By Dr. David Clark6/24/24  Hemophilia B suffers from having too few patients as subjects for research.  Because of that, some of the knowledge about hemophilia B is extrapolated from studies of hemophilia A.  We figure that the disorders are similar enough that what is true for A might also be true for B.  This is even more so the case for inhibitor research where there are even fewer B inhibitor patients.

ViewpointThe Neuron vs the Synapse: Which One Is in the Driving Seat? Published 1 April 2024A new theoretical framework for plastic neural networks predicts dynamical regimes where synapses rather than neurons primarily drive the network’s behavior, leading to an alternative candidate mechanism for working memory in the brain. See more in PhysicsClick to ExpandPopular Summary Neural circuits typically involve many neurons communicating through synaptic connections.

AbstractWarming can have profound impacts on ecological communities. However, explorations of how differences in biogeography and productivity might reshape the effect of warming have been limited to theoretical or proxy-based approaches: for instance, studies of latitudinal temperature gradients are often conflated with other drivers (e.g., species richness). Here, we overcome these limitations by using local geothermal temperature gradients across multiple high-latitude stream ecosystems.
