Mutations of SWI/SNF components and the small ribosomal subunit Rps2 result in elevated noise. by Shu-Ting You (140787)

“…(C) Deleting <i>SNF6</i> in the ancestral background results in increased noise (one-sided Wilcoxon rank-sum test, <i>n</i> = 5; <i>p</i> = 0.0087). Haploid <i>snf6</i>Δ mutants exhibit defective respiration, so we used a haploid rho- ancestral strain in this experiment, and cells were grown in YPD medium. …”

The stabilising effect of presynaptic inhibition is robust to details of the transfer function. by Laura Bella Naumann (9221252)

“…<p>We qualitatively recover the results obtained for linear transfer functions if the release probability decreases exponentially or as a sigmoid with increasing inhibitory rate. …”

Assessing the Causal Role of Walking Pace and Hand Grip Strength with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Hospital: A Mendelian Randomization Study by Lu Wang (45927)

“…</p> <p>Our research shows a link between slower walking pace and higher COPD hospitalization risk, as well as decreased lung function (PEF, FEV1, FVC). We also found a significant correlation between weaker hand grip and reduced lung function, especially FVC. …”
