Coxsackievirus infection induces direct pancreatic β-cell killing but poor anti-viral CD8+ T-cell responses

This study shows that Coxsackievirus B directly kills pancreatic β-cells and elicits weak CD8+ T-cell responses, suggesting vaccination could prevent type 1 diabetes.

Rethinking glottal midline detection

This study evaluates methods for automatic glottal midline detection using simulations and endoscopic images, finding deep neural networks outperform classical computer vision methods.

Increasing growth temperature alters the within-host competition of viral strains and influences virus genetic variation

This study shows that temperature affects virus-virus interactions and genetic variation in mixed viral infections in tomato plants.

Spatial heterogeneity of an ecologically relevant environment accelerates diversification and adaptation.

The paper shows that spatial heterogeneity in soil compost promotes phenotypic diversification and accelerates adaptation in Pseudomonas fluorescens.

Forest canopy, a proxi of light intensity, arrests Pinus radiata invasion: basic science to conserve the Coastal Maulino forest, Central Chile.

The study finds that canopy cover reduces Pinus radiata seedling density in Coastal Maulino forest fragments, suggesting canopy preservation is key to conserving native biodiversity.
