What AIMS EduData Cohort 1 Learned About Teachers and Students
AIMS EduData gives early-career researchers grants and access to data from widely used math learning platforms—Curriculum Associates, Khan Academy, EdLight, and the University of Florida Lastinger Center for Learning—to study how students and teachers actually learn math. The first cohort of AIMS EduData grantees were the first group to work with this data; this summer, they came together to share what they found. I attended as an outsider.

Functional allelic diversity of PTGS components revealed by a high-throughput RUBY-based screening
INTRODUCTION Small RNA-mediated post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) is one of the principal mechanisms underlying antiviral immunity and endogenous gene regulation in plants (Hamilton & Baulcombe, 1999). Uncovering the PTGS components can facilitate the understanding of RNAi mechanisms and promote the application of RNAi-based methods in crop breeding (Dalakouras et al., 2020; Koeppe et al., 2023; Saurabh et al., 2014).

Identification of susceptibility modules and genes through WGCNA and ceRNA network analysis in neuropathic pain-induced anxiodepression
Abstract Neuropathic pain (NP) is frequently comorbid with anxiety and depression, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms in the brain remain poorly understood, hindering the development of targeted therapies. This study aimed to identify key transcriptional networks and regulatory pathways in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) associated with NP-induced anxiodepression. We analyzed transcriptomic data (GSE92718) from the ACC of a mouse model of chronic NP.
Enantioconvergent vinylcyclopropane–cyclopentene rearrangement with vessel-controlled chemodivergence
Abstract The vinylcyclopropane–cyclopentene (VCP–CPent) rearrangement serves as a fundamental method for constructing five-membered carbocycles from vinylcyclopropanes. However, achieving enantioconvergent rearrangement of less activated VCPs remains a formidable challenge. Here we report a strategy to achieve enantioconvergent VCP–CPent rearrangement of vinyl gem-difluorocyclopropanes.
Influence of anodic polarization products of NiCu low alloy steel in compacted bentonite on its corrosion behavior
Abstract The corrosion products of steel overpacks for high-level radioactive waste disposal significantly affect their cathodic depolarization behavior during corrosion and may even alter the depolarization mechanism. In this study, the anodic polarization products of NiCu low alloy steel were prepared by potentiostatic polarization in compacted bentonite with 20% and 40% water contents.
Timing impact of single shot femoral nerve block on rebound pain in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty: a prospective randomized controlled trial
Abstract Introduction: The number of total knee arthroplasties (TKA) is steadily increasing worldwide, exceeding 3 million cases annually. Postoperative pain affects over 60% of patients and is a major barrier to early recovery. Femoral nerve block (FNB) is widely used for analgesia in TKA. This study investigated whether the timing of FNB influences the incidence of rebound pain after TKA.
A Systematic Review of 33 Cases of Branchiogenic Carcinoma: Clinicopathological Features and Prognostic Outcomes
1 Introduction Branchiogenic carcinoma (BC), a rare malignancy arising from branchial cleft remnants, is embryologically linked to developmental anomalies of the 2nd–4th pharyngeal arches (Figure 1). Predominant theories posit malignant transformation of congenital branchial cleft epithelium as the core mechanism, though debates persist regarding its classification as a distinct entity, with some scholars attributing cases to misdiagnosed metastatic squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).
Mind the Gap-Imaging Buried Interfaces in Twisted Oxide Moirés
1 Introduction Propelled by the experimental discovery of superconductivity in twisted bilayer graphene [1], the last few years have witnessed tremendous interest in the field of “twistronics” where the twist angle between two-dimensional (2D) materials in a van der Waals heterostructure is tuned to control electronic correlations in the emergent moiré superlattice [2-5].

Harnessing Endogenous Homeobox Genes for Synthetic Apomixis in Hybrid Rice
Heterosis significantly boosts crop productivity and adaptability, yet this advantage erodes in progeny due to genetic segregation, necessitating costly annual hybrid seed production (Underwood and Mercier 2022). Synthetic apomixis has attracted considerable attention in breeding for its potential to fix heterosis.
HBsAg loss in chronic hepatitis B patients with an HBsAg decline plateau can be enhanced by intermittent PEG-IFN treatment
Abstract Background: During interferon (IFN) treatment patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB), HBsAg levels often declines to a plateau. This study investigated the HBsAg loss rate in patients receiving continuous IFN treatment after reaching a plateau compared with patients who suspended IFN treatment for 3–6 months.

Identification and characterization of botulinum neurotoxin-like two-component toxins in Paeniclostridium ghonii
Abstract Insecticidal bacterial proteins play key roles in insect-bacteria interactions and have been used as biopesticides. Here, we identify two insecticidal proteins in Paeniclostridium ghonii, designated PG-toxin 1 (PG1) and PG-toxin 2 (PG2), which are homologs of botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs). Unlike BoNTs, PG1 and PG2 contain two separate proteins: One is the protease light chain (LC), and the other is the heavy chain containing the translocation domain and the receptor binding domain.
