographic Imaging Microscopy (PHIM) integrates polarization‐sensitive holography with computational volumetric reconstruction for label‐free phenotyping of zooplankton in natural seawater, revealing that nanoplastic stress drives ...

Drug Repurposing for Treating NCOR‐Related Intellectual Disability

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An autism‐associated NCOR1 heterozygous mutation upregulates NRGs and activates NRG backward signaling in hypothalamic GABAergic neurons in mouse models, leading to Gabra2 downregulation and cognitive deficits, which can be therapeutically targeted by repurposing FDA‐approved drugs.

Arhgef1 Deletion Disrupts Early Cortical Neurogenesis via PAK1 Overactivation and Causes Motor Dysfunction in Adulthood

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ARHGEF1 plays a pivotal role in both embryonic cortical neurogenesis and adult motor function. During early development, it governs genesis of deep‐layer cortical neurons by negatively regulating RAC1/CDC42‐PAK1‐Cofilin signaling. In adulthood, ARHGEF1 is important for the maintenance of neuronal morphology and activity in the motor cortex, ensuring ...

Extension Economists: Valued in Mission, Penalized in Practice

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As the public engagement arm of the land‐grant mission, we argue that Extension faculty in US agricultural economics departments face an identity crossroads as they struggle for institutional support. Specifically, we argue that Extension economists function as boundary‐spanning professionals within academic structures that often devalue ...

Resisting Stereotypes

open access: yes, 2022
Issues of equity in education are critically important, including gender equity. Beliefs that women have lower abilities than men are a common explanation for gender gaps in many fields, especially science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM).
