Discovering causal models for structural, construction and defense-related engineering phenomena
Defence TechnologyCausality, the science of cause and effect, has made it possible to create a new family of models. Such models are often referred to as causal models. Unlike those of mathematical, numerical, empirical, or machine learning (ML) nature, causal models hope

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

A practical method to control spatiotemporal confounding in environmental impact studies
MethodsX, 2018 Separating natural spatiotemporal variation from the impact of human activities has long been a challenge in environmental impact studies. To overcome this problem, a causal modelling method based on spatiotemporal data, integrated with existing ...

The human gut microbiome across the life course
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

A semantics for counterfactuals in quantum causal models
New Journal of PhysicsWe introduce a formalism for the evaluation of counterfactual queries in the framework of quantum causal models, generalising Pearl’s semantics for counterfactuals in classical causal models, thus completing the last rung in the quantum analogue of Pearl’

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Practically effective adjustment variable selection in causal inference
Journal of Physics: ComplexityIn the estimation of causal effects, one common method for removing the influence of confounders is to adjust the variables that satisfy the back-door criterion. However, it is not always possible to uniquely determine sets of such variables.

Individual Causal Inference with Structural Causal Model
CoRRIndividual causal inference (ICI) uses causal inference methods to understand and predict the effects of interventions on individuals, considering their specific characteristics / facts. It aims to estimate individual causal effect (ICE), which varies across individuals.
