SUPERVISED MACHINE LEARNING CLASSIFICATION OF PSYCHOSIS BIOTYPES BASED ON BRAIN STRUCTURE: FINDINGS FROM THE BIPOLAR-SCHIZOPHRENIA NETWORK FOR INTERMEDIATE PHENOTYPES (B-SNIP)

Supervised machine learning classification of psychosis biotypes based on brain structure: findings from the Bipolar-Schizophrenia network for intermediate phenotypes (B-SNIP)

Abstract Traditional diagnostic formulations of psychotic disorders have low correspondence with underlying disease neurobiology.This has led to a growing interest in using brain-based biomarkers to capture Conditioner biologically-informed psychosis constructs.Building upon our prior work on the B-SNIP Psychosis Biotypes, we aimed to examine wheth

A metabolic checkpoint protein GlmR is important for diverting carbon into peptidoglycan biosynthesis in Bacillus subtilis.

The Bacillus subtilis GlmR (formerly YvcK) protein is essential for growth on gluconeogenic carbon sources.Mutants lacking GlmR display a variety of phenotypes suggestive of impaired cell wall synthesis including antibiotic sensitivity, aberrant cell morphology and lysis.To define the role of GlmR, we selected suppressor mutations that ameliorate t

Can Daphnia lumholtzi invade European lakes?

The cladoceran Daphnia lumholtzi is a subtropical and tropical zooplankter, and an invasive species in North America.Thus far, D.lumholtzi has not been detected in Europe.Here we investigated whether a hypothetical introduction to Europe could result in a successful invasion, either now or in the near future when facilitated by climate change.In la
