Article Abstract
Orthology information has been used for searching patterns in high-dimensional data, allowing transferring functional information between species. The key concept behind this strategy is that orthologous genes share ancestry to some extent. While reconstructing the history of a single gene is feasible with the existing computational resources, the reconstruction of entire biological systems remains challenging. In this study, we present Bridge, a new algorithm designed to infer the evolutionary root of orthologous genes in large-scale evolutionary analyses. The Bridge algorithm infers the evolutionary root of a given gene based on the distribution of its orthologs in a species tree. The Bridge algorithm is implemented in R and can be used either to assess genetic changes across the evolutionary history of orthologous groups or to infer the onset of specific traits in a biological system.

Relational accountability in AI-driven pharmaceutical practices: an ethics approach to bias, inequity and structural harm.

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into pharmaceutical practices raises critical ethical concerns, including algorithmic bias, data commodification and global health inequities. While existing AI ethics frameworks emphasise transparency and fairness, they often overlook structural vulnerabilities tied to race, gender and socioeconomic status. This paper introduces relational accountability-a feminist ethics framework-to critique AI-driven pharmaceutical practices, arguing that corporate reliance on biased algorithms exacerbates inequalities by design.

Purpose: To evaluate a generative artificial intelligence (GAI) framework for creating readable lay abstracts and summaries (LASs) of urologic oncology research, while maintaining accuracy, completeness, and clarity, for the purpose of assessing their comprehension and perception among patients and caregivers.
Methods: Forty original abstracts (OAs) on prostate, bladder, kidney, and testis cancers from leading journals were selected. LASs were generated using a free GAI tool, with three versions per abstract for consistency.

Motivation: A genome-wide variant effect calibration method was recently developed under the guidelines of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics and the Association for Molecular Pathology (ACMG/AMP), following ClinGen recommendations for variant classification. While genome-wide approaches offer clinical utility, emerging evidence highlights the need for gene- and context-specific calibration to improve accuracy. Building on previous work, we have developed an algorithm tailored to converting functional scores from both multiplexed assays of variant effects (MAVEs) and computational variant effect predictors (VEPs) into ACMG/AMP evidence strengths.

Background: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS), a chronic inflammatory disorder affecting axial joints, is frequently complicated by uveitis. However, the molecular mechanisms linking AS to secondary uveitis remain poorly understood.
Methods: We integrated transcriptomic datasets from AS (GSE73754) and uveitis (GSE194060) cohorts to identify shared molecular pathways.

Computer vision has been identified as one of the solutions to bridge communication barriers between speech-impaired populations and those without impairment as most people are unaware of the sign language used by speech-impaired individuals. Numerous studies have been conducted to address this challenge. However, recognizing word signs, which are usually dynamic and involve more than one frame per sign, remains a challenge.
