Genetics of female and male reproductive traits and their relationship with health, longevity and consequences for offspring by Benonisdottir, S, Straub, VJ, Kong, A, Mills, MC

“…Using the GWAS Catalog as a basis, from 159 relevant studies, we isolate 37 genes that harbor association signals for four or more reproductive traits, more than half of which are linked to rare Mendelian disorders, including ten genes linked to reproductive-related disorders: <em>FSHB</em>, <em>MCM8</em>, <em>DNAH2</em>, <em>WNT4</em>, <em>ESR1</em>, <em>IGSF1</em>, <em>THRB</em>, <em>BRWD1</em>, <em>CYP19A1</em> and <em>PTPRF</em>. …”

Within-host evolution of HIV-1 and the analysis of transmissible diversity by English, SE

“…To demonstrate the apparent randomness of transmission, I test the null-hypothesis that hard selection accounts for between-host viral divergence in a rare case study of contemporaneous infection. I explain how the experimental data that I have generated and the analyses I have carried out address certain basic assumptions and predictions about HIV-1 transmission and may inform current strategies for vaccine design. …”

Thermally activated delayed fluorophore and plasmonic structures integrated with perovskites for X-ray scintillation and imaging by Jana, A, Cho, S, Sasikumar, K, Ju, H, Im, H, Taylor, RA

“…The development of inexpensive and easily processable X-ray-sensitive materials is of great importance because a number of commercial scintillators, such as LaBr3(Ce), Gd3Al3Ga2O12(Ce), Cs2HfCl6, NaI:Tl, CsI:Tl, and LiI:Eu, are fabricated using highly toxic or rare-earth elements via high-temperature synthesis. …”

The low overpotential regime of acidic water oxidation part II: trends in metal and oxygen stability numbers by Scott, Soren B., Sørensen, Jakob E., Rao, Reshma R., Moon, Choongman, Kibsgaard, Jakob, Shao-Horn, Yang, Chorkendorff, Ib

“…The operating conditions of low pH and high potential at the anodes of polymer electrolyte membrane electrolysers restrict the choice of catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) to oxides based on the rare metals iridium or ruthenium. In this work, we investigate the stability of both the metal atoms and, by quantitative and highly sensitive 18O isotope labelling experiments, the oxygen atoms in a series of RuOx and IrOx electrocatalysts during the OER in the mechanistically interesting low overpotential regime. …”

Compositional dependence of spintronic properties in Pt/GdCo films by Suzuki, Daniel H, Lee, Byung Hun, Beach, Geoffrey SD

“…We find a 5× increase in effective spin Hall angle with increasing Gd concentration, suggesting an improvement in spin transfer efficiency in rare earth materials. Finally, we observe a monotonic decrease in the DMI strength with increasing Gd content, suggesting that DMI arises from the Pt/Co interfacial interaction.…”
