Effector T-cell trafficking between the leptomeninges and the cerebrospinal fluid

In multiple sclerosis, brain-reactive T cells invade the central nervous system (CNS) and induce a self-destructive inflammatory process. T-cell infiltrates are not only found within the parenchyma and the meninges, but also in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) that bathes the entire CNS tissue. How the T cells reach the CSF, their functionality, and whether they traffic between the CSF and other CNS compartments remains hypothetical....

Non-classical correlations between single photons and phonons from a mechanical oscillator

Interfacing a single photon with another quantum system is a key capability in modern quantum information science. It allows quantum states of matter, such as spin states of atoms, atomic ensembles or solids, to be prepared and manipulated by photon counting and, in particular, to be distributed over long distances. Such light–matter interfaces have become crucial to fundamental tests of quantum physics and realizations...

Competition between DNA methylation and transcription factors determines binding of NRF1

Eukaryotic transcription factors (TFs) are key determinants of gene activity, yet they bind only a fraction of their corresponding DNA sequence motifs in any given cell type. Chromatin has the potential to restrict accessibility of binding sites; however, in which context chromatin states are instructive for TF binding remains mainly unknown. To explore the contribution of DNA methylation to constrained TF binding, we mapped...

Geek of the Week: Socedo’s Akash Badshah straddles the line between engineer and entrepreneur
Akash1
Akash Badshah calls himself the “classic millennial engineer,” but really he finds himself sitting squarely at the intersection between an engineer and people manager. He wears a lot of hats as the product architect at Socedo, a Seattle startup that helps business generate sales leads from Twitter. He has to think strategically about Socedo’s longterm roadmap as the...
