AbstractUnderstanding and treating human diseases require valid animal models. Leveraging the genetic diversity in rhesus macaque populations across eight primate centers in the United States, we conduct targeted-sequencing on 1845 individuals for 374 genes linked to inherited human retinal and neurodevelopmental diseases. We identify over 47,000 single nucleotide variants, a substantial proportion of which are shared with human populations.

His mission: Fly across the English Channel to France to drop bombs on Nazi fortifications along the Normandy coast. Lyons didn’t know when the Allied invasion would take place, but he had sensed a steadily increasing atmosphere of urgency all around the airfield.

It has been a year since the European Commission (“EC”) designated the first tranche of very large online platforms and very large online search engines (together, “VLOPSEs”). While these companies continue to navigate the first turn of the risk management lifecycle, it is worth reflecting on some of the lessons learned so far and looking ahead to what will be a very busy summer/autumn period for VLOPSEs providers.

AbstractLarge-scale functional networks have been characterized in both rodent and human brains, typically by analyzing fMRI-BOLD signals. However, the relationship between fMRI-BOLD and underlying neural activity is complex and incompletely understood, which poses challenges to interpreting network organization obtained using this technique. Additionally, most work has assumed a disjoint functional network organization (i.e., brain regions belong to one and only one network).
