The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows
Visualizing stepwise evolution of carbon hybridization from sp3 to sp2 and to sp
In our recent published paper in Nature Communications, we present the visualization of stepwise evolution in carbon hybridizations from sp3 to sp2 and to sp states via dehydrogenation and elimination reactions of methylcyano-functionalized molecules on surfaces.
Predicting Daily CO₂ Emissions with Machine Learning and Deep Learning Models
The recent devastating wildfires in California serve as a reminder of the urgent need for actionable climate solutions. These events, fueled by rising global temperatures and unchecked CO₂ emissions, highlight the importance of understanding and predicting carbon output on a more granular level.
Understanding the Role of Protein Palmitoylation in Sperm Motility
This research is the first to detail the in situ locations and dynamic changes of protein palmitoylation in sperm, elucidating its crucial role in sperm motility and potential mechanisms involved. The findings suggest possible applications for addressing male infertility.
Unraveling the Genetic Legacy of the Korean Long-Tailed Chicken: Chromosome-Level Assembly and Pangenomic Insights
The Korean long-tailed chicken (Ginkkoridak) is a rare breed with extraordinary 1.5-meter tail feathers. Facing near-extinction, this study presents its first chromosome-level genome assembly, plus a 40-genome pangenome, unlocking new insights into Gallus gallus diversity and conservation.
Shifting the paradigm for non-contact anterior cruciate ligament rupture to emphasize intrinsic genetic risk in humans and dogs
Non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture is a common injury. The underlying mechanism has long been mischaracterized as principally mechanical. Our work reveals that ACL rupture is a heritable, polygenic disease. This breakthrough challenges the causal paradigm and advances patient care.
From pore to process: an industrially promising application for MOFs in separating the most potent greenhouse gas
SF6/N2 separation is crucial for sustainable development. Here, we prepared low-cost and robust MOF composite pellets and established a vacuum temperature swing adsorption process with both high recovery and high purity of SF6.
Synaptogenesis: A Key Process in Alzheimer's Disease (AD)
Understanding how synaptogenesis is affected in AD provides essential insights into disease progression and opens avenues for therapeutic intervention.
