Towards Synergistic Understanding of Language Processing in Biological and Artificial Systems by Hosseini Asl, Eghbal

“…Furthermore, the average degree of sentence straightening in the deep layers of the model correlates with corpus-based estimates of sentence surprisal, which are linked to human comprehension difficulty (e.g., as reflected in reading times). Collectively, these lines of work provide essential ingredients for building a more computationally precise model of language processing in the human brain, leveraging synergies with artificial neural network language models.…”

The effect of the amyloid-beta peptide on the fluidity of cell membranes : a study by fluorescence correlation spectroscopy by Ng, Justin Wei Qing

“…To this end, we used imaging TIRF-fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (ITIR-FCS) to make measurements of fluidity of one bulk membrane probe, DiI, and two ordered/raft-type membrane probes, a transiently expressed GPI-linked GFP and cholera toxin subunit B, on the membranes of living cells that were exposed to Aβ. Three cell lines – SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma, U87 human glioma and Neuro-2a mouse neuroblastoma – were selected for our study based on their origin in brain tissue and previous use in Aβ-related studies. …”

ESBL and AmpC β-lactamase encoding genes in E. coli from pig and pig farm workers in Vietnam and their association with mobile genetic elements by Hounmanou, Yaovi Mahuton Gildas, Bortolaia, Valeria, Dang, Son Thi Thanh, Truong, Duong, Olsen, John E., Dalsgaard, Anders

“…The isolates carrying the plasmids, even those with plasmids of similar types, showed wide genetic variation with high number of SNPs, suggesting horizontal spread of plasmids into different clonal lines. Their virulence profiles did not confirm to known pathotypes, suggesting that unrelated commensals are a main reservoir for ESBL and AmpC β-lactamases in both humans and pigs. …”
