KCNJ4 variants disrupt inward‐rectifier potassium channel function and cause refractory epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder with a strong genetic basis, most frequently arising from ion channel dysfunction. Although multiple inwardly rectifying potassium (Kir) channels have been implicated in epileptogenesis, the contribution of KCNJ4, which encodes the Kir2.3 channel, has not previously been established in human

On the purpose of ambiguous utterances. [PDF]

, 2019
Traditionally, linguists have treated ambiguity as a bug in the communication system, something to be avoided or ex-plained away.

Anuran call properties as reliable indicators of environmental suitability for reproduction

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
The onset of animal breeding activity is often accompanied by auditory signals, typically produced by males, that indicate reproductive status to potential mates and competitors. Here, using male anuran advertisement calls as a case study, we present the novel hypothesis that characteristics of ectotherm auditory signals that are modulated by ...

Biodiversity as a Dominant Force in Shaping Ethnic Music Styles 生物多样性:塑造民族音乐风格的主导力量

Integrative Conservation, EarlyView.
Our findings show that plant, bird, and mammal diversity considerably shape musical features such as vocal range and ornamental sounds, more so than geography or lifestyle. Our study provides the first empirical evidence linking biodiversity to ethnic music styles. Protecting biodiversity, the musical and cultural will be protected.

The Alignment Risks of AI Overconfidence about Consciousness

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many contemporary AI systems (as of May 2025) have expressed extreme confidence in current and near‐future AI lacking consciousness and moral patiency. This article argues that artificially reinforcing such confidence, even if pragmatically useful, poses a novel alignment risk: as coherence‐seeking AIs become more epistemically principled ...

Giving Up

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Philosophical accounts of long‐term goals focus predominantly on the rationality of perseverance, examining when agents should persist despite evidence of failure. Arguably, these accounts consider that giving up is devoid of value. Conversely, this article argues that giving up has a different epistemic function: generating information about ...

Do Linking‐Expression Substitutions Mitigate Deterministic Interpretations of Genetic Information?

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT It is a common concern that broader audiences interpret scientific information about the genetic correlates and causes of complex human traits in an overly deterministic manner. A frequently proposed way to address this issue is to carefully select the linking expressions used to describe gene–trait relationships when communicating genetic ...
