Neuronal migration and ventral subtype identity in the telencephalon depend on SOX1. by Antigoni Ekonomou, Ilias Kazanis, Stavros Malas, Heather Wood, Pavlos Alifragis, Myrto Denaxa, Domna Karagogeos, Andrew Constanti, Robin Lovell-Badge, Vasso Episkopou

“…Furthermore, the migration of non-Sox1-expressing VS neurons (such as those expressing Pax6) was also affected in the absence of SOX1, suggesting that Sox1-expressing neurons play a role in structuring the area of the VS. To test whether SOX1 is required in postmitotic cells for the emergence of VS neuronal identity, we generated mice in which Sox1 expression was directed to all ventral telencephalic precursors, but to only a very few VS neurons. …”

Importance of geotechnical diagnosis in railway management: A review by Jorge Rojas Vivanco, Pierre Breul, Aurélie TALON, Miguel Angel Benz-Navarrete, Sébastien Barbier, Younes Haddani

“…To achieve this, the article has the following structure: (a) Railway track components: the main elements of the track are described and the role of geotechnical components in the stability of the infrastructure is highlighted, (b) Track degradation: The main deterioration of the track, such as loss of geometry, and its relation to the wear of the geotechnical elements are addressed, (c) Monitoring and monitoring: the most commonly used geotechnical inspection methods and their effectiveness in the analysis of granular material are presented, (d) Geotechnical diagnosis: Current maintenance management is analyzed and guidelines for a comprehensive diagnosis are suggested, highlighting cases where poor assessment has generated problems, (e) Maintenance techniques: Preservation methods are reviewed, stressing the importance of accurate diagnosis for their effectiveness, and (f) Future perspectives: Trends such as the use of artificial intelligence and advanced data management in the railway sector are explored.…”

The Dynamics of Infall and Accretion Shocks in the Outer Disk by Susan Terebey, Loraine Sandoval Ascencio, Lizxandra Flores-Rivera, Neal J. Turner, Andrew Barajas

“…Specifically, the STAK model leads to line emission intensity and velocity-moment maps that are asymmetric and offset with respect to the disk structure traced by the dust continuum. We examine archival ALMA data for the class 0/I protostar L1527 and find the C ^18 O velocity moment map has features resembling the disk-plus-envelope emissions that naturally arise when the two are connected by a shock. …”
