Here, we show that specific but promiscuous short-range binding interactions make it possible to economically assemble linear filaments of user-defined length. Our approach leads to independent control over the mean and width of the filament size distribution and allows us to smoothly explore design trade-offs between assembly quality (spread in size) and cost (number of particle species). We employ a simple hierarchical assembly protocol to minimize assembly times and show that multiple stages of hierarchy make it possible to extend our approach to the assembly of higher-dimensional structures. Our work provides a conceptually simple solution to size control that is applicable to a broad range of systems, from DNA nanoparticles to supramolecular polymers and beyond."}],"publication_status":"published","article_processing_charge":"Yes","OA_type":"gold","DOAJ_listed":"1","article_type":"original","doi":"10.1103/68rs-3qgn","date_updated":"2026-03-23T15:59:11Z","date_published":"2026-03-05T00:00:00Z","month":"03","file":[{"file_name":"2026_PhysicalReviewResearch_Huebl.pdf","access_level":"open_access","success":1,"content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"21493","relation":"main_file","date_updated":"2026-03-23T15:53:29Z","creator":"dernst","file_size":2680924,"checksum":"6d8a68e4a19f8dad5abdf75f72316f3d","date_created":"2026-03-23T15:53:29Z"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"citation":{"short":"M.

Here we show that adventitious carbonaceous molecules adsorbed from the environment are the symmetry-breaking factor in same-material oxide contact electrification (CE). We use acoustic levitation to measure charge exchange between a sphere and a plate composed of identical amorphous silicon dioxide (SiO2). Although charging polarity is random for co-prepared samples, we control it with baking or plasma treatment. Observing the charge-exchange relaxation afterwards, we see dynamics over a timescale of hours and connect this directly to the presence of adventitious carbon with time-of-flight mass spectrometry, low-energy ion scattering and infrared spectroscopy. Going further, we confirm that adventitious carbon can even determine charge exchange among different oxides. Our results identify the symmetry-breaking parameter that causes insulating oxides to exchange charge in settings ranging from desert sands4 to volcanic plumes5,6, while simultaneously highlighting an overlooked factor in CE more broadly."}],"article_processing_charge":"Yes (via OA deal)","OA_type":"hybrid","publisher":"Springer Nature","external_id":{"pmid":["41851325"]},"PlanS_conform":"1","issue":"8106","title":"Adventitious carbon breaks symmetry in oxide contact electrification","project":[{"_id":"0aa60e99-070f-11eb-9043-a6de6bdc3afa","grant_number":"949120","name":"Tribocharge: a multi-scale approach to an enduring problem in physics","call_identifier":"H2020"},{"grant_number":"754411","name":"ISTplus - Postdoctoral Fellowships","call_identifier":"H2020","_id":"260C2330-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425"}],"date_created":"2026-03-23T15:04:00Z","quality_controlled":"1","author":[{"full_name":"Grosjean, Galien M","last_name":"Grosjean","first_name":"Galien M","orcid":"0000-0001-5154-417X","id":"0C5FDA4A-9CF6-11E9-8939-FF05E6697425"},{"first_name":"Markus","last_name":"Ostermann","full_name":"Ostermann, Markus"},{"first_name":"Markus","last_name":"Sauer","full_name":"Sauer, Markus"},{"first_name":"Michael","last_name":"Hahn","full_name":"Hahn, Michael"},{"first_name":"Christian M.","last_name":"Pichler","full_name":"Pichler, Christian M."},{"last_name":"Fahrnberger","full_name":"Fahrnberger, Florian","first_name":"Florian"},{"first_name":"Felix","last_name":"Pertl","full_name":"Pertl, Felix","orcid":"0000-0003-0463-5794","id":"6313aec0-15b2-11ec-abd3-ed67d16139af"},{"last_name":"Balazs","full_name":"Balazs, Daniel","first_name":"Daniel","id":"302BADF6-85FC-11EA-9E3B-B9493DDC885E","orcid":"0000-0001-7597-043X"},{"first_name":"Mason M.","last_name":"Link","full_name":"Link, Mason M."},{"first_name":"Seong H.","full_name":"Kim, Seong H.","last_name":"Kim"},{"first_name":"Devin L.","last_name":"Schrader","full_name":"Schrader, Devin L."},{"last_name":"Blanco","full_name":"Blanco, Adriana","first_name":"Adriana"},{"full_name":"Gracia, Francisco","last_name":"Gracia","first_name":"Francisco"},{"full_name":"Mujica, Nicolás","last_name":"Mujica","first_name":"Nicolás"},{"id":"3A1FFC16-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0002-2299-3176","first_name":"Scott R","last_name":"Waitukaitis","full_name":"Waitukaitis, Scott R"}],"acknowledgement":"This project has received support from the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (grant agreement no. 949120) and from the Marie Skłodowska-Curie programme (grant agreement no. 754411).

While Bitcoin,\r\nbased on Proof-of-Work (PoW), was the first protocol in this model, significant\r\nresearch has focused on permissionless protocols using alternative physical resources,\r\nspecifically Proof-of-Space (PoSpace) and Verifiable Delay Functions (VDFs). This\r\nthesis investigates the theoretical limits and design space of longest-chain protocols in\r\nthe fully permissionless and dynamically available settings using these three resources.\r\nFirst, we address the feasibility of blockchains relying solely on storage as a resource.\r\nWe prove a fundamental impossibility result: there exists no secure longest-chain\r\nprotocol based exclusively on Proof-of-Space in the fully permissionless or dynamically\r\navailable settings. Further, we quantify the adversarial capabilities required to execute\r\na double-spend attack. Our result formally justifies the necessity of coupling PoSpace\r\nwith time-dependent primitives (such as VDFs) or to move to less permissive settings\r\n(quasi-permissionless or permissioned) to ensure security.\r\nSecond, we generalize Nakamoto-like heaviest chain consensus to protocols utilizing\r\ncombinations of multiple physical resources. We analyze chain selection rules governed\r\nby a weight function Γ(S, V,W), which assigns weight to blocks based on recorded\r\nSpace (S), VDF speed (V ), and Work (W). We provide a complete classification\r\nof secure weight functions, proving that a weight function is secure against private\r\ndouble-spend attacks if and only if it is homogeneous in the timed resources (V,W)\r\nand sub-homogeneous in S. This framework unifies existing protocols like Bitcoin and\r\nChia under a single theoretical model and provides a powerful tool for designing new\r\nlongest-chain blockchains from a mix of physical resources.","lang":"eng"}],"article_processing_charge":"No","doi":"10.15479/AT-ISTA-21651","supervisor":[{"orcid":"0000-0002-9139-1654","id":"3E04A7AA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Pietrzak, Krzysztof Z","last_name":"Pietrzak","first_name":"Krzysztof Z"}],"date_updated":"2026-04-15T08:45:19Z","file":[{"file_name":"PhD-Thesis-Mirza-Ahad-Baig - Library Submission.zip","content_type":"application/x-zip-compressed","file_id":"21655","relation":"source_file","file_size":139353434,"creator":"mbaig","date_updated":"2026-04-13T08:24:13Z","date_created":"2026-04-03T17:28:48Z","checksum":"c3986dba90653dac97adba662ebff238","access_level":"closed"},{"file_name":"2026_Baig_Mirza_Ahad_Thesis.pdf","access_level":"open_access","checksum":"292a5989262521f7c145a109d1f348cb","date_created":"2026-04-03T17:29:30Z","file_size":1942037,"date_updated":"2026-04-15T07:37:25Z","creator":"mbaig","file_id":"21656","relation":"main_file","content_type":"application/pdf"}],"date_published":"2026-03-04T00:00:00Z","month":"03","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by_nc_sa.png","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/legalcode","name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0)","short":"CC BY-NC-SA (4.0)"},"citation":{"short":"M.A. Baig, On Secure Chain Selection Rules from Physical Resources in a Permissionless Setting, Institute of Science and Technology Austria, 2026.","apa":"Baig, M.

How neuronal left-right asymmetry is initiated and integrated into a bilaterally symmetrical ground pattern is poorly understood. Here, we show that the directional asymmetry of a Drosophila central brain circuit originates from axonal interactions of two types of bilateral pioneer neurons. Subsequent recruitment of neighboring neurons into the asymmetric neuropil primordium results in hemisphere-specific microcircuits. Circuit lateralization requires dynamic expression of the cell adhesion molecule Fasciclin 2 to maintain structural plasticity in axonal remodeling. Reduced circuit asymmetry following cell type–specific Fasciclin 2 manipulation affects adult brain function. These results reveal an unexpected degree of developmental plasticity of late-born Drosophila neurons in the formation of a circuit node via the lateralized recruitment of symmetric circuit components.","lang":"eng"}],"publication_status":"published","OA_type":"gold","article_processing_charge":"Yes","DOAJ_listed":"1","article_type":"original","doi":"10.1126/sciadv.aea6020"},{"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"day":"14","citation":{"apa":"Asadi, A., Chatterjee, K., Goharshady, E., Karrabi, M., &#38; Shafiee, A.

An objective is a set of runs (or infinite trajectories) of the RMDP, and the value for an objective is the maximal probability that the agent can guarantee against the adversarial environment. We consider (a) reachability objectives, where given a target set of states, the goal is to eventually arrive at one of them; and (b) parity objectives, which are a canonical representation for ω-regular objectives. The qualitative analysis problem asks whether the objective can be ensured with probability 1. In this work, we study the qualitative problem for reachability and parity objectives on RMDPs without making any assumption over the structures of the RMDPs, e.g., unichain or aperiodic. Our contributions are twofold. We first present efficient algorithms with oracle access to uncertainty sets that solve qualitative problems of reachability and parity objectives. We then report experimental results demonstrating the effectiveness of our oracle-based approach on classical RMDP examples from the literature scaling up to thousands of states.","lang":"eng"}],"year":"2026","OA_type":"green","article_processing_charge":"No","conference":{"name":"AAAI: Conference on Artificial Intelligence","end_date":"2026-01-27","start_date":"2026-01-20","location":"Singapore, Singapore"},"publisher":"Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence","arxiv":1,"external_id":{"arxiv":["2505.04539"]},"title":"Qualitative analysis of ω-regular objectives on robust MDPs","issue":"43","project":[{"_id":"0599E47C-7A3F-11EA-A408-12923DDC885E","call_identifier":"H2020","grant_number":"863818","name":"Formal Methods for Stochastic Models: Algorithms and Applications"}],"date_created":"2026-04-12T22:01:50Z","OA_place":"repository","author":[{"first_name":"Ali","last_name":"Asadi","full_name":"Asadi, Ali","id":"02d96aae-000e-11ec-b801-cadd0a5eefbb"},{"id":"2E5DCA20-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0002-4561-241X","last_name":"Chatterjee","full_name":"Chatterjee, Krishnendu","first_name":"Krishnendu"},{"last_name":"Kafshdar Goharshadi","full_name":"Kafshdar Goharshadi, Ehsan","first_name":"Ehsan","id":"103b4fa0-896a-11ed-bdf8-87b697bef40d","orcid":"0000-0002-8595-0587"},{"first_name":"Mehrdad","full_name":"Karrabi, Mehrdad","last_name":"Karrabi","orcid":"0009-0007-5253-9170","id":"67638922-f394-11eb-9cf6-f20423e08757"},{"id":"2783031a-7378-11f0-b2d0-f17f1db2ebad","last_name":"Shafiee","full_name":"Shafiee, Ali","first_name":"Ali"}],"acknowledgement":"This work was supported by ERC CoG 863818 (ForMSMArt) and Austrian Science Fund (FWF) 10.55776/COE12.

In this study, we developed a method of live imaging of apoplastic ROS at the root surface. Distinct signals, including auxin, extracellular adenosine triphosphate, and rapid alkalinization factor 1 peptide, induce cytosolic calcium transients and apoplastic ROS bursts. Genetic and optogenetic manipulations of Arabidopsis identified calcium transients as necessary and sufficient for ROS bursts through activation of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidases RBOHC and RBOHF. Apoplastic ROS bursts are not required, but they do limit gravity-induced root bending. Root bending is sensed by the stretch-activated calcium channel MCA1, leading to NADPH oxidase activation. The resulting ROS production stiffens cell walls to facilitate soil penetration. Apoplastic ROS thus provides a means to balance tissue flexibility and stiffness to navigate soil.","lang":"eng"}],"OA_type":"green","article_processing_charge":"No","article_type":"original","doi":"10.1126/science.adu8197","date_updated":"2026-05-07T06:20:07Z","file":[{"success":1,"content_type":"application/pdf","relation":"main_file","file_id":"21832","file_size":6150733,"creator":"dernst","date_updated":"2026-05-07T05:54:43Z","checksum":"eb5b29247832ecdc53c8146da0509bbe","date_created":"2026-05-07T05:54:43Z","access_level":"open_access","file_name":"2026_Science_Kulich_accepted.pdf"}],"date_published":"2026-04-16T00:00:00Z","month":"04","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"citation":{"short":"I.

We demonstrate that the dispersion relation ω(k), obtained from dynamical density functional theory for the uniform density system, is a highly versatile tool for predicting where in the phase diagram complex crystals form. The sign of ω(k) determines whether density modes with wave number k grow or decay over time. We demonstrate the predictive power by investigating the complex phase behavior of particles interacting via core-shoulder pair potentials. With complementary Monte Carlo simulations, we show that regions of the phase diagram where ωðkÞ has one or several unstable (growing) wave numbers are also where crystalline phases occur. Going further, by tuning these\r\nunstable wave numbers via the interaction-potential and state-point parameters, we design systems with quasicrystals in the phase diagram. We identify a system with a certain shoulder range exhibiting at least ten different phases. Our general approach accelerates considerably the mapping of complex phase diagrams, crucial for the design of new materials.","lang":"eng"}],"year":"2026","publication_status":"published","doi":"10.1103/nbvt-fgjy","article_type":"original","oa":1,"OA_place":"publisher","author":[{"last_name":"Wassermair","full_name":"Wassermair, Michael","first_name":"Michael","orcid":"0009-0003-6339-4051","id":"23d132c4-4e98-11ef-b275-9e8d4cd8c917"},{"last_name":"Kahl","full_name":"Kahl, Gerhard","first_name":"Gerhard"},{"first_name":"Roland","full_name":"Roth, Roland","last_name":"Roth"},{"full_name":"Archer, Andrew J.","last_name":"Archer","first_name":"Andrew J."}],"quality_controlled":"1","acknowledgement":"The authors thank Ms. Katrin Muck for her guidance related to the use of HPC.

One potential pairing mechanism, invoked in the related re-entrant superconductors UCoGe and URhGe, involves transverse fluctuations of a ferromagnetic order parameter. However, the requisite ferromagnetic order—present in both UCoGe and URhGe—is absent in UTe2, and neutron scattering shows instead that the magnetic susceptibility is peaked at an antiferromagnetic wavevector. Here, we measure the magnetotropic susceptibility of UTe2 across two field-angle planes. This quantity is sensitive to the magnetic susceptibility in a direction transverse to the applied magnetic field—a quantity that is not accessed in conventional magnetization measurements. We observe a very large decrease in the magnetotropic susceptibility over a broad range of field orientations, indicating a large increase in the transverse magnetic susceptibility. Because our technique probes the magnetic susceptibility in the long wavelength (q = 0) limit, this suggests that the strong transverse susceptibility arises from ferromagnetic spin fluctuations. These ferromagnetic fluctuations are likely important for understanding the pairing mechanism in UTe2, as all three superconducting phases of UTe2 surround this region of enhanced susceptibility in the field-angle phase diagram.","lang":"eng"}],"article_type":"original","doi":"10.1038/s41467-026-71899-7","DOAJ_listed":"1","file":[{"file_name":"2026_NatureComm_Zambra.pdf","creator":"dernst","file_size":1784917,"date_updated":"2026-05-11T06:32:12Z","date_created":"2026-05-11T06:32:12Z","checksum":"8cb95b033ad2a1a7a8181f6f078c05b5","content_type":"application/pdf","success":1,"file_id":"21850","relation":"main_file","access_level":"open_access"}],"date_published":"2026-04-29T00:00:00Z","month":"04","date_updated":"2026-05-11T06:36:00Z","article_number":"3742","tmp":{"short":"CC BY (4.0)","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode"},"citation":{"short":"V.

The former, the building block of matter, something we learn about in school and imagine it as some tiny marbles encircled by other tinier marbles. The latter, an electromagnetic wave, a light particle or an excitation of the electromagnetic field. Quantum mechanics tells us about the properties of these two entities. And even if it sounds, looks and writes counter-intuitive, it has proven right for over a century now.\r\n\r\nIn this work, I elaborate on how we tested the laws of quantum mechanics and how we used them learn more about the tiny building blocks of nature and the fields they use to talk to each other. The atoms we use, are artificial. Superconducting qubits, small electrical circuits with quantized energy levels behave like electrons that transition between different orbitals in an atom. One of the qubits' advantages, is also a big disadvantage. We design the circuits' energy levels and fabricate them in a cleanroom. This allows for arbitrary spaced energy levels but in contrast to real atoms, prevents two superconducting qubits from being alike. Still, this qubit platform is one of the frontrunners for future quantum computing technology and testing fundamental physics due to their scalability.\r\n\r\nWe interface superconducting qubits, which operate in the GHz regime, with microwave photons. We use 3D aluminum cavities as mediators between qubits and photons. The cavities allow for non-destructive readout of the qubit state, they shield the qubits from noise at the qubit frequency and they give us an easy way to frequency-tune these joint systems.\r\n\r\nWe need to operate superconducting qubits and their cavities at millikelvin temperatures in dilution refrigerators. At higher temperatures, superconductivity suffers and even worse, the environment is filled with thermal noise photons. This poses a fundamental limitation on the scalability of superconducting qubit devices. Also connecting multiple devices in different fridges does not work over room temperature links because the microwave photons used for this purpose will be covered in noise and the quantum information they carry, will be unusable.\r\n\r\nInfrared photons do not suffer from this noise problem since there are close to zero thermal noise photons at their frequencies at room temperature. We cannot simply interface superconducting devices with optical photons due their frequency mismatch and the destructive effect of optical photons on superconductors. Therefore, we use microwave-to-optics transducers that allow to convert microwave photons into optical ones and vice-versa. The transducers that we use are macroscopic electro-optic transducers using the Pockels effect in a disk-shaped Lithium Niobate whispering gallery mode resonator. By using a strong optical pump, photons from the two frequency domains experience a beam-splitter interaction and get converted from one to the other.\r\n\r\nWe measure the generated optical photons using elaborate optical setups, optical heterodyning and single photon detectors to gain knowledge about the qubit state or the converted microwave photons. Bridging the microwave and the optical world allows us to take advantage of both of their strengths but it also requires deep knowledge about both of their working principles.\r\n\r\nIn this work, we describe two experiments that our group conducted to showcase the opportunities that arise from interfacing superconducting qubits with optical photons but also the pitfalls, one may encounter on the way.\r\n\r\nIn the first experiment, we managed to all-optically read out a superconducting qubit. We show that the assignment fidelity, the probability that a measurement of the qubit state matches the prepared state, is close to equal for all-optical, microwave-to-optics and conventional microwave readout. We show T1 and T2 measurements for all three readout types and give an analysis of the noise caused by the optics. Finally, we show that the infrared light does not affect the qubit performance in a negative way but that the heating it causes does. This is an important insight that we used in the next experiment.\r\n\r\nThe second experiment is the upconversion of itinerant single microwave photons to the optical domain. We show that we can generate single microwave photons from a qubit-cavity system. We upconvert these single photons, measure them with a single photon detector and reconstruct their shape. By conducting a single photon Rabi measurement, we show correlations between the microwave and the optical domain. And by thorough signal-to-noise measurements and noise analysis, we find that we can generate single infrared photons with high signal-to-noise ratio 5.1 and low transducer added noise (<0.012 quanta). We show that this measurement creates a path towards entanglement of a superconducting qubit and an optical photon and what parameters need to be improved to achieve it. Additionally, this experiment is a proof of principle for an on-demand infrared single photon source. More generally, it allows to link microwave quantum technology in general to the optical domain.","lang":"eng"}],"title":"Interfacing superconducting qubits with optical photons","publisher":"Institute of Science and Technology Austria","author":[{"last_name":"Werner","full_name":"Werner, Thomas","first_name":"Thomas","orcid":"0009-0001-2346-5236","id":"1fcd8497-dba3-11ea-a45e-c6fbd715f7c7"}],"acknowledgement":"The author of this work was supported by the European Research Council under grant no.\r\n101089099 (ERC CoG cQEO) and the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation\r\nprogram under grant no. 899354 (FETopen SuperQuLAN).\r\nThis work was also supported by the European Research Council under grant nos. 758053\r\n(ERC StG QUNNECT), 101248662 (ERC POC CoupledEOT), and the European Innovation\r\nCouncil no. 101187231 (PathfinderOpen CIELO).

This exponential complexity naïvely renders a complete state characterization, for instance via the complete set of bipartite Renyi entropies for all disjoint regions, a challenging task. Recently, a compact way of storing subregions' purities by encoding them as amplitudes of a fictitious quantum wave function, known as entanglement feature, was proposed. Notably, the entanglement feature can be a simple object even for highly entangled quantum states. However the complexity and practical usage of the entanglement feature for general quantum states has not been explored. In this work, we demonstrate that the entanglement feature can be efficiently learned using only a polynomial amount of samples in the number of degrees of freedom through the so-called tensor cross interpolation (TCI) algorithm, assuming it is expressible as a finite bond dimension MPS. We benchmark this learning process on Haar and random MPS states, confirming analytic expectations. Applying the TCI algorithm to quantum eigenstates of various one dimensional quantum systems, we identify cases where eigenstates have entanglement feature learnable with TCI. We conclude with possible applications of the learned entanglement feature, such as quantifying the distance between different entanglement patterns and finding the optimal one-dimensional ordering of physical indices in a given state, highlighting the potential utility of the proposed purity interpolation method.","lang":"eng"}],"year":"2026","publication_status":"published","article_processing_charge":"Yes","OA_type":"gold","publisher":"Verein zur Förderung des Open Access Publizierens in den Quantenwissenschaften","title":"Tensor cross interpolation of purities in quantum many-body systems","PlanS_conform":"1","external_id":{"arxiv":["2503.17230"]},"arxiv":1,"date_created":"2026-05-26T19:39:12Z","project":[{"_id":"23841C26-32DE-11EA-91FC-C7463DDC885E","grant_number":"850899","name":"Non-Ergodic Quantum Matter: Universality, Dynamics and Control","call_identifier":"H2020"}],"oa":1,"OA_place":"publisher","quality_controlled":"1","author":[{"last_name":"Kolisnyk","full_name":"Kolisnyk, Dmytro","first_name":"Dmytro","id":"530a7320-5355-11ee-ae5a-82a46997aaa7","orcid":"0000-0002-8612-8202"},{"first_name":"Raimel A","last_name":"Medina Ramos","full_name":"Medina Ramos, Raimel A","id":"CE680B90-D85A-11E9-B684-C920E6697425","orcid":"0000-0002-5383-2869"},{"full_name":"Vasseur, Romain","last_name":"Vasseur","first_name":"Romain"},{"orcid":"0000-0002-2399-5827","id":"47809E7E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Serbyn, Maksym","last_name":"Serbyn","first_name":"Maksym"}],"acknowledgement":"We acknowledge useful discussions with Richard Küng\r\non the interpolation methods and error spreading, Ilia\r\nA.

Recent evidence from mitochondrial protein import studies and other chaperone systems underscores the critical role of dynamics in balancing sufficiently tight binding, promiscuity, specificity, and release. Dynamic binding of client precursor proteins to import machinery components arises naturally from the avidity of their interactions. Conformational entropy enhances their stability, while the multivalent nature of these interactions ensures that client transfer to downstream insertases occurs without a substantial energy barrier. Here, we discuss this emerging paradigm of dynamic protein handling, using examples where dynamic structures have been resolved and highlight outstanding questions."}],"publication_status":"published","article_type":"original","doi":"10.1002/pro.70630","date_published":"2026-06-01T00:00:00Z","month":"06","file":[{"access_level":"open_access","file_size":3897305,"date_updated":"2026-06-02T07:23:12Z","creator":"dernst","checksum":"e0163459a7238fdcc3fc5e17bedcce9a","date_created":"2026-06-02T07:23:12Z","content_type":"application/pdf","success":1,"file_id":"21937","relation":"main_file","file_name":"2026_ProteinScience_Schneider.pdf"}],"date_updated":"2026-06-02T07:26:34Z","citation":{"apa":"Schneider, J., Guillerm, U., Simoes Pereira, C., &#38; Schanda, P.

How RGPs generate appropriate quantities of distinct cortical cell-types to safeguard a brain of correct size, is not well understood. However, genetic aberration in human, including mutations in PTEN, lead to cortical malformation such as macrocephaly, albeit with unknown etiology. Here we utilized Mosaic Analysis with Double Markers (MADM)-based clonal analysis and single cell phenotyping to decipher the role of Pten in neurogenic and gliogenic RGP lineage progression during cortical ontogeny. While neurogenic RGP lineage progression and projection neuron production was moderately altered in the absence of Pten, cortical astrocyte production was drastically increased. Through genetic epistasis experiments we show that the loss of Pten uncouples astrocyte generation from essential growth factor signaling hubs, funneling into MAPK. Collectively, our results suggest that Pten regulates RGP lineage progression with distinct sequential functions in cortical projection neurogenesis and astrocyte production to ensure the emergence of a correctly-sized cerebral cortex.","lang":"eng"}],"year":"2026","publication_status":"submitted","day":"05","citation":{"short":"O.
