The organization of the human cerebral cortex estimated by intrinsic functional connectivity
Information processing in the cerebral cortex involves interactions among distributed areas. Anatomical connectivity suggests that certain areas form local hierarchical relation...
Global Biodiversity Scenarios for the Year 2100
Scenarios of changes in biodiversity for the year 2100 can now be developed based on scenarios of changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide, climate, vegetation, and land use and th...
Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics—2020 Update: A Report From the American Heart Association
Background: The American Heart Association, in conjunction with the National Institutes of Health, annually reports on the most up-to-date statistics related to heart disease, s...

MultiQC: summarize analysis results for multiple tools and samples in a single report
Abstract Motivation: Fast and accurate quality control is essential for studies involving next-generation sequencing data. Whilst numerous tools exist to quantify QC metrics, th...
Human papillomavirus is a necessary cause of invasive cervical cancer worldwide
A recent report that 93 per cent of invasive cervical cancers worldwide contain human papillomavirus (HPV) may be an underestimate, due to sample inadequacy or integration event...
Improved tangent estimate in the nudged elastic band method for finding minimum energy paths and saddle points
An improved way of estimating the local tangent in the nudged elastic band method for finding minimum energy paths is presented. In systems where the force along the minimum ene...
The capsaicin receptor: a heat-activated ion channel in the pain pathway
Capsaicin, the main pungent ingredient in 'hot' chilli peppers, elicits a sensation of burning pain by selectively activating sensory neurons that convey information about noxio...
The Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications, Version 2 (MERRA-2)
The Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications, version 2 (MERRA-2), is the latest atmospheric reanalysis of the modern satellite era produced by NASA’s Glo...
Analysis of Gene Diversity in Subdivided Populations
A method is presented by which the gene diversity (heterozygosity) of a subdivided population can be analyzed into its components, i.e., the gene diversities within and between ...
