Small heat shock protein (sHSP) is a superfamily of molecular chaperone and is found from archaea to human. Recent researches have demonstrated that sHSPs participate in a series of biological processes and are even closely associated with serious di...
In order to improve the reliability, safety and whole digestive applicability of the gastrointestinal microrobot (GMR), a novel inchworm-like GMR is proposed in this paper. The expanding mechanism of the robot adopts an overlapping expanding arm stru...
This study aimed to assess the predictive ability of different machine learning (ML) methods for genomic prediction of reproductive traits in Nellore cattle. The studied traits were age at first calving (AFC), scrotal circumference (SC), early pregna...
Growing industrial utilization of enzymes and the increasing availability of metagenomic data highlight the demand for effective methods of targeted identification and verification of novel enzymes from various environmental microbiota. Xylanases are...
Extensive computational modeling has focused on the hippocampal formation and related cortical structures. This introduction describes the topics addressed by individual articles in part two of this special issue of the journal Hippocampus on the top...
Deep neural networks (DNNs) excel at visual recognition tasks and are increasingly used as a modeling framework for neural computations in the primate brain. Just like individual brains, each DNN has a unique connectivity and representational profile...

In soft robotics, bio-inspiration ranges from hard- to software. Orb web spiders provide excellent examples for both. Adapted sensors on their legs may use morphological computing to fine-tune feedback loops that supervise the handling and accurate p...
Offshore oil and gas platforms have a finite life of production operations. Once production ceases, decommissioning options for the platform are assessed. The role that a platform's jacket plays as fish habitat can inform the decommissioning decision...
