Proteins are the building blocks of all living things. Protein function must be ascertained if the molecular mechanism of life is to be understood. While CNN is good at capturing short-term relationships, GRU and LSTM can capture long-term dependenci...
Every year biotechnology labs generate a combined total of ∼5.5 million tons of plastic waste. As the global bioeconomy expands, biofoundries will inevitably increase plastic consumption in-step with synthetic biology scaling. Decontamination and reu...
In-flow phase-contrast tomography provides a 3D refractive index of label-free cells in cytometry systems. Its major limitation, as with any quantitative phase imaging approach, is the lack of specificity compared to fluorescence microscopy, thus res...
During starvation in the yeast vacuolar vesicles fuse and lipid droplets (LDs) can become internalized into the vacuole in an autophagic process named lipophagy. There is a lack of tools to quantitatively assess starvation-induced vacuole fusion and...
mRNA levels of all genes in a genome is a critical piece of information defining the overall state of the cell in a given environmental condition. Being able to reconstruct such condition-specific expression in fungal genomes is particularly importan...
Blood-invasive fungal infections can cause the death of patients, while diagnosis of fungal infections is challenging. A high-speed microscopy detection system was constructed that included a microfluidic system, a microscope connected to a high-sp...
Recent advances in computing power triggered the use of artificial intelligence in image analysis in life sciences. To train these algorithms, a large enough set of certified labeled data is required. The trained neural network is then capable of pro...

How genomic differences contribute to phenotypic differences is a major question in biology. The recently characterized genomes, isolation environments, and qualitative patterns of growth on 122 sources and conditions of 1,154 strains from 1,049 fung...
Network inference is used to model transcriptional, signaling, and metabolic interactions among genes, proteins, and metabolites that identify biological pathways influencing disease pathogenesis. Advances in machine learning (ML)-based inference mod...
