Investigating the relationship between music perception skills and episodic musical memory by Nur Diyanah Abdul Wahab

“…Instead, lure discrimination performance was predicted by melody and tempo perception skills, suggesting greater distinction of musical skills in relation to precision memory. Current findings highlight the importance of engaging in music production activities for the development of musical competence in the context of music education curriculum planning, and elucidates the underlying distinction in music perception skills to enhance musical learning and memory.…”

Extreme events and gender-based violence: a mixed-methods systematic review by van Daalen, KR, Savić Kallesøe, S, Davey, F, Dada, S, Jung, L, Singh, L, Issa, R, Emilian, CA, Kuhn, I, Keygnaert, I, Nilsson, M

“…Most studies showed an increase in one or several GBV forms during or after extreme events, often related to economic instability, food insecurity, mental stress, disrupted infrastructure, increased exposure to men, tradition, and exacerbated gender inequality. These findings could have important implications for sexual-transformative and gender-transformative interventions, policies, and implementation. …”

Experimental investigation of nonlinear forces on a monopile offshore wind turbine foundation under directionally spread waves by Ding, H, Zhao, G, Tang, T, Taylor, PH, Adcock, TAA, Dai, S, Ning, D, Chen, L, Li, J, Wang, R, Zang, J

“…The clean separation of individual harmonics enables the estimation of contributions from each harmonic. Our findings are in line with previous research, showing that nonlinear loading can constitute up to 40% of the total under certain wave conditions. …”

Revealing the role of fluoride-rich battery electrode interphases by operando transmission electron microscopy by Gong, C, Pu, S, Gao, X, Yang, S, Liu, J, Ning, Z, Rees, G, Capone, I, Pi, L, Liu, B, Hartley, G, Fawdon, J, Pasta, M, Grovenor, C, Bruce, P, Robertson, A

“…By combination with quantitative composition analysis via mass spectrometry, we identify that the fluoride-rich SEI suppresses overall lithium loss through drastically reducing the quantity of dead Li formation and preventing electrolyte decomposition. These findings highlight the importance of appropriately tailoring the SEI for facilitating consistent and uniform lithium dissolution, and its potent role in governing the plated lithium’s structure.…”

From relaxed beliefs under psychedelics (REBUS) to revised beliefs after psychedelics (REBAS) by Zeifman, RJ, Spriggs, MJ, Kettner, H, Lyons, T, Rosas, FE, Mediano, PAM, Erritzoe, D, Carhart-Harris, RL

“…We also introduce a new measure for examining the robustness of these preliminary findings and the utility of the REBUS model.…”

Reconciling founder variant multiplicity of HIV-1 infection with the rate of CD4+ decline by Baxter, J, Villabona-Arenas, J, Thompson, RN, Hue, S, Regoes, R, Kouyos, R, Gunthard, H, Albert, J, Brown, AL, Atkins, K

“…Where multiple variants initiate infection, recipient set point viral load (SpVL) and the rate of CD4+ 4 T cell decline may be elevated, but these findings remain inconsistent. Here, we summarised the evidence for this phenomenon, then tested whether previous studies possessed sufficient statistical power to reliably identify a true effect of multiple variant infection associating with higher SpVL. …”

Advancements in glioma segmentation: comparing the U-Net and DeconvNet models by Mohammed, AA, Gonzales, RA

Turing pattern formation in reaction-cross-diffusion systems with a bilayer geometry by Diaz, A, Krause, A, Maini, PK, Gaffney, E, Seirin-Lee, S

“…A linear stability analysis is carried out around a spatially homogeneous equilibrium state in the asymptotic limit of weak and strong coupling strengths, where quantitative approximations of the bifurcation curve can be computed. Our theoretical findings, for an arbitrary number of reacting species, reveal quantitative Turing conditions, highlighting when the coupling mechanism between the layered regions can either trigger patterning or stabilize a spatially homogeneous equilibrium regardless of the independent patterning state of each layer. …”

Soil microbiomes show consistent and predictable responses to extreme events by Knight, CG, Nicolitch, O, Griffiths, RI, Goodall, T, Jones, B, Weser, C, Langridge, H, Davison, J, Dellavalle, A, Eisenhauer, N, Gongalsky, KB, Hector, A, Jardine, E, Kardol, P, Maestre, FT, Schädler, M, Semchenko, M, Stevens, C, Tsiafouli, MΑ, Vilhelmsson, O, Wanek, W, de Vries, FT

“…Our results suggest that soil microbiomes from different climates share unified responses to extreme climatic events, but that predicting the extent of community change may require knowledge of the local microbiome. These findings advance our understanding of soil microbial responses to extreme events, and provide a first step for making general predictions about the impact of extreme climatic events on soil functioning.…”
