- Combinatorial and Inducible CRISPRa/i Enables Canalized hiPSC Forward Programming and Iterative Refinement via Single-Cell Genomics
Synthetic gene-regulation logic is established in immortalized cell lines but remains largely aspirational in human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) and derivatives. This gap constrains both mechanistic discovery and translational engineering in physiologically relevant models. We developed CIRI (Combinatorial Inducible CRISPR in IPSCs), an isogenic, safe-harbor-engineered platform in which tetracycline-responsive single guide RNAs (sgRNAs) carry modular RNA aptamers that recruit RNA-binding proteins and effector domains. This design enables multimodal regulation from a single catalytically inactive Cas9 (dCas9), exemplified by orthogonal CRISPR activation and interference (CRISPRa/i). After optimizing sgRNA-aptamer architectures, we achieved robust CRISPRa and CRISPRi in hiPSCs and hiPSC-derived cardiac organoids. CIRI rapidly channels hiPSC forward programming into skeletal myocytes by activating MYOD1 while repressing NANOG, POU5F1/OCT4, and SOX2. Combinatorial pooled dual-guide single-cell RNA sequencing screens identify ID3 as a roadblock and KDM6B and SMARCD3 as synergistic enhancers of myogenic maturation. Together, CIRI establishes a programmable synthetic biology framework in human stem cell models.
- Species- and Topic-aware Representation Learning for Antimicrobial Peptide Discovery
Antimicrobial resistance poses a major global health challenge, necessitating efficient strategies to discover potent antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). While recent generative models can produce many candidate sequences, experimentally validating all generated peptides in wet labs is impractical due to the high costs and time involved in such measurements. As a result, there is a strong demand for accurate predictions of peptide efficacy, typically measured as the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). We introduce STAMP, a framework for Species-and Topic-aware Representation Learning in AMP Discovery. STAMP integrates protein language model embeddings with species conditioning and topic-aware representations that capture sequence level patterns, enabling generalizable predictions across multiple bacterial species within a single model. We evaluated STAMP on three benchmark datasets, which include two previously published datasets and a newly curated dataset derived from DBAASP, addressing duplicates and inconsistencies systematically. STAMP achieved strong predictive performance across these datasets, demonstrating a Pearson correlation coefficient (PCC) of 0.837 and an R2 of 0.70, outperforming several baseline models. Importantly, we further validated our prediction model using peptides that were experimentally tested for their antimicrobial activity against E.coli. and S.epidermidis bacteria, demonstrating its real-world applicability. Furthermore, residue-level importance analyses provide insights into the sequence determinants governing antimicrobial activity.
- Decoding Cognitive States from fMRI Using Classical Machine Learning and Temporal Dynamics Analysis: An Interpretable Approach Using the Human Connectome Project
We propose a rigorous and reproducible methodology for analyzing functional MRI data, aimed at: (1) demonstrate their efficiency in classifying task-induced brain states with a limited amount of data, (2) present a methodology to identify brain regions critical for classification and reveal their uniqueness across different states, and (3) show, using strong mathematical methods, that the discriminative power of these regions depends not only on their spatial localization but also on their coordinated temporal activity. Through correlation and temporal structure analyses, we demonstrated that top-ranked regions exhibit stronger, more structured, and richer dependencies than low-ranked regions, underscoring the critical role of temporal dynamics in shaping distinct cognitive brain states. Our work addresses the need for a transparent, accessible, and interpretable framework for studying cognitive processes through neuroimaging data. We analyzed fMRI data from 587 healthy participants from the Human Connectome Project across seven cognitive tasks. Finally, we perform a detailed analysis of the identified brain regions to support further neuroscientific interpretation and discussion.
- Development positions malignant cellular states but does notexplain their diversification
Epithelial cancers are often described as aberrant reactivations of embryonic or tissue-forming programs, but whether malignant cellular-state diversification is actually constrained by developmental trajectories remains unclear. Here, we present a quantitative framework to test this idea in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Using representation learning on large-scale single-cell data, we build a reference space that captures the main axes of normal foregut and pancreatic epithelial variation. Malignant cells can be mapped into this space, showing that developmental biology helps interpret their identity. However, these coordinates account for only part of the variation. A substantial portion lay outside the reference space, and the residual component was structured rather than diffuse. Furthermore, displacements between cancer states showed weak alignment with canonical axes and did not correspond to simple progression along them, even when they retained measurable components within the broader subspace. Thus, developmental programs offer a useful coordinate system for describing where PDAC states sit relative to normal epithelia, but they do not explain the directions along which malignant states differ. Instead, malignant diversification follows additional structured, cancer-adaptive axes outside the dominant geometry of normal development. More generally, these results demonstrate how disease-state variation can be decomposed into shared coordinates of normal identity and distinct directions of pathological reprogramming.
- Forecasting novel therapeutic development in biomedical research
Early identification of promising drug research topics is challenging yet crucial for the scientific community to accelerate the development of novel therapeutics. In this work, we leverage large-scale public data from the biomedical literature to extract predictive features to identify promising therapeutic research topics at an early stage. We divide the global citation graph of biomedical literature into a time series of research topics and extract topic features based on citation activity, publication content, and measurable flocking of scientists into novel research topics. Based on these features, our machine learning model identifies research topics that in the future yield Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drugs years before approval (F1-score of 0.84). 80% of target drugs are predicted in advance, with 65% predicted 8 or more years before approval. This predates the start of phase 2 clinical trials in the vast majority of positive predictions. These results show this approach can efficiently flag research topics generating approved drugs several years prior to approval using public data that would have been contemporaneous at the time of prediction. Thus, reliable forecasting can be accomplished with a high-level view of the publication and citation behavior of scientists, without depending on clinical trial data that may only be deposited with a significant lag. This demonstrates that it is possible to detect early signals of future FDA approved therapies even without any specialized information about these applied research efforts.
- GeneKnow: AI-powered literature synthesis for gene-context analysis
Interpreting gene function in specific biological contexts is essential for biomedical research, yet manual literature review is labor-intensive. We developed GeneKnow, a source-grounded framework that uses generative AI models within a controlled hybrid workflow to produce reliable, traceable literature synthesis supported by authentic citations. Through systematic benchmarking, we showed that GeneKnow outperforms mainstream web-interface AI tools in generating trustworthy context-specific gene function syntheses without fabricated citations and minimizing hallucinations.
- Instant Prior-Free Resolution Enhancement for Cross-Modality Microscopy
The resolving power of optical microscopy is fundamentally constrained by the diffraction of light, limiting our ability to visualize subcellular structures. Computational methods, particularly deconvolution, can restore blurred images but critically depend on an accurate point spread function (PSF), whose estimation is often impractical and error-prone, leading to artifacts. Here, we introduce Nonlinear Fourier Re-weighting (NFR), a rapid algorithm that operates without any prior knowledge of the imaging system, achieving deconvolution-like effects through a single logarithmic mapping of the image's Fourier spectrum. This non-iterative process re-balances spatial frequency components to computationally reverse the effects of optical blurring. We demonstrate that NFR robustly enhances resolution beyond the Sparrow limit and recovers authentic structural details. NFR excels where traditional methods fail, remaining effective in the presence of severe optical aberrations and high noise. Furthermore, NFR synergistically improves the output of super-resolution modalities like structured illumination microscopy (SIM), and its near-instantaneous processing enables real-time enhancement of dynamic biological processes, such as in vivo multi-photon microscopic imaging deep within scattering tissue. By decoupling high-fidelity image restoration from system modeling, NFR offers a powerful, accessible, and universally applicable tool for improving image quality across diverse microscopic techniques, facilitating the analysis of large datasets and the discovery of previously obscured biological phenomena.
- SeGA-GNN: Semantically Gated Augmented Graph Neural Networks for Wearable-Based Emotion Detection
Background: Wearable technologies enable scalable and continuous monitoring of emotional states through passive sensing of physiological and behavioral signals. However, conventional learning approaches often struggle to model the complex temporal, contextual, and relational dependencies underlying human emotions. To address these limitations, we propose a graph-based framework that represents multimodal wearable observations as heterogeneous knowledge graphs enriched with semantic information derived from Large Language Models (LLMs), enabling richer contextual understanding beyond raw sensor measurements. Methods: We constructed a heterogeneous knowledge graph using multimodal Fitbit physiological signals and affective self-report data collected from 45 users. Framing mood prediction and emotion detection was formulated as both binary and ternary node classification tasks. We evaluated five baseline heterogeneous Graph Neural Network (GNN) architectures and compared them with the proposed Semantically Gated Augmented Graph Neural Network (SeGA-GNN) framework, which dynamically integrates LLM-generated semantic embeddings into graph representations through a gated cross-modal fusion mechanism. Results: The baseline GNN models achieved strong performance, with classification accuracies ranging from 0.7525 to 0.9739 for binary classification and 0.6249 to 0.9699 for ternary classification. The proposed SeGA framework consistently improved predictive performance across most architectures. In particular, semantic augmentation transformed the HAN model from moderate baseline performance into near-perfect emotion recognition capability, achieving SeGA-HAN Accuracy = 0.9988 and AUC = 1.0000 for binary classification and Accuracy = 0.9979 and AUC = 1.0000 for ternary classification. Discussion and Conclusion: Integrating LLM-derived semantic contextualization into heterogeneous graph learning enables effective modeling of contextual information that is not directly captured by wearable physiological signals alone. The proposed SeGA-GNN framework demonstrates that adaptive semantic fusion substantially improves the accuracy, robustness, and interpretability of wearable-based emotion detection. These findings establish a promising direction for next-generation wearable affective computing systems and intelligent emotion-aware applications.
- Stigmatizing Language Detection in Opioid Use Disorder Patient-Directed Discharge Clinical Documentation: A Privacy-Preserving Analysis Using a Locally Deployed Large Language Model
Objective: Stigmatizing language in the electronic health record (EHR) has been associated with adverse patient experience in substance use disorder care, including opioid use disorder (OUD). This study evaluated a privacy-preserving, locally-deployed large language model as a method to detect stigmatizing language documentation in OUD patients with patient-directed discharge (PDD). Methods: A retrospective cohort study of 477 inpatient admissions from the MIMIC-IV database with a diagnosis of opioid use disorder were classified using a locally deployed Gemma-4-31b-it-bf16 model and predefined 140 term lexicon to identify stigmatizing language in clinical documentation. Results: Analysis of clinical documentation showed stigmatizing language was present in 84.1% (190/226) in the PDD cohort vs 62.2% (156/251) in the non-PDD cohort, with an unadjusted odds ratio of 3.21 (95% CI 2.07-4.98; p < 0.0001). After adjustment for age, sex, insurance status, marital status, and race, PDD discharge remained an independent predictor of stigmatizing documentation (aOR 2.24, 95% CI 1.40-3.59; p < 0.0001). Further analysis of stigma intensity showed higher stigmatizing markers in the PDD cohort vs the non-PDD cohort (2.85 {+/-} 2.39 vs 2.02 {+/-} 2.44; p < 0.0001). Discussion and Conclusion: Stigmatizing language is detected with increased frequency and prevalence in clinical documentation of OUD patients that initiate PDD compared to those that adhere to standard discharge processes. A locally deployed large language model (LLM) offers a scalable, privacy-preserving method to audit clinical documentation for stigmatizing language.
- Multi-Agent AI for Chest Radiography: A Sequential Segmentation and LLM-Driven Consultative Tool for Medical Training
Background: Traditional diagnostic models lack explainability, while multimodal language models prone to hallucination remain unsafe for medical education. An interactive, risk-free artificial intelligence framework is required to serve as a reliable clinical mentor for radiology trainees. Methods: We propose a multi-agent architecture decoupling deterministic image analysis from generative consultation. Specialized computer vision models perform anatomical localization and pathological segmentation. These quantitative outputs are synthesized into a structured payload, which grounds a locally hosted large language model (LLaVA 7B) using strict prompt guardrails and prerequisite protocols. Results: The system effectively eliminates visual hallucinations by intercepting unanchored queries. The artificial intelligence tutor successfully contextualizes spatial anomalies and baseline metrics, generating accurate conversational explanations and formally structured radiology reports while strictly enforcing medical safety disclaimers. Discussion and Conclusion: By anchoring language generation exclusively to verified algorithmic realities, this framework transforms opaque diagnostic models into safe, interactive educational simulators. This establishes a highly reliable paradigm for integrating explainable artificial intelligence into medical training.
- Compatibility of National Food Composition Databases with USDA FoodData Central: A Seven-Country LLM-Based Analysis
To evaluate the international interoperability of food composition databases, we assessed the compatibility of seven national food composition tables with USDA FoodData Central (FDC) using the LLM-based matching method reported previously (Nakagawa and Yamamoto, 2026). Databases from four English-speaking countries (Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand), South Korea, and Japan were compared with 8,158 USDA FDC entries (SR Legacy and Foundation Foods, excluding Survey/FNDDS). Match rates varied by country (62.0-89.7%) and food category. After excluding six USDA categories unsuitable for cross-national comparison, 45.2% of the remaining 6,290 entries were not matched by any country. Canada showed the highest concordance, reflecting shared North American food supply. Japan and South Korea showed similar low coverage for vegetables and spices. These findings suggest that while USDA FDC represents a practical foundation for a globally comprehensive food composition database given its breadth, systematic incorporation of country-specific foods and classification schemes will be necessary to achieve true international interoperability.

- Developing and Evaluating Deep Learning Approaches for Visual Field Denoising in Glaucoma
Purpose To investigate the relative efficacy of nine distinct visual field (VF) denoising artificial intelligence (AI) methods and a pathology-aware AI strategy to discourage over-correction of glaucomatous defects. Design Retrospective study. Participants 87,940 paired visual field (VF) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) samples from a tertiary academic center. Methods Denoising models were trained on a separate VF-only dataset and evaluated on an independent structure-function dataset of paired VF-OCT samples. We implemented and evaluated nine distinct VF denoising strategies representing three broad categories: baseline measurements, self-supervised and image restoration models (including Noise2Noise, Noise2Void, and NAFNet), and latent variable compression-based models (autoencoders and variational autoencoders). All models were designed to reconstruct VF sensitivity maps. We then predicted retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT) maps from the denoised VFs using a fixed, independently trained VF-to-RNFLT prediction model. Main Outcome Measures Predicted VF and RNFLT maps and resultant evaluation metrics. Results The raw VF baseline achieved a global R2 of 0.5468 and MAE of 16.83 um. Restoration-based models maintained or slightly improved concordance, with the pathology-aware NAFNet achieving the highest global R2 of 0.5485 and a comparable MAE of 16.82 um. In contrast, compression-based models degraded concordance, with CNN-VAE showing a significant reduction (R2 approximately 0.50). In severe glaucoma, concordance decreased across all methods; however, compression architectures exhibited disproportionately greater degradation compared with restoration-based approaches. Conclusions We present a comparative benchmark of AI-based VF denoising strategies paired with structure-function evaluation. While restoration-based models can reduce variability without loss of biological signal, latent compression risks attenuating clinically meaningful defects. Visually smoother fields are not necessarily more biologically accurate.

- Alphabet seeks $80 billion to fund AI buildout
Alphabet said Monday it plans to raise up to $80 billion in equity to help fund its AI ambitions, which includes a $10 billion investment from Berkshire Hathaway via a private deal. Why it matters: One of the world's biggest companies, which has had historically high cash flow, is seeking more cash to keep up in the AI race. Driving the news: Alphabet said the proceeds will support "capital expenditures to scale AI infrastructure and global compute" amid "unprecedented customer demand." The financing includes: $30 billion in underwritten public offerings, split between mandatory convertible preferred stock and common stock. $40 billion through an at-the-market stock offering program expected to begin in Q3. $10 billion from Berkshire Hathaway via a private deal, adding to a stake the company has been building since Q3 2025. Zoom out: This comes after Alphabet has already sought out additional funds by issuing corporate debt, becoming the first company in modern history to issue a 100-year bond . Alphabet and the four other major hyperscalers are set to spend over $750 billion this year, which could expand to $4 trillion by 2030 according to Morgan Stanley . The bottom line: The Big Tech companies have to invest in AI for fear that it will replace them. The bet is an expensive one, but as Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai said himself: "The risk of under-investing is dramatically greater than the risk of over-investing."
