Ontologies in modelling and analysing of big genetic data by N. L. Podkolodnyy, O. A. Podkolodnaya, V. A. Ivanisenko, M. A. Marchenko

“…This paper describes approaches to creating methods for interpreting deep learning models and presents two examples of self-explanatory ontology-based deep learning models: (1) Deep GONet, which integrates Gene Ontology into a hierarchical neural network architecture, where each neuron represents a biological function. Experiments on cancer diagnostic datasets show that Deep GONet is easily interpretable and has high performance in distinguishing cancerous and non-cancerous samples. (2) ONN4MST, which uses biome ontologies to trace microbial sources of samples whose niches were previously poorly studied or unknown, detecting microbial contaminants. …”

Direct‐Print 3D Electrodes for Large‐Scale, High‐Density, and Customizable Neural Interfaces by Pingyu Wang, Eric G. Wu, Hasan Uluşan, Eric Tianjiao Zhao, A.J. Phillips, Alexandra Kling, Madeline Rose Hays, Praful Krishna Vasireddy, Sasidhar Madugula, Ramandeep Vilkhu, Andreas Hierlemann, Guosong Hong, E.J. Chichilnisky, Nicholas A. Melosh

“…This approach enables customizable electrode shape, height, and positioning for precise targeting of neuron populations distributed in 3D. The effectiveness of this approach is demonstrated in tackling the critical challenge of interfacing with the retina—specifically, selectively targeting retinal ganglion cell (RGC) somas while avoiding the axon bundle layer. 6,600‐microelectrode, 35 µm pitch, tissue‐penetrating arrays are fabricated to obtain high‐fidelity, high‐resolution, and large‐scale retinal recording that reveals little axonal interference, a capability previously undemonstrated. …”

Mass‐Guided Single‐Cell MALDI Imaging of Low‐Mass Metabolites Reveals Cellular Activation Markers by James L. Cairns, Johanna Huber, Andrea Lewen, Jessica Jung, Stefan J. Maurer, Tobias Bausbacher, Stefan Schmidt, Pavel A. Levkin, Daniel Sevin, Kerstin Göpfrich, Philipp Koch, Oliver Kann, Carsten Hopf

“…Translation of single cell results to endogenous microglia in organotypic hippocampal slice cultures indicates that LPS‐activation involves changes of the itaconate‐to‐taurine ratio and alterations in neuron‐to‐glia glutamine‐glutamate shuttling. The data suggests that PRISM‐MS can serve as a standard method in single cell metabolomics, given its capability to characterize larger cell populations and low‐mass metabolites.…”
