Microenvironment shapes small-cell lung cancer neuroendocrine states and presents therapeutic opportunities

This study maps the SCLC tumor microenvironment and identifies cancer-associated fibroblasts as key drivers of neuroendocrine state plasticity and poor prognosis.

ATR inhibition augments the efficacy of lurbinectedin in small cell lung cancer

This study shows that combining ATR inhibition with lurbinectedin improves efficacy in SCLC, particularly in MYC-driven non-neuroendocrine tumors.

Female fruit flies cannot protect stored sperm from high temperature damage

This study shows female fruit flies cannot protect stored sperm from high temperatures, with Drosophila virilis sperm being more vulnerable than Zaprionus indianus sperm.

Termites have developed wider thermal limits to cope with environmental conditions in savannas

This study shows that savanna termites have broader thermal limits than forest termites, likely due to adaptation to extreme savanna environmental conditions.

Quantifying multivariate genotype-by-environment interactions, evolutionary potential and its context-dependence in natural populations of the water flea, Daphnia magna.

The paper quantifies multivariate genotype-by-environment interactions in Daphnia magna and finds context-dependent evolutionary potential for food vs. temperature responses.

"Select and retrieve via direct upsampling" network (SARDU-Net): a data-driven, model-free, deep learning approach for quantitative MRI protocol design

SARDU-Net is a deep learning framework for designing quantitative MRI protocols by selecting informative measurements from pilot scans, achieving high information content and reproducibility.
