🚀#mdpisymmetry #EditorsChoice Excited to share an Editor's Choice Paper with you. "Cerebral Polymorphisms for Lateralisation: Modelling the Genetic and Phenotypic Architectures of Multiple Functional Modules" 🔸https://lnkd.in/gqb36k47 🔹Author: Chris McManus UCL 🔸Abstract: Recent fMRI and fTCD studies have found that functional modules for aspects of language, praxis, and visuo-spatial functioning, while typically left, left and right hemispheric respectively, frequently show atypical lateralisation. Studies with increasing numbers of modules and participants are finding increasing numbers of module combinations, which here are termed cerebral polymorphisms—qualitatively different lateral organisations of cognitive functions #cerebral #polymorphisms #handedness #genetics #polygenicmodel #brainasymmetry Life Sciences Section of Symmetry

Thrilled to announce our latest work in #NucleicAcidsResearch! Together with my brilliant co-authors, Zain Dardas, Angad Jolly, et al., we've developed "HMZDupFinder," a tool poised to enhance our grasp of genetic diseases. 🧬 This journey has been enriching, and it's an honor to contribute to the field alongside such dedicated researchers. #HMZDupFinder represents not just our effort, but a collective leap forward in clinical genomics. 🔍 Read our paper to see how this innovation could shape future research and healthcare. Discover how #HMZDupFinder advances our understanding of genetic diseases & and opens new avenues in clinical genomics.

My paper with Lei Tao and Bo Wen, “Advancing the frontiers of genomic public administration: From genetics to administrative attitudes, behaviors, and practices,” just came out in Public Administration Review. It outlines an agenda for applying behavioral genetics to study administrative behaviors. https://lnkd.in/g-R8x6r4

Form Joanne Trihn's lab in Luebeck, Germany (Joanne is one of our speakers at #LC2024) Stability of Mosaic Divergent Repeat Interruptions in X-Linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism. The motif in the repeat, in particular divergent interruption, have been shown to associate with repeat stability and age at onset so base-resolution of the sequence may provide prognosis information. https://lnkd.in/ewfBfXv7  

Today we celebrate the discovery of the DNA double helix in 1953 and the completion of the Human Genome Project in 2003. These discoveries are the basis for all the cutting-edge genomics research carried out today 🧬. Today is #DNADay 🔬Within every cell in our bodies, two metres of DNA are carefully folded into a structure smaller than the width of a human hair. DNA is the molecule that defines many of our traits as well as our diseases. That's why at #CNIOStopCancer we pay a lot of attention to it. 🎞 We highlight here some of the CNIO research involving the four letters that makes us unique and may hold the key to curing many diseases. 📷The background image of the first slide is entitled ‘The origin of everything’. It is a high-resolution HCS image from the Opera Phenix system, obtained by imaging specialist Manuel Pérez, CNIO Confocal Microscopy Unit in collaboration with Vanessa Lafarga from the CNIO Genomic Instability group, showing the nucleus of cells (blue). This is where the genetic material, the DNA, is located. The genes contain the orders that determine how the cell functions. https://t.co/XnBxninTY9 https://t.co/DDULKJ15B0

University of Glasgow researchers have helped to develop a new method for understanding the relationships between different DNA sequences and where they come from.   This information has widespread applications, from understanding the development of viruses, such as SARS-CoV-2, the strain of coronavirus that causes COVID-19, to precision medicine, an approach to disease treatment and prevention that takes into account individual genetic information.    The study, led by the Big Data Institute, is published in Genetics and is the featured paper in the September 2024 edition. Dr Anastasia Ignatieva, of the University of Glasgow’s School of Mathematics & Statistics, is a co-author of the study and contributed to developing the new methodology.

🌟 Excited to Share: The Structure of Citrus Tristeza Virus (CTV)! 🌟 I’m thrilled to unveil a detailed structure of the Citrus tristeza virus (CTV), created with the help of ChatGPT and Concept app. 🌿🦠 🧬 Key Highlights: - Shape: Flexuous rod, Length:** 2000 nm, Diameter: 12 nm - Surface: Textured to represent the protein capsid - Genome: Single-stranded (+)-sense RNA, enclosed by two types of capsid proteins - Complexity:Genome size ranges between 19.2 and 19.3 kb, making it one of the largest RNA viruses known! The image not only captures the intricate structure of this virus but also emphasizes its biological significance. The contrasting background and artistic touch make the virus stand out, showcasing its complexity and the meticulous work behind its depiction. 🔬 Dive into the fascinating world of virology and appreciate the marvels of microscopic life! #Virology #CitrusTristezaVirus #RNAvirus #ScienceArt #MicroscopicWorld #InnovationInScience ✨ Let's connect and discuss more about the wonders of virology and the innovative tools driving scientific discoveries! ✨ 🧪🌐🖌️

\#5 Scientific basis for the phenomenon of ghosts: Temperature Imagine you're exploring a dark, abandoned mansion in the middle of the night when suddenly the air around you gets colder. However, if you take a few steps to the left or right, the temperature returns to its previous state. Parapsychologists call this phenomenon cold spots. According to ghost hunters, cold spots can be signs of paranormal activity. When a ghost decides to manifest itself and scare the people around it to death, it requires energy. Therefore, it sucks heat from the objects around it \(including people\), and so-called cold spots appear. However, scientists have another, simpler \(though more boring\) explanation for this. When skeptics investigate haunted houses, what often becomes clear is that cold air enters the room through a window or chimney. However, even if the room has neither a chimney nor windows, the presence of cold spots has a completely rational explanation. The fact is that each object has its own temperature. Some objects may be warmer or colder than others. In order to stabilize the room temperature, objects begin to lose their temperature in a process called convection. So the air temperature can either decrease or increase. Likewise, when dry air enters a room with humid air, the dry air sinks to the floor, while the humid air rises to the ceiling. This air movement will be felt by our skin as coolness \(the human body is warmer\), and it is this process that is a consequence of the so-called manifestations of cold spots. The next time you feel the presence of a ghost and its chilling essence, we recommend turning on the heater. To be continued...
