Summary: Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used in scientific discovery, providing assistance in hypothesis generation, experimental design, data analysis, and insight generation. Recent breakthroughs include self-supervised learning and geometric deep learning, which enhance model accuracy and efficiency. Generative AI methods can generate diverse designs through analysis of various data modalities. Despite progress, challenges such as data quality and stewardship remain, making it critical to develop foundational algorithmic approaches for AI innovation.

Summary: This article argues that libraries need to go beyond current proposals and experiments to narrow the gap in applying machine learning to enhance discoverability for library materials. To address this, libraries and ML researchers should work together to develop interfaces that allow users to explore collections through machine learning, while educating them about the ML processes and biases.

Summary: Stroke is a major cause of disability, and predicting post-stroke recovery is challenging. Neuroimaging-based biomarkers, particularly those measuring structural and functional connectivity of the brain, have shown potential in predicting motor recovery after stroke. This review explores the use of functional neural network connectivity measurements obtained from various imaging techniques in describing and predicting post-stroke behavioral status and recovery. The authors argue for the importance of implementing a causal inference framework in stroke research to move from association to causation.

Summary: Adrenocortical cancer (ACC) is a rare malignancy with poor prognosis and limited treatment options. Surgery is the only curative option, but many patients present with advanced disease or experience recurrence. Despite advancements in understanding the molecular background of ACC, there is still a lack of effective systemic therapies, with mitotane remaining the mainstay of treatment. New treatment strategies have not led to significant clinical benefit, highlighting the need for further research to improve therapeutic options for ACC.

Summary: Tremor is considered to be an effect of oscillatory activity in the sensorimotor network, but the underlying pathological brain networks are not fully understood. This study aimed to disentangle the sensorimotor system into driving and feedback/compensatory involvement, and investigate tremor activity in ET and tremor-dominant PD using a closed-loop approach. The results showed similar activation patterns in the motor and sensory networks for ET patients and healthy controls, while PD patients had less activity during active motor tasks. These findings contribute to a better understanding of tremor pathophysiology.

Summary: This article introduces a new measure of conditional dependence called the local Gaussian partial correlation (LGPC). Compared to traditional partial correlation coefficients, LGPC can better describe conditional dependence in a wide range of populations and has some useful and novel properties. LGPC can also be used to study departures from conditional independence in specific parts of the distribution.

Summary: The neurophysiological analysis of cooperation has evolved over the past 20 years towards studying common patterns in neurophysiological signals during interactions. Social Physiological Compliance (SPC) and hyperscanning are two frameworks that analyze autonomic and brain signals, providing information on emotions and cognitive aspects respectively. This study explores the possibility of unifying these two approaches to create a comprehensive neurophysiological model for cooperation, taking into account affective and cognitive mechanisms. Results show a statistically significant causality between variables representing individuals in a dyad only when they cooperate, and the strength of this relationship correlates with the dyad's performance.

Summary: Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disease with significant social and economic impact. Current treatments focus on managing symptoms, and there is a need for disease-modifying therapies. Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is an effective treatment, but current systems have limitations. Machine learning (ML) methods are being explored to identify biomarkers and develop personalized DBS control systems, promising more efficient and tailored treatments.

Summary: Digital data is a fundamental research product, but the concept of data credit, which represents the importance of cited data, is still not well understood. This paper explores the problem of distributing credit to database parts responsible for producing data cited by a research entity. The authors use the IUPHAR/BPS Guide to Pharmacology as a case study and define three distribution strategies based on how-provenance, responsibility, and the Shapley value. The paper demonstrates how credit can serve as a bibliometric measure for data and their curators, highlighting frequently-used database areas and rewarding research impact.

Summary: Pectin stabilized emulgel was prepared using an emulsion guided approach. The properties of the emulgel strongly depended on the properties of the emulsion, which were influenced by the emulsifier (gelator). The study investigated the fabrication of emulsion using pectin isolated from passion fruit rind and observed the changes in structural and rheological features during the transformation from emulsion to emulgel. The results showed that passion fruit rind pectin exhibited excellent emulsifying capacity and the concentration of pectin and the proportion of oil phase had a direct and inverse effect, respectively, on the physical stability of the emulsion. The study also revealed the increase in yield stress, yield strain, and elastic modulus upon converting the emulsion to emulgel, as well as the formation of droplet aggregate and droplet entrapment in the biopolymer matrix.
