Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) are two representative per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) that have attracted increasing attention due to their environmental persistence and potential health risks, while ...
Soil-transmitted helminths primarily comprise Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichuris trichiura, and hookworms, infecting more than 600 million people globally, particularly in underserved communities. Manual microscopy of Kato-Katz thick smears is a widely ...
Neurons in the brain are known to encode diverse information through their spiking activity, primarily reflecting external stimuli and internal states. However, whether individual neurons also embed information about their own anatomical location wit...

Coral reef managers require various forms of data. While monitoring is typically the preserve of scientists, there is an increasing need to collect larger scale, up-to-date data to prioritise limited conservation resources. Citizen science combined w...
Brain-machine interfaces (BMI) aim to restore function to persons living with spinal cord injuries by 'decoding' neural signals into behavior. Recently, nonlinear BMI decoders have outperformed previous state-of-the-art linear decoders, but few studi...
This study constructs a multi-stage hybrid forecasting model using hog price time series data and its influencing factors to improve prediction accuracy. First, seven benchmark models including Prophet, ARIMA, and LSTM were applied to raw price serie...
Lameness is one of the major production diseases affecting dairy cattle. It is associated with negative welfare in affected cattle, economic losses at the farm level, and adverse effects on sustainability. Prompt identification of lameness is necessa...
Size-spectra and taxonomic diversity are important indicators to study the dynamics of communities and to inform conservation in aquatic ecosystems. To date, few studies aimed at modelling the distribution of reef fish diversity at small spatial scal...
Optical stimulation ofneurons requires prior transfection with light gated ion channels. This additional step brings complexity and requires optimization. Simplification of the process will ease the undertaking of studies on biological neural network...
