Investigating factors contributing to enhancer-promoter interaction by Cornell, LJ

“…Enhancer promoter interactions usually occur within topologically associated domains (TADs); large regions (200-2000kb) of interacting chromatin delimited by binding sites for the insulating factor CTCF. Whilst we know that all these mechanisms play a role, it remains unclear how each contributes. …”

Intraday adaptation to extreme temperatures in outdoor activity by Fan, Yichun, Wang, Jianghao, Obradovich, Nick, Zheng, Siqi

“…Combining empirical estimates with outputs from downscaled climate models, we show that unmitigated climate change will generate sizable activity-depressing and activity-delaying effects in summer when projected on an hourly resolution. Our findings call for more attention in leveraging real-time activity data to understand intraday adaptation behaviors and their associated health consequences in climate change research.…”
