A Simple Method for RNA‐Seq of Manually Isolated Chromatophores in Oryzias Fishes

Development, Growth &Differentiation, Volume 68, Issue 3, April 2026.
ABSTRACT RNA sequencing (RNA‐seq) has become an essential tool for analyzing gene expression and exploring cell type–specific transcriptomes. However, sample preparation and quality control remain challenging, as current approaches typically rely on dissecting tissues containing mixed cell populations or using flow cytometry to isolate fluorescently ...

Genome‐Wide DNA Methylation Patterns Predict Age in the Zebra Shark (Stegostoma tigrinum) and Provide Insight Into the Evolution of Vertebrate Aging

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 7, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Epigenomic changes are a hallmark of aging, and DNA methylation (DNAm) has emerged as the most reliable molecular marker of an individual's age. Genome‐wide patterns of age‐associated hypo‐ and hypermethylation have been applied to generate predictive models (i.e., “epigenetic clocks”) capable of estimating chronological age in an increasingly

Utilizing Exhaled Breath and Skin Microbiomes in Assessments of At‐Risk Killer Whales (Orcinus orca)

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT For at‐risk populations of killer whales (Orcinus orca), biological samples can offer information about individual animal status. We hypothesized that low‐yield samples could provide sufficient material for microbiome analysis. We collected and analyzed, with amplicon metabarcoding, breath samples from managed care and free‐ranging killer ...

Golden Gate Bridge, as Always? Eliciting Prototypical Places From Autoregressive Large Language Models via Category Production

Transactions in GIS, Volume 30, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Among the various theories of categorization, Eleanor Rosch's prototype theory stands out as both influential and contested. In contrast to the classical theory of concepts, prototype theory posits that humans conceptualize the world using category structures where exemplars vary in their degree of membership.

ASH: A Multi‐Scale, Multi‐Theory Modeling Program

Journal of Computational Chemistry, Volume 47, Issue 8, 30 March 2026.
ASH is a Python‐based computational chemistry software for multi‐scale and multi‐theory computations (including QM/MM and ONIOM) and MD simulations. The program is designed for flexible workflows of molecular and biomolecular systems, allowing geometry optimizations, numerical frequencies, high‐level thermochemistry, MD and free‐energy simulations, NEB
