Introducing Sedatic Hunger: A New Lens on Why We Eat
The traditional classification of hunger into physiological and hedonic types overlooks an important third category: hunger as a purely functional act, devoid of sensory or emotional motivation.
Behind the Paper: Super-Resolution Stimulated X-ray Raman Spectroscopy
We harnessed the noise inherent in typical self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) x-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) pulses to demonstrate a nonlinear x-ray spectroscopic tool that circumvents instrumental resolution and beats the Fourier-limit by employing advanced correlation techniques.
Silent influencer: How non-antibiotics tip the microbial balance of the gut microbiome
Some human-targeted drugs can alter gut microbes, creating a favorable environment for pathogens like Salmonella to thrive.
Trajectory-based global sensitivity analysis in multiscale models
Introducing a novel global sensitivity analysis (GSA) framework for agent-based models (ABMs) that addresses their unique features. This method enhances understanding of complex dynamics and supports informed decision-making in model development. Read the full paper here.
