Strain-specific parallel evolution drives short-term diversification during Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm formation by McElroy, Kerensa E., Hui, Janice G. K., Woo, Jerry K. K., Luk, Alison W. S., Webb, Jeremy S., Kjelleberg, Staffan, Rice, Scott A., Thomas, Torsten

“…Short-term diversification and selection within populations is, however, largely uncharacterised, as existing studies typically focus on fixed substitutions. Here, we use whole-genome deep-sequencing to capture the spectrum of mutations arising during biofilm development for two Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains. …”

Toward a neuroscientific understanding of play: a dimensional coding framework for analyzing infant–adult play patterns by Neale, Dave, Clackson, Kaili, Georgieva, Stanimira, Dedetas, Hatice, Scarpate, Melissa, Wass, Sam, Leong, Victoria

“…It is intended that this fine-grained coding of play behavior will be easily assimilated with, and inform, future analysis of neural data that is also collected during adult–infant play. In conclusion, here, we present a novel framework for analyzing the continuous time-evolution of adult–infant play patterns, underpinned by biologically informed state coding along sensorimotor, cognitive and socio-emotional dimensions. …”

Electronic structure of topological quantum materials probed by angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy by Schröter, N

“…Yet, despite multiple theoretical proposals and experimental reports, "smoking-gun" evidence for the existence of a weak topological phase is still elusive. Here, by performing ARPES measurements for the surface states of two distinct crystal surfaces, we can conclusively confirm the existence of a weak topological phase in the semimetal TaSb2, which may be related to its negative longitudinal magnetoresistance. …”

Electronic structure of paramagnetic transition metal complexes by Al-Ameed, K

The role of p53 and ASPP2 in neurodegenerative disease by Turnquist, C

“…Many of the cellular responses to aging and age-related diseases, including apoptosis and senescence, converge on the tumor suppressor pathway, p53.</p> <p>Here I examine the molecular basis for loss of cell polarity and accelerated cell death mediated by apoptosis stimulating protein of p53 2 (ASPP2) in neurodegeneration. …”
