3 Spices Scientifically Proven to Boost Metabolism

A recent review of 142 studies showed that some commonly used spices can boost our metabolism. And the good news is that you only need a teaspoon here and a tablespoon there to reap the benefits, says mindbodygreen. This trio of spices has also been shown to reduce… Read Full Article (External Site) Dr. David […]

Factorized discriminant analysis for genetic signatures of neuronal phenotypes

Navigating the complex landscape of single-cell transcriptomic data presents significant challenges. Central to this challenge is the identification of a meaningful representation of high-dimensional gene expression patterns that sheds light on the structural and functional properties of cell types. Pursuing model interpretability and computational simplicity, we often look for a linear transformation of the original […]

A modelling study to dissect the potential role of voltage-gated ion channels in activity-dependent conduction velocity changes as identified in small fiber neuropathy patients

ObjectivePatients with small fiber neuropathy (SFN) suffer from neuropathic pain, which is still a therapeutic problem. Changed activation patterns of mechano-insensitive peripheral nerve fibers (CMi) could cause neuropathic pain. However, there is sparse knowledge about mechanisms leading to CMi dysfunction since it is difficult to dissect specific molecular mechanisms in humans. We used an in-silico […]
