Two for tau: automated model discovery reveals two-stage tau aggregation dynamics in Alzheimer’s disease by Stockman, CA, Goriely, A, Kuhl, E, Jerusalem, A, Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative

“…We propose an innovative approach that uses constitutive neural networks to autonomously discover bell-shaped aggregation functions with multiple peaks from clinical positron emission tomography (PET) data of misfolded tau protein. Our method reveals previously overlooked two-stage aggregation dynamics by uncovering a twoterm ordinary differential equation that links the local accumulation rate to the tau concentration. …”

Bacterial biofilm colonization and succession in tropical marine waters are similar across different types of stone materials used in seawall construction by Summers, Stephen, Pek, Y. Shona, Vinod, Deepthi P., McDougald, Diane, Todd, Peter A., Birch, William R., Rice, Scott A.

“…Metagenomic assessment of marine microbial communities indicated no significant impact of material on microbial diversity, irrespective of the diverse surface chemistry and topography. Based on KEGG pathway analysis, surface properties appeared to influence the community composition and function during the initial stages of biofilm development, but this effect disappeared by Day 31. …”

Evaluation of rabies awareness and the population dynamics of free-roaming and owned dogs in Herat city, Afghanistan by Nasiry, Zabihullah

“…These aims were achieved by a Door to door household questionnaire survey, Random-digit dial telephone questionnaire survey and Photographic sight-re-sight method. A total of 928 Free-roaming dogs (FRD) were identified through 3172 sightings, and total of free-roaming population were estimated 1821 (95% Confidence Interval (CI): 1565-2077), which led to an estimate of 10 dogs/km2 with the human: free-roaming dog ratio of 315:1. …”
