Substance use disorders (SUD) are chronic, relapsing conditions marked by high variability in treatment response and frequent relapse. This variability arises from complex interactions among behavioral, environmental, and biological factors unique to...
We present MBPert, a generic computational framework for inferring species interactions and predicting dynamics in time-evolving ecosystems from perturbation and time-series data. In this work, we contextualize the framework in microbial ecosystem mo...
Postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) increases the risk of periodontitis (PD), yet the shared mechanisms remain unclear. Rho-signal transduction genes may play a role due to their involvement in bone remodeling. This study aimed to explore Rho-related ...
To enhance the motion flexibility and environmental adaptability of underwater robots, this study proposes a novel design, Seeker-M, inspired by the locomotion mechanism of the mantis shrimp. The robot imitates the mantis shrimp's multi-pleopod swimm...
Theranostic hydrogels represent a groundbreaking approach by integrating therapeutic and diagnostic capabilities within a single platform, enabling real-time monitoring of wounds and precise treatment applications. These advanced materials are engine...
The degeneration of midbrain dopamine (DA) neurons disrupts the neural control of natural behavior, such as walking, posture, and gait in Parkinson's disease. While some aspects of motor symptoms can be managed by DA replacement therapies, others res...
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic disease of the central nervous system. The occurrence of MS is a phased process while its cause is still unclear. Here, by combining white matter single-nucleus transcriptomic datasets from MS and control samples,...
Multi-cellular organoids are self-assembly aggregates that mimic biological functions and developmental processes of many tissue types in vitro. They are widely employed for disease modeling and functional studies. Hypothalamus-pituitary organoids ca...

Obtaining predictive models of a neural system is notoriously challenging. Detailed models suffer from excess model complexity and are difficult to fit efficiently. Simplified models must negotiate a tradeoff between tractability, predictive power, a...
Soil-transmitted helminth (STH) infections remain a significant public health concern in rural areas, often leading to nutritional and physical impairment, particularly in children. This study aimed to assess the prevalence and associated factors of ...
