The authors employ computational protein design to identify a mini-protein with the potential to enhance binding of the tight junction protein, claudin-5, at the blood-blood barrier with therapeutic potential for neurodegenerative diseases.

The authors use blood smears from individuals with sickle cell disease to correlate sickle cell frequency with the occurrence of vaso-occlusive crises.

This paper looks at the antibacterial and toxic effects of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on Escherichia coli bacteria and Drosophila melanogaster fruit flies. They modified the AgNPs size, concentration, and surface coating to determine the effects on each of the organisms. For both organisms, increased AgNP concentration demonstrated increased toxicity but particle size and surface coating had opposing effects.

The authors looked at how pharmacokinetics changed depending on the use of an in vitro or an in vivo model.

The authors studied the ability of deep learning models to predict droughts in the midwestern United States.

The authors developed a quantum inspired model for stock market fluctuations.

The authors tested the impact of various additives on biopolymer degradation.

Here the authors introduce pressing filtration as a novel, efficient, and low-energy method for extracting dietary fiber from cabbage, which successfully retains heat-sensitive nutrients and achieves a high fiber yield. The study demonstrates the scalability and economic viability of this technique for commercial use, highlighting that the resulting high-fiber cabbage powder can be incorporated into familiar foods like hamburger buns and beef patties without compromising taste or sensory quality.

The study explored converting Gracilaria seaweed waste—known for releasing toxic hydrogen sulfide when decomposed—into biochar as a sustainable solution for waste management and soil improvement.
