Specialized replication mechanisms maintain genome stability at human centromeres by Scelfo, A, Angrisani, A, Grillo, M, Barnes, BM, Muyas, F, Sauer, CM, Leung, CWB, Dumont, M, Grison, M, Mazaud, D, Garnier, M, Guintini, L, Nelson, L, Esashi, F, Cortés-Ciriano, I, Taylor, SS, Déjardin, J, Wilhelm, T, Fachinetti, D

“…We show that replication stress, hallmark of pre-cancerous lesions, promotes centromeric breakage in mitosis, due to spindle forces and endonuclease activities. Mechanistically, we unveil unique dynamics of the centromeric replisome distinct from the rest of the genome. …”

Sororin actively maintains sister chromatid cohesion by Ladurner, Rene, Kreidl, Emanuel, Ivanov, Miroslav P., Ekker, Heinz, Idarraga‐Amado, Maria H., Busslinger, Georg A., Wutz, Gordana, Cisneros, David A., Peters, Jan‐Michael

“…Cohesion between sister chromatids is established during DNA replication but needs to be maintained to enable proper chromosome–spindle attachments in mitosis or meiosis. Cohesion is mediated by cohesin, but also depends on cohesin acetylation and sororin. …”

Wearable bio-adhesive metal detector array (BioMDA) for spinal implants

“…Accordingly, herein, we report on the development and engineering of a bio-adhesive metal detector array (BioMDA), a potential wearable solution for real-time, non-invasive positional analyses of osseous implants within the spine. The electromagnetic coupling mechanism and intimate interfacial adhesion enable the precise sensing of the metallic implants position without the use of radiation. …”

Deep learning approach to cervical segmentation from routine CT images by Duan, Yiming

“…To address the sequential and location-dependent nature of bone segmen tation information, the dissertation proposes a pre-training model for location information, and combines 2.5D image input and labeled multi-channel coding to semantically segment 3D cervical spine CT images. This method can accu rately extract the information of bone joint location of slices and incorporate it into image features in the form of channels, which can improve the accuracy of multiple bone joint segmentation and classification. …”
