TL;DR: Visual signals from the fovea are not essential for normal refractive development or the vision-induced alterations in ocular growth produced by form deprivation, and the peripheral retina, in isolation, can regulate emmetropizing responses and produce anomalous refractive errors in response to abnormal visual experience.
Abstract: Purpose
Because of the prominence of central vision in primates, it has generally been assumed that signals from the fovea dominate refractive development. To test this assumption, the authors determined whether an intact fovea was essential for either normal emmetropization or the vision-induced myopic errors produced by form deprivation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors estimate the moments from daily Standard & Poor's 500 index option data to estimate the implied market skewness risk premium, which is statistically and economically significant and cannot be explained by other common risk factors such as the market excess return or the size, book-to-market, momentum, and market volatility factors.

TL;DR: The construction of a synthetic microbial consortium consisting of two distinct cell types—an “activator” strain and a “repressor” strains that produced two orthogonal cell-signaling molecules that regulate gene expression within a synthetic circuit spanning both strains is described.
Abstract: A challenge of synthetic biology is the creation of cooperative microbial systems that exhibit population-level behaviors. Such systems use cellular signaling mechanisms to regulate gene expression across multiple cell types. We describe the construction of a synthetic microbial consortium consisting of two distinct cell types—an “activator” strain and a “repressor” strain. These strains produced two orthogonal cell-signaling molecules that regulate gene expression within a synthetic circuit spanning both strains. The two strains generated emergent, population-level oscillations only when cultured together. Certain network topologies of the two-strain circuit were better at maintaining robust oscillations than others. The ability to program population-level dynamics through the genetic engineering of multiple cooperative strains points the way toward engineering complex synthetic tissues and organs with multiple cell types.

TL;DR: A liquid state theory based on site-site integral equations is constructed to have the asymptotics given by angular expansion theory, e.g., the dielectric constant as viewed from the solvent is the same as that viewed by the ions as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: A liquid state theory based on site–site integral equations is constructed to have the asymptotics given by angular expansion theory. This results in a theory which shows dielectric consistency, e.g., the dielectric constant as viewed from the solvent is the same as that viewed by the ions. Such consistency is lacking in other extended reference interaction site model (XRISM)‐based theories and leads to unrealistic structural predictions. The Kirkwood–Buff route to thermodynamics is used and allows a physical partitioning of the terms responsible for the solvation process. Sample results for a 1–1 salt are given.
