So the anti-vaxx murderers in government are shutting down mRNA vaccine research in the US.
The biggest medical advance in decades, got the 2023 Nobel Prize, saved millions of lives.
Lots of in-development vaccines, among them for various cancers, AIDS and other things, cancelled.
Not only will this kill and maim untold numbers of people—it also takes leadership in science away from the US.
And for what? Buying the Republicans votes from a few unhinged people.

fly_larva: Drosophila larva brain (2023)
A complete synaptic map of the brain connectome of the larva of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. Nodes are neurons, and edges are synaptic connections, traced individually from brain image sections using three-dimensional electron microscopy–based reconstruction. Node metadata include the neuron hempisphere, hemispherical homologue, cell type, annotations, and inferred cluster. Edge metadata include the type of interaction (`'aa'`,…

Some years ago (2023) my office, on behalf of Digital Rights Ireland, lodged a mass complaint about the Government’s use of the Public Service Cards.
This wasn’t the first such complaint we’d made, but it was on behalf of the most people- over 1000, if memory serves.

Krugman outlines a constellation of possible causes around a core theme: extreme uncertainty.
“What does a business do in the face of this kind of uncertainty? It tries to avoid making commitments that it may soon regret.”
Krugman tries to tie it all to Trump’s recent actions, which is dubious: the post-college job market has been crap since 2022 or 2023; Krugman’s own graph suggests it started worsening circa 2018. The larger theme of uncertainty, however, fits that timeframe.

Can fractal dimension distinguish between grand-design and flocculent spiral arms?
About two-thirds of disk galaxies host spiral arms, ranging from well-delineated grand-design spirals to fragmented flocculent spiral galaxies. We introduce fractal dimension $D_B$ as a non-parametric measure to distinguish between grand-designs and flocculents. We calculate the $D_B$ of 197 grand-designs and 322 flocculents from SDSS DR18, using the samples of \citet{Buta..2015} and \citet{Sarkar..2023}. Our calculated median values of $D_B$ are $1.29^{+0.06}_{-0.04}$ and $1.38^{+0.05}_{-0.06}…

Building Blocks of a User Experience Research Point of View
This paper presents three User Experience Research (UXR) perspectives based on data, evidence and insights - known as Point of View (POV) - showcasing how the strategies and methods of building a POV work in an enterprise setting. The POV are: 1. Smart Visuals: Use AI to extract and translate text from visuals in videos (2019). 2. Assessable Code Editor: Focus on direct AI-feedback to the learner as it is the loop that requires the least effort for the highest impact(2023). 3. Opportunity Lands…

I’m running CalyxOS on my old Fairphone4, not because it’s a bad choice, but precisely to observe how incredibly behind this OS is on security updates.
My primary device today is a Pixel 9a running GrapheneOS, not this outdated, insecure, and privacy-compromised Fairphone 4.
This Fairphone never became my daily driver once I realized just how far behind it is on security and privacy. I used it from October 2022 until I switched to my Pixel 6a running GrapheneOS in early May 2023,…

The orbital period and inclination of the neutron star X-ray transient MAXI J1807+132
The neutron star X-ray transient MAXI J1807+132 has undergone outbursts in 2017, 2019, and 2023. We conducted an $R$-band time series photometry campaign using the Isaac Newton Telescope during the 2022 quiescent state. We detected a periodic variation in the light curve, consistent with ellipsoidal modulation, which allowed us to determine an orbital period of $P_{\rm orb} = 4.258 \pm 0.008$ hr. By modelling the light curve, we obtained a binary inclination of $ i = 72\pm5 \, °$ and a mass ra…

Establishment of global phase coherence in a highly disordered fractal MgO/MgB2 nanocomposite: Roles of interface, morphology and defect
Recently, we have reported that a highly disordered fractal MgO/MgB2 nanocomposite exhibits bulk-like superconducting properties with isotropic pinning, showing an excellent phase-coherent capability irrespective of the low volume fraction (~30 vol. %) of MgB2 [Uchino et al., Phys. Rev. B 101, 035146 (2020); Teramachi et al,, Phys. Rev. B 108, 155146 (2023)]. Hence, this nanocomposite provides a useful experimental system to investigate the relationship between the structural disorder and the e…

CBTOPE2: An improved method for predicting of conformational B-cell epitopes in an antigen from its primary sequence
In 2009, our group pioneered a novel method CBTOPE for predicting conformational B-cell epitopes in a protein from its amino acid sequence, which received extensive citations from the scientific community. In a recent study, Cia et al. (2023) evaluated the performance of conformational B-cell epitope prediction methods on a well-curated dataset, revealing that most approaches, including CBTOPE, exhibited poor performance. One plausible cause of this diminished performance is that available meth…

Identifying High-Risk Areas for Traffic Collisions in Montgomery, Maryland Using KDE and Spatial Autocorrelation Analysis
Despite a global decline in motor vehicle crash fatalities due to improved research and road safety policies, road traffic injuries remain a significant public health concern. The World Health Organization 2023 report highlights that road traffic injuries are the leading cause of death among individuals aged 5-29, with over half of fatalities involving pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists. This study addresses this critical issue by identifying high-risk areas in Montgomery County, Maryland…
