Cerebrospinal Fluid Proteomics Study for Diagnosis and Prediction of Alzheimer’s Disease Background and Research Objectives Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease that leads to memory loss and cognitive decline, and currently, there is no effective cure globally. Traditionally, the pathological features of AD include β-amyloid (Aβ)...

Decision Uncertainty as a Contextual Cue for Motor Memory Background In a penalty shootout during a soccer match, players may face two distinctly different decision-making scenarios. For example, a player may decisively kick the ball to the right corner after seeing the goalkeeper move to the other side, or he may kick the same way without being ce...

Functional Connectivity Across the Brain and Temporally Enhanced Non-neuronal Low-Frequency Oscillation (SLFO) Blood Flow Signal Based on Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging Scans In the field of neuroscience, a core question is how the brain’s connectivity reconfigures over time to support adaptive functional changes. These dynamically changing ...

Academic Background In the field of plant biotechnology, traditional gene manipulation methods focus on producing the desired phenotypes and cellular activities through continuous transgene expression. However, strong continuous promoters may lead to gene silencing, metabolic burdens, or other adverse effects on yield, preventing the full realizati...

Generation of Clinically Applicable CAR-NKT Cells Research Background Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T cell therapy has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of B-cell malignancies and multiple myeloma. However, the use of autologous CAR-T cell products presents challenges such as high costs, long manufacturing ...
