Conservation of Small Populations02:04

Conservation of Small Populations

17.5K
Small population sizes put a species at extreme risk of extinction due to a lack of variation, and a consequent decrease in adaptability. This weakens the chances of survival under pressures such as climate change, competition from other species, or new diseases. Large populations are more likely to survive pressures such as these, as such populations are more likely to harbor individuals that have genetic variants that are adaptive under new stresses. Small populations are much less...

What is Population Genetics?

65.0K
A population is composed of members of the same species that simultaneously live and interact in the same area. When individuals in a population breed, they pass down their genes to their offspring. Many of these genes are polymorphic, meaning that they occur in multiple variants. Such variations of a gene are referred to as alleles. The collective set of all the alleles within a population is known as the gene pool.

Population Growth

28.8K
Population size is dynamic, increasing with birth rates and immigration, and decreasing with death rates and emigration. In ideal conditions with unlimited resources, populations can increase exponentially, which plots as a J-shaped growth rate curve of population size against time. This type of curve is characteristic of newly-introduced invasive species, or populations that have suffered catastrophic declines and are rebounding.

Microtubule Associated Proteins (MAPs)01:42

Microtubule Associated Proteins (MAPs)

6.0K
Microtubule function and architecture are regulated by an array of specialized proteins called microtubule-associated proteins or MAPs. These proteins are widespread across different organisms and have conserved protein motifs, like the multi-TOG domain for tubulin binding found in the CLASP family of MAPs. Some MAPs are lineage-specific based on their conserved domains. Their functions depend upon the cytoskeletal architecture and cell type they are located within. In-plant cells, a specific...

Structures of Solids02:22

Structures of Solids

18.9K
Solids in which the atoms, ions, or molecules are arranged in a definite repeating pattern are known as crystalline solids. Metals and ionic compounds typically form ordered, crystalline solids. A crystalline solid has a precise melting temperature because each atom or molecule of the same type is held in place with the same forces or energy. Amorphous solids or non-crystalline solids (or, sometimes, glasses) which lack an ordered internal structure and are randomly arranged. Substances that...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Medical Imaging
  • Computational Biology

Background:

  • Understanding human brain structural connectomes is crucial.
  • Existing methods struggle with high-dimensional tractography data from large populations.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a PSC framework for simultaneous characterization of white matter bundles across subjects.
  • Employed brain registration based on cortical parcellations, bundle compression, and novel connection weight extraction.
  • Utilized robust tractography algorithms and streamline post-processing (e.g., gray matter dilation, streamline cutting).

Main Results:

  • The PSC framework enables reproducible extraction of binary, weighted, and streamline-based brain connectomes.
  • Demonstrated application on Human Connectome Project data for characterizing normal variations and heritability.

Conclusions:

  • The PSC framework offers an improved approach for population-based structural connectome analysis.
  • Facilitates reproducible characterization of structural connectome variations and heritability in healthy subjects.
