Peripheral sensory signaling in homeothermic mammals is a thermally constrained process where prolonged exposure to temperatures below 10°C disrupts neurotransmission and may incur irreversible nerve damage. The hibernating thirteen-lined ...

Elucidating the internal representation of language in the brain has major implications for cognitive science, brain disorders, and artificial intelligence. A pillar of linguistic studies is the notion that words have defined functions, oft...

Neanderthals had a robust build and distinctive skeletal features. The hypothalamic-pituitary-somatotropic (HPS) axis, with growth hormone (GH) as a central signaling molecule, plays a crucial role in regulating skeletal development. To exp...

Hookworms of the family Ancylostomatidae are intestinal parasites that infect hundreds of millions of people worldwide, contributing to malnutrition, anemia, and impaired development. Although hookworms are known to secrete immunomodulatory...
Transmission heterogeneity emerges from uncoupled parasite shedding and spreading [0.03%]
解耦的寄生虫脱落和传播导致传输异质性

Disease transmission is highly heterogeneous, yet hosts are often classified as high- or low-risk transmitters based on single metrics such as parasite load or shedding. Here, we test whether transmission-associated processes, which are com...
