BAM: A Block-Based Bayesian Method for Detecting Genome-Wide Associations with Multiple Diseases

Description: Article proposes a novel Bayesian method, named BAM, for simultaneously partitioning Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) into Linkage Disequilibrium(LD)-blocks and detecting genome-wide multi-locus epistatic interactions that are associated with multiple diseases. Experimental results on the simulated datasets demonstrate that BAM is powerful and efficient.

Can a simple topological-constraints-based model predict the initial dissolution rate of borosilicate and aluminosilicate glasses?

Description: This article, as an alternative route to empirical models, shows that a structural descriptor based on the number of topological constraints per atom can be used to predict the initial dissolution rate of aluminosilicate and borosilicate glasses after being parameterized on different families of glasses (specific series of borosilicate glasses). Results show that, provided that corrections are made for high alkali content glasses that dissolve incongruently (preferential release of Na), the mod… more

Friction stir welding of SS 316 LN and Nitronic 50 jacket sections for application in superconducting fusion magnet systems

Description: Article explores the possibility of using friction stir welding (FSW) to join jacket web sections of two nitrogen-containing stainless steels for housing internally cooled superconducting cables which are utilized to generate magnetic fields in tokamak type fusion reactor systems. It has been shown that the FSW fabricated SS 316 LN jackets possessed the required strength and magnetic properties critical to this application.

Hedgehog signaling is involved in acquired resistance to KRASG12C inhibitors in lung cancer cells

Description: Article states that although KRASG12C inhibitors have shown promising activity in lung adenocarcinomas harboring KRASG12C, acquired resistance to these therapies eventually occurs in most patients. The authors report that the hedgehog signal is induced by KRASG12C inhibitors and mediates KRAS re-expression in cancer cells treated with a KRASG12C inhibitor.
