Semi-supervised network inference using simulated gene expression dynamics.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)

Nguyen P, Braun R.
PMID: 29186340
Bioinformatics. 2018 Apr 01;34(7):1148-1156. doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/btx748.

MOTIVATION: Inferring the structure of gene regulatory networks from high-throughput datasets remains an important and unsolved problem. Current methods are hampered by problems such as noise, low sample size, and incomplete characterizations of regulatory dynamics, leading to networks with...

Calculating Competitive Intransitivity: Computational Challenges.

The American naturalist

Laird RA, Schamp BS.
PMID: 29570401
Am Nat. 2018 Apr;191(4):547-552. doi: 10.1086/696266. Epub 2018 Feb 16.

Intransitive (or "rock-paper-scissors") competition is compelling because it promotes species coexistence and because recent work suggests that it may be common in natural systems. One class of intransitivity indices works by considering s, the minimum number of competitive reversals...

Using agent-based modeling to study multiple risk factors and multiple health outcomes at multiple levels.

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences

Yang Y.
PMID: 29239482
Ann N Y Acad Sci. 2017 Nov;1408(1):7-14. doi: 10.1111/nyas.13558.

Most health studies focus on one health outcome and examine the influence of one or multiple risk factors. However, in reality, various pathways, interactions, and associations exist not only between risk factors and health outcomes but also among the...

Cell autonomous sanctions in legumes target ineffective rhizobia in nodules with mixed infections.

American journal of botany

Regus JU, Quides KW, O'Neill MR, Suzuki R, Savory EA, Chang JH, Sachs JL.
PMID: 29885243
Am J Bot. 2017 Sep;104(9):1299-1312. doi: 10.3732/ajb.1700165.

PREMISE OF THE STUDY: To maximize benefits from symbiosis, legumes must limit physiological inputs into ineffective rhizobia that nodulate hosts without fixing nitrogen. The capacity of legumes to decrease the relative fitness of ineffective rhizobia-known as sanctions-has been demonstrated...

Invasion waves in the biochemical warfare between living organisms.

Physical review. E

Carvalho SA, Martins ML.
PMID: 29758635
Phys Rev E. 2018 Apr;97(4):042403. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.97.042403.

Microorganisms and plants very commonly release toxic secondary chemical compounds (allelochemicals) that inhibit or kill sensitive strains or individuals from their own or other species. In this work we study a model that describes two species interacting through allelopathic...

Importance of Recalibrating Models for Type 2 Diabetes Onset Prediction: Application of the Diabetes Population Risk Tool on the Health and Retirement Study.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference

Vettoretti M, Longato E, Camillo BD, Facchinetti A.
PMID: 30441547
Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc. 2018 Jul;2018:5358-5361. doi: 10.1109/EMBC.2018.8513554.

A timely prediction of type 2 diabetes (T2D) onset is important for early intervention to prevent, or at least postpone, its incidence. Several models to predict T2D onset according to individual risk factors were proposed. However, their practical applicability...

Issues in data expansion in understanding criticality in biological systems.

The European physical journal. E, Soft matter

Wasnik V.
PMID: 29380087
Eur Phys J E Soft Matter. 2018 Jan 31;41(1):13. doi: 10.1140/epje/i2018-11621-0.

At the point of a second-order phase transition also termed as a critical point, systems display long-range order and their macroscopic behaviors are independent of the microscopic details making up the system. Due to these properties, it has long...

Undulations Drive Domain Registration from the Two Membrane Leaflets.

Biophysical journal

Galimzyanov TR, Kuzmin PI, Pohl P, Akimov SA.
PMID: 28122219
Biophys J. 2017 Jan 24;112(2):339-345. doi: 10.1016/j.bpj.2016.12.023.

Phase separation in biological membranes plays an important role in protein targeting and transmembrane signaling. Its occurrence in both membrane leaflets commonly gives rise to matching liquid or liquid-ordered domains in the opposing monolayers. The underlying mechanism of such...

Modelling the effects of global climate change on Chikungunya transmission in the 21.

Scientific reports

Tjaden NB, Suk JE, Fischer D, Thomas SM, Beierkuhnlein C, Semenza JC.
PMID: 28630444
Sci Rep. 2017 Jun 19;7(1):3813. doi: 10.1038/s41598-017-03566-3.

The arrival and rapid spread of the mosquito-borne viral disease Chikungunya across the Americas is one of the most significant public health developments of recent years, preceding and mirroring the subsequent spread of Zika. Globalization in trade and travel...

Structural and practical identifiability analysis of S-system.

IET systems biology

Zhan C, Li BY, Yeung LF.
PMID: 26577163
IET Syst Biol. 2015 Dec;9(6):285-93. doi: 10.1049/iet-syb.2015.0014.

In the field of systems biology, biological reaction networks are usually modelled by ordinary differential equations. A sub-class, the S-systems representation, is a widely used form of modelling. Existing S-systems identification techniques assume that the system itself is always...

Outstanding Challenges in the Transferability of Ecological Models.

Trends in ecology & evolution

Yates KL, Bouchet PJ, Caley MJ, Mengersen K, Randin CF, Parnell S, Fielding AH, Bamford AJ, Ban S, Barbosa AM, Dormann CF, Elith J, Embling CB, Ervin GN, Fisher R, Gould S, Graf RF, Gregr EJ, Halpin PN, Heikkinen RK, Heinänen S, Jones AR, Krishnakumar PK, Lauria V, Lozano-Montes H, Mannocci L, Mellin C, Mesgaran MB, Moreno-Amat E, Mormede S, Novaczek E, Oppel S, Ortuño Crespo G, Peterson AT, Rapacciuolo G, Roberts JJ, Ross RE, Scales KL, Schoeman D, Snelgrove P, Sundblad G, Thuiller W, Torres LG, Verbruggen H, Wang L, Wenger S, Whittingham MJ, Zharikov Y, Zurell D, Sequeira AMM.

Predictive models are central to many scientific disciplines and vital for informing management in a rapidly changing world. However, limited understanding of the accuracy and precision of models transferred to novel conditions (their 'transferability') undermines confidence in their predictions....
