Determination of diffusion length from within a confined region with the use of EBIC by Ong, Vincent K. S., Wu, Dethau.

“…This cannot be achieved using the conventional method, which evaluates the negative reciprocal of the slope of the EBIC signals line scan plotted on a semi-logarithmic scale. A limitation of this method is that the beam entrance surface of the sample is assumed to have negligible surface recombination.…”

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

“…When trained on data from amyloid-𝛽 positive and negative subjects, the neural network clearly distinguishes between both groups and uncovers a more subtle relationship between amyloid-𝛽 and tau than previously postulated. In line with the amyloid-tau dual pathway hypothesis, our results show that the presence of toxic amyloid-𝛽 influences the accumulation of tau, particularly in the earlier disease stages. …”
