Whereas animal studies have offered cellular- and synaptic-level accounts of these effects, human neuroimaging studies show that exercise improves hippocampal-cortical connectivity at the macroscale level. However, the neurophysiological basis of exercise-induced effects on hippocampal-cortical circuits remains unknown. Experimental evidence supports the idea that hippocampal sharp wave-ripples (SWR) play a critical role in learning and memory. Coupling between SWRs in the hippocampus and neocortex may reflect modulations in inter-regional connectivity required by mnemonic processes. Here, we examine the hypothesis that exercise modulates hippocampal-cortical ripple dynamics in the human brain. We performed intracranial recordings in epilepsy patients undergoing pre-surgical evaluation, during awake resting state, before and after an exercise session. Exercise increased ripple rate in the hippocampus. Exercise also enhanced the coupling and phase-synchrony between cortical ripples in the limbic and the default mode (DM) cortical networks and hippocampal SWRs. Further, a higher heart rate during exercise, reflecting exercise intensity, was related to a subsequent increase in resting state ripples across specific cortical networks, including the DM network. These results offer the first direct evidence that a single exercise session elicits changes in ripple events, a well-established neurophysiological marker of mnemonic processing. The characterisation and anatomical distribution of the described modulation points to hippocampal ripples as a potential mechanism by which exercise elicits its reported short-term effects in cognition."}],"status":"public","date_published":"2026-03-09T00:00:00Z","day":"09","file":[{"date_updated":"2026-03-23T14:27:39Z","access_level":"open_access","creator":"dernst","relation":"main_file","content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"21478","date_created":"2026-03-23T14:27:39Z","checksum":"b5b45c16defeaf88056fc3b939bd0350","file_size":33974419,"file_name":"2026_BrainCommunications_Cardenas.pdf","success":1}],"corr_author":"1","date_updated":"2026-03-23T14:30:47Z","oa_version":"Published Version","issue":"2","oa":1,"language":[{"iso":"eng"}]},{"publication":"American Journal of Botany","year":"2026","volume":113,"title":"Seeds as space-time travelers: How does evolution balance the joint benefits and trade-offs of dormancy and dispersal?","article_type":"letter_note","external_id":{"pmid":["41814642"]},"OA_place":"publisher","department":[{"_id":"NiBa"},{"_id":"GradSch"}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["0002-9122"],"eissn":["1537-2197"]},"article_processing_charge":"No","date_created":"2026-03-22T23:04:33Z","acknowledgement":"We thank the Barton group at the Institute of Scienceand Technology Austria for many fruitful conversationsthat triggered the germination of the ideas and questions discussed here.

With the advent of JWST, we are now able to routinely observe Hα in galaxies at high redshift (z ≳ 3) and thus measure their star formation rates (SFRs). However, using classical SFR(Hα) calibrations to derive the SFRs leads to biased results because high-redshift galaxies are commonly characterized by low metallicities and bursty star formation histories, affecting the conversion factor between the Hα luminosity (LHα) and the SFR. We developed a set of new SFR(Hα) calibrations that allowed us to predict the SFRs of Hα-emitters at z ≳ 3 with very little error. We used the SPHINX cosmological simulations to select a sample of star-forming galaxies representative of the Hα-emitter population observed with JWST. We then derived linear corrections to the classical SFR(Hα) calibrations that took variations in the physical properties (e.g., stellar metallicities) among individual galaxies into account. We obtained two new SFR(Hα) calibrations that compared to the classical calibrations reduce the root mean squared error (RMSE) in the predicted SFRs by ΔRMSE ≈ 0.04 dex and ΔRMSE ≈ 0.06 dex, respectively. Using the recent JWST NIRCam/grism observations of Hα-emitters at z ∼ 6, we show that the new calibrations affect the high-redshift galaxy population statistics: (i) the estimated cosmic SFR density decreases by ΔρSFR ≈ 12%, and (ii) the observed slope of the star formation main sequence increases by Δ∂logSFR/∂logM★ = 0.08 ± 0.02."}],"DOAJ_listed":"1","type":"journal_article","PlanS_conform":"1","publisher":"EDP Sciences","intvolume":"       707","_id":"21481","file_date_updated":"2026-03-23T15:44:09Z","author":[{"orcid":"0000-0001-5346-6048","last_name":"Kramarenko","id":"9a9394cb-3200-11ee-973b-f5ba2a8b16e4","first_name":"Ivan","full_name":"Kramarenko, Ivan"},{"first_name":"J.","last_name":"Rosdahl","full_name":"Rosdahl, J."},{"full_name":"Blaizot, J.","last_name":"Blaizot","first_name":"J."},{"full_name":"Matthee, Jorryt J","orcid":"0000-0003-2871-127X","last_name":"Matthee","id":"7439a258-f3c0-11ec-9501-9df22fe06720","first_name":"Jorryt J"},{"first_name":"H.","last_name":"Katz","full_name":"Katz, H."},{"full_name":"Di Cesare, Claudia","first_name":"Claudia","id":"2d002343-372f-11ef-98ec-a164d20427cb","last_name":"Di Cesare"}],"citation":{"ama":"Kramarenko I, Rosdahl J, Blaizot J, Matthee JJ, Katz H, Di Cesare C.

The tensor optimization is carried out sequentially, similarly to the well-known density matrix renormalization group algorithm. Our approach is provably efficient under certain technical conditions expected to be met in short-range correlated states and in typical noisy experimental settings. Under the same conditions, we also provide an efficient scheme to estimate fidelities between the learned and the experimental states.

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","ddc":["530"],"date_published":"2026-03-05T00:00:00Z","status":"public","tmp":{"short":"CC BY (4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode"},"OA_type":"gold","month":"03","doi":"10.1103/68rs-3qgn","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","date_updated":"2026-03-23T15:59:11Z","oa_version":"Published Version","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"oa":1,"day":"05","corr_author":"1","file":[{"date_created":"2026-03-23T15:53:29Z","file_id":"21493","checksum":"6d8a68e4a19f8dad5abdf75f72316f3d","success":1,"file_size":2680924,"file_name":"2026_PhysicalReviewResearch_Huebl.pdf","date_updated":"2026-03-23T15:53:29Z","creator":"dernst","access_level":"open_access","content_type":"application/pdf","relation":"main_file"}],"OA_place":"publisher","title":"Entropic size control of self-assembled filaments","article_type":"original","volume":8,"year":"2026","publication":"Physical Review Research","project":[{"grant_number":"FTI23-G-011","_id":"8dd93da8-16d5-11f0-9cad-d2c70200d9a5","name":"Dynamically reconfigurable self-assembly with triangular DNA-origami bricks"}],"acknowledgement":"We thank Maitane Muñoz-Basagoiti for helpful discussions.

A key prerequisite is the feedback between auxin signaling and directional auxin transport, mediated by PIN transporters. Despite the developmental importance of canalization, the molecular components linking auxin perception to the regulation of PIN auxin transporters remain poorly understood. Here, we identify TOW, a novel and essential component of auxin canalization that links intracellular auxin signaling with cell surface auxin perception. TOW is regulated downstream of TIR1/AFB-Aux/IAA-WRKY23 transcriptional auxin signaling. tow mutants exhibit defects in regeneration and de novo vasculature formation, along with impaired formation of polarized, PIN-expressing auxin channels. At the subcellular level, these mutants display disrupted auxin-induced PIN polarization and altered PIN endocytic trafficking dynamics. TOW localizes predominantly to the plasma membrane, where it interacts with receptor-like kinases involved in auxin canalization, including the TMK1 auxin co-receptor and the CAMEL-CANAR complex. TOW promotes PIN interaction with these kinases and stabilizes PINs at the cell surface. Together, our findings identify TOW as a molecular link between intracellular and cell surface auxin signaling mechanisms that converge on PIN trafficking and polarity, providing new insights into how auxin signaling regulates directional auxin transport for the self-organizing formation of vasculature during flexible plant development."}],"publication_status":"published","ddc":["580"],"corr_author":"1","file":[{"file_size":12986894,"file_name":"2026_CurrentBiology_Li.pdf","success":1,"file_id":"21496","date_created":"2026-03-24T08:34:37Z","checksum":"fe6c41fdab58a55df5f2a5860c02acdc","relation":"main_file","content_type":"application/pdf","date_updated":"2026-03-24T08:34:37Z","access_level":"open_access","creator":"dernst"}],"day":"23","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"oa":1,"issue":"6","oa_version":"Published Version","date_updated":"2026-03-24T08:36:40Z","department":[{"_id":"JiFr"}],"date_created":"2026-03-23T15:11:16Z","acknowledgement":"We thank Dr. Z.

Here, we derive how the genetic variance within a population is changed under the influence of indirect maternal, paternal and parent-of-origin effects under random mating. We also consider indirect effects of a sibling, in particular how the genetic variance is altered when looking at the phenotypic difference between two siblings. The calculations are then extended to include assortative mating (AM), which alters the variance by inducing increased homozygosity and correlations within and across loci. AM likely leads to covariance of parental genetic effects, a measure of the similarity of parents in the indirect effects they have on their children. We propose that this assortment for parental characteristics, where biological parents create similar environments for their children, can create shared parental effects across traits and the appearance of cross-trait AM. Our theory shows how the resemblance among relatives increases under both AM, indirect and parent-of-origin effects. When our model is used to predict correlations among relatives in human height, we find that explaining the patterns observed in real data requires both indirect genetic effects and assortative mating. The degree to which direct, indirect and epigenetic effects shape the phenotypic variance of complex traits remains an open question that requires large-scale family data to be resolved.","lang":"eng"}],"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","doi":"10.1093/genetics/iyag042","pmid":1,"main_file_link":[{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1093/genetics/iyag042","open_access":"1"}],"month":"02","OA_type":"hybrid","tmp":{"short":"CC BY (4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode"},"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"oa":1,"date_updated":"2026-03-24T06:48:10Z","oa_version":"Published Version","corr_author":"1","day":"12","publication":"Genetics","year":"2026","title":"A quantitative genetic model for indirect genetic effects and genomic imprinting under random and assortative mating","article_type":"original","external_id":{"pmid":["41677404"]},"related_material":{"link":[{"url":"https://github.com/medical-genomics-group/familyMC","relation":"software"}]},"OA_place":"publisher","department":[{"_id":"MaRo"}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["1943-2631"]},"article_processing_charge":"Yes (via OA deal)","date_created":"2026-03-23T15:02:54Z","acknowledgement":"We thank members of the Medical Genomics group at ISTA for their comments, which improved this manuscript.

Diptera have undergone multiple sex-chromosome turnovers and expansions while maintaining their general chromosomal content, which makes them an ideal clade to study such transitions. We analyzed more than 100 dipteran whole-genome assemblies and identified 4 new lineages that underwent sex-chromosome turnover (in addition to the 5 previously reported). We find that the majority of turnovers happened in the group Schizophora, which tend to have fewer genes on Muller element F (the chromosome homologous to the ancestral insect X chromosome) than lower dipterans, a factor previously hypothesized to facilitate turnover. Most derived X chromosomes have higher GC content than autosomes, consistent with a high prevalence of male achiasmy in Diptera. In addition, an excess of gene movement out of the X is detected for most of these new X chromosomes, and many of these moved genes have high testis expression in Drosophila, suggesting that out-of-X gene movement contributes to the long-term demasculinization of X chromosomes."}],"date_published":"2026-03-12T00:00:00Z","status":"public","OA_type":"gold","month":"03","tmp":{"short":"CC BY (4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode"},"main_file_link":[{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1093/evlett/qrag003","open_access":"1"}],"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","doi":"10.1093/evlett/qrag003"},{"doi":"10.15479/AT-ISTA-21137","user_id":"68b8ca59-c5b3-11ee-8790-cd641c68093d","tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","name":"Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International Public License (CC BY-SA 4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by_sa.png","short":"CC BY-SA (4.0)"},"month":"3","OA_type":"free access","date_published":"2026-03-24T00:00:00Z","status":"public","license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/","corr_author":"1","file":[{"title":"Cell git repository","content_type":"application/zip","relation":"main_file","description":"Python3 library written in C++20 to integrate vertex models.

To this end, we develop libraries in Lean 4 that present definitions and results from diverse areas of MathematiCS (i.e., Mathematics and Computer Science). The aim is to create code that is understandable, believable, useful, and elegant. The code should stand for itself as much as possible without a need for documentation; however, this text redundantly documents our code artifacts and provides additional context that isn’t present in the code. This thesis is written for readers who know Lean 4 but are not familiar with any of the topics presented. We manifest truth and beauty in three formalized areas of MathematiCS.\r\n\r\nWe formalize general grammars in Lean 4 and use grammars to show closure of the class of type-0 languages under four operations; union, reversal, concatenation, and the Kleene star.\r\n\r\nOur second stop is the theory of optimization. Farkas established that a system of linear inequalities has a solution if and only if we cannot obtain a contradiction by taking a linear combination of the inequalities. We state and formally prove several Farkas-like theorems over linearly ordered fields in Lean 4. Furthermore, we extend duality theory to the case when some coefficients are allowed to take “infinite values”. Additionally, we develop the basics of the theory of optimization in terms of the framework called General-Valued Constraint Satisfaction Problems, and we prove that, if a Rational-Valued Constraint Satisfaction Problem template has symmetric fractional polymorphisms of all arities, then its basic LP relaxation is tight.\r\n\r\nOur third stop is matroid theory. Seymour’s decomposition theorem is a hallmark result in matroid theory, presenting a structural characterization of the class of regular matroids. We aim to formally verify Seymour’s theorem in Lean 4. First, we build a library for working with totally unimodular matrices. We define binary matroids and their standard representations, and we prove that they form a matroid in the sense how Mathlib defines matroids. We define regular matroids to be matroids for which there exists a full representation rational matrix that is totally unimodular, and we prove that all regular matroids are binary. We define 1-sum, 2-sum, and 3 sum of binary matroids as specific ways to compose their standard representation matrices. We prove that the 1-sum, the 2-sum, and the 3-sum of regular matroids are a regular matroid, which concludes the composition direction of the Seymour’s theorem. The (more difficult) decomposition direction remains unproved.\r\n\r\nIn the pursuit of truth, we focus on identifying the trusted code in each project and presenting it faithfully. We emphasize the readability and believability of definitions rather than choosing definitions that are easier to work with. In search for beauty, we focus on the philosophical framework of Roger Scruton, who emphasizes that beauty is not a mere decoration but, most importantly, beauty is the means for shaping our place in the world and a source of redemption, where it can be viewed as a substitute for religion."}],"publication_status":"published","ddc":["511","000"],"date_published":"2026-03-04T00:00:00Z","status":"public","day":"04","corr_author":"1","file":[{"success":1,"file_name":"2026_Dvorak_Martin_Thesis.pdf","file_size":1771231,"checksum":"cface6dc18152680962b5361575f6e4f","date_created":"2026-03-04T08:56:15Z","file_id":"21394","content_type":"application/pdf","relation":"main_file","creator":"mdvorak","access_level":"open_access","date_updated":"2026-03-04T08:56:15Z"},{"content_type":"application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document","relation":"source_file","creator":"mdvorak","access_level":"closed","date_updated":"2026-03-04T09:03:37Z","file_name":"2026_Dvorak_Martin_Thesis.docx","file_size":864585,"checksum":"290ddfacfb7e07fb07e6f0b334e67c90","date_created":"2026-03-04T09:03:37Z","file_id":"21395"}],"alternative_title":["ISTA Thesis"],"date_updated":"2026-03-27T12:37:00Z","oa_version":"Published Version","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"oa":1,"date_created":"2026-03-04T09:26:46Z","article_processing_charge":"No","publication_identifier":{"issn":["2663-337X"],"isbn":["978-3-99078-074-9"]},"department":[{"_id":"GradSch"},{"_id":"VlKo"}],"OA_place":"repository","page":"160","degree_awarded":"PhD","related_material":{"record":[{"status":"public","id":"13120","relation":"part_of_dissertation"},{"relation":"part_of_dissertation","status":"public","id":"21398"},{"relation":"part_of_dissertation","status":"public","id":"20071"}],"link":[{"relation":"software","description":"Full version of all definitions, statements, and proofs for Chapter 3.1 (Linear duality)","url":"https://github.com/madvorak/duality/tree/v3.5.0"},{"url":"https://github.com/madvorak/vcsp/tree/v8.2.0","description":"Full version of all definitions, statements, and proofs for Chapter 3.2 (Valued Constraint Satisfaction Problems)","relation":"software"},{"relation":"software","description":"Full version of all definitions, statements, and proofs for Chapter 4 (Seymour project)","url":"https://github.com/Ivan-Sergeyev/seymour/tree/v1.2.0"},{"relation":"software","url":"https://github.com/madvorak/chomsky/tree/v1.2.0","description":"Full version of all definitions, statements, and proofs for Chapter 5 (Theory of grammars)"},{"description":"Old version (Lean 3) of the project about grammars","url":"https://github.com/madvorak/grammars","relation":"software"},{"relation":"software","url":"https://github.com/madvorak/preliminaries/blob/main/Preliminaries.lean","description":"Demonstration of (minimal) requirements for selected algebraic classes used in my Ph.D. thesis"}]},"title":"Pursuit of truth and beauty in Lean 4 : Formally verified theory of grammars, optimization, matroids","year":"2026","publisher":"Institute of Science and Technology Austria","type":"dissertation","has_accepted_license":"1","citation":{"mla":"Dvorak, Martin. <i>Pursuit of Truth and Beauty in Lean 4 : Formally Verified Theory of Grammars, Optimization, Matroids</i>.

Their quantum counterparts have recently drawn attention for exhibiting highly degenerate eigenstates at zero energy—known as zero modes—stemming from chiral symmetry. Yet, the structure and implications of these zero modes remain poorly understood. In this work, we focus on the properties of the zero mode subspace in quantum kinetically constrained models with a U(1) particle-conservation symmetry. We use the U(1) East, which lacks inversion symmetry, and the inversion-symmetric U(1) East-West models to illustrate our two main results. First, we observe that the simultaneous presence of constraints and chiral symmetry generally leads to a parametric increase in the number of zero modes due to the fragmentation of the many-body\r\nHilbert space into disconnected sectors. Second, we generalize the concept of compact localized states from single-particle physics and introduce the notion of collective bound states, a special kind of nonergodic eigenstates that are robust to enlarging the system size. We formulate sufficient criteria for their existence, arguing that the degenerate zero mode subspace plays a central role, and demonstrate bound states in both example models and in a two-dimensional model, the U(1) North-East, and in the pairflip model, a system without particle conservation. Our results motivate a systematic study of bound states and their relation to ergodicity breaking, transport, and other properties of quantum kinetically constrained\r\nmodels.

Many evaluated tools, especially ensemble frameworks, matched or exceeded star allele classifications (ROC‑AUC up to 0.85 for allele definitions, 0.95 in vitro; TPR up to 0.99 for exomes) and accurately predicted severe antidepressant adverse events for carriers of deleterious variants in CYP2C19 (OR 1.20–1.35).

Using ensemble and single-molecule assays combined with cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), we studied the interaction between pioneer TFs OCT4–SOX2 and the human BRG1/BRM-associated factor (BAF) complex on nucleosomes. BAF engages TF-bound substrates in two orientations, placing OCT4–SOX2 at either the remodeler ENTRY or EXIT site. At the ENTRY site, OCT4–SOX2 initially coexists with BAF without structural interference. However, continued DNA translocation is expected to cause collisions with bound TFs, which can trigger remodeling direction reversals or may induce TF dissociation. To accommodate TFs at the EXIT site, BAF undergoes structural rearrangements, and ensemble assays reveal a nucleosome subpopulation translocating away from TF-binding sites. Moreover, single-molecule experiments show that nucleosome-bound BAF frequently changes remodeling direction, and we identify an ADP-bound remodeler conformation as a potential intermediate. Together, these findings reveal key aspects of the conformational dynamics and remodeling outcomes underlying BAF processing of TF-bound nucleosomes."}],"publication_status":"published","ddc":["570"],"pmid":1,"doi":"10.1016/j.molcel.2026.01.021","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","tmp":{"short":"CC BY (4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode"},"month":"02","OA_type":"hybrid","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"oa":1,"issue":"4","date_updated":"2026-03-30T12:09:08Z","oa_version":"Published Version","file":[{"file_size":9786677,"file_name":"2026_MolecularCell_Weiss.pdf","success":1,"file_id":"21510","date_created":"2026-03-30T12:04:38Z","checksum":"e16a7315b64a706184b177ea1621523c","relation":"main_file","content_type":"application/pdf","date_updated":"2026-03-30T12:04:38Z","access_level":"open_access","creator":"dernst"}],"day":"19"},{"day":"11","corr_author":"1","oa_version":"Published Version","date_updated":"2026-03-30T05:58:35Z","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"oa":1,"main_file_link":[{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1111/nph.71072","open_access":"1"}],"tmp":{"short":"CC BY (4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode"},"OA_type":"hybrid","month":"03","doi":"10.1111/nph.71072","pmid":1,"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","abstract":[{"text":"Embryogenesis in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana provides a framework for understanding how cell polarity and patterning coordinate with hormonal signalling to establish the plant body plan. Following fertilisation, the zygote divides asymmetrically to generate apical and basal lineages, establishing the apical–basal axis that defines future shoot and root poles. Genetic and molecular analyses of classical mutants including gnom, monopteros (mp), bodenlos (bdl) and topless revealed that localised auxin biosynthesis, directional transport and downstream transcriptional responses are central to apical–basal axis establishment and organ initiation. The main components of this regulation are polarly localised PIN auxin transporters and downstream modules involving MONOPTEROS and WUSCHEL-RELATED HOMEOBOX transcription factors. Advances in microscopy have transformed the study of Arabidopsis embryogenesis: fluorescence-compatible clearing reagents and three-dimensional reconstructions now permit quantitative analyses of cell geometry, division orientation, and cytoskeletal dynamics. Live ovule imaging setups with confocal laser scanning and multiphoton microscopes enable real-time observation of embryo development, while laser-assisted cell ablation can be used to probe cell-to-cell communication and fate plasticity. Together, these methodological breakthroughs position Arabidopsis embryos as a prime model for dissecting the chemical and biophysical cues that shape plant development.","lang":"eng"}],"publication_status":"epub_ahead","status":"public","date_published":"2026-03-11T00:00:00Z","publisher":"Wiley","PlanS_conform":"1","type":"journal_article","citation":{"ieee":"D.

To assess the functional significance of cerebellar glycogen, we analyzed behavior in mice lacking glycogen synthase 1 (Gys1) in BG or PCs using a floxed Gys1 line. Gys1 deficiency in either PCs or GFAP-positive cells reduced anxiety-like behavior, whereas combined deletion caused PC degeneration and ataxia.

Quadrupolar (ℓ = 2) mixed modes also contain information regarding internal dynamics but are very rarely characterised due to their low amplitude and the challenging identification of adjacent or overlapping rotationally split multiplets affected by near-degeneracy effects. We aim to extend the broadly used asymptotic seismic diagnostics beyond ℓ = 1 mixed modes by developing an analogue asymptotic description of ℓ = 2 mixed modes while explicitly accounting for near-degeneracy effects that distort their rotational multiplets. We have derived a new asymptotic formulation of near-degenerate mixed ℓ = 2 modes that describes off-diagonal terms representing the interaction between modes of adjacent radial orders. This formalism, expressed directly in the mixed-mode basis, provides analytical expressions for the near-degeneracy effects. We implemented the formalism within a global Bayesian mode-fitting framework for a direct fit of all ℓ = 0, 1, 2 modes in the power spectrum density. We were able to asymptotically model the asymmetric rotational splitting present in various radial orders of ℓ = 2 modes observed in young red giant stars without the need for any numerical stellar modelling. We applied our formalism to the Kepler target KIC 7341231, and it yielded core and envelope rotation rates consistent with previous numerical modelling while providing improved constraints from the global and model-independent approach. We also characterised the new target, KIC 8179973, measuring its rotation rate and mixed-mode parameters for the first time. As our framework relies on a direct global fit, it allows for much better precision on the asteroseismic parameters and rotation rate estimates than standard methods, yielding better constraints for rotation inversions. We have placed the first observational constraints on the asymptotic ℓ = 2 mixed-mode parameters (ΔΠ2, q2, and εg, 2), thus paving the way towards the use of asymptotic seismology beyond ℓ = 1 mixed modes.","lang":"eng"}],"ddc":["520"],"date_published":"2026-03-01T00:00:00Z","status":"public","tmp":{"short":"CC BY (4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode"},"month":"03","OA_type":"diamond","doi":"10.1051/0004-6361/202558023","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","has_accepted_license":"1","article_number":"A321","scopus_import":"1","quality_controlled":"1","citation":{"ama":"Liagre BRB, Desai AA, Einramhof L, Bugnet LA.

Our analysis focuses on tropical precipitation characteristics spanning a wide range of spatio-temporal scales—including the diurnal cycle, extreme precipitation, convective organization, and the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO)—along with interactions between convection and the thermodynamic environment. All three models commonly show weaker convective organization with smaller precipitation cells than observed, though the strength of the bias varies by model. This diversity is introduced by differences in the representation of (a) convective initiation affected by the convective sensitivity to moisture and (b) tropospheric moistening associated with deep convection. Models with stronger thermodynamic-convection coupling increase environmental moisture near convection, thereby enhancing convective organization. This has important upscale effects on the MJO; while IFS and NICAM capture its eastward propagation well, ICON has difficulty reproducing it. The amplitudes and phases of precipitation diurnal cycles over land show much greater disagreement among the models than over ocean, influenced by how convection is initiated. Biases in rain evaporation and cold pool formation hinder the propagation of mesoscale convection, leading to errors such as the misrepresentation of nocturnal convection moving off the coast of Sumatra in IFS and ICON. These results highlight the importance of thermodynamic-convection coupling in realistically simulating tropical convection across scales. To improve this coupling, kilometer-scale models require better representation of the interaction between resolved convection and three-dimensional turbulent mixing.","lang":"eng"}],"ddc":["550"],"corr_author":"1","file":[{"success":1,"file_name":"2026_JAMES_Takasuka.pdf","file_size":3854313,"checksum":"ca7dac4bab31348d0640ed22580c6dce","date_created":"2026-04-07T09:11:23Z","file_id":"21665","content_type":"application/pdf","relation":"main_file","creator":"dernst","access_level":"open_access","date_updated":"2026-04-07T09:11:23Z"}],"day":"01","ec_funded":1,"oa":1,"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"issue":"3","oa_version":"None","date_updated":"2026-04-07T09:14:51Z"}]
