Deep Behavioral Phenotyping in Systems Neuroscience for Functional Atlasing a...Ana Luísa Pinho
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides means to characterize brain activations in response to behavior. However, cognitive neuroscience has been limited to group-level effects referring to the performance of specific tasks. To obtain the functional profile of elementary cognitive mechanisms, the combination of brain responses to many tasks is required. Yet, to date, both structural atlases and parcellation-based activations do not fully account for cognitive function and still present several limitations. Further, they do not adapt overall to individual characteristics. In this talk, I will give an account of deep-behavioral phenotyping strategies, namely data-driven methods in large task-fMRI datasets, to optimize functional brain-data collection and improve inference of effects-of-interest related to mental processes. Key to this approach is the employment of fast multi-functional paradigms rich on features that can be well parametrized and, consequently, facilitate the creation of psycho-physiological constructs to be modelled with imaging data. Particular emphasis will be given to music stimuli when studying high-order cognitive mechanisms, due to their ecological nature and quality to enable complex behavior compounded by discrete entities. I will also discuss how deep-behavioral phenotyping and individualized models applied to neuroimaging data can better account for the subject-specific organization of domain-general cognitive systems in the human brain. Finally, the accumulation of functional brain signatures brings the possibility to clarify relationships among tasks and create a univocal link between brain systems and mental functions through: (1) the development of ontologies proposing an organization of cognitive processes; and (2) brain-network taxonomies describing functional specialization. To this end, tools to improve commensurability in cognitive science are necessary, such as public repositories, ontology-based platforms and automated meta-analysis tools. I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.

Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvementIshaGoswami9
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.
This presentation explores a brief idea about the structural and functional attributes of nucleotides, the structure and function of genetic materials along with the impact of UV rays and pH upon them.

The use of Nauplii and metanauplii artemia in aquaculture (brine shrimp).pptxMAGOTI ERNEST
Although Artemia has been known to man for centuries, its use as a food for the culture of larval organisms apparently began only in the 1930s, when several investigators found that it made an excellent food for newly hatched fish larvae (Litvinenko et al., 2023). As aquaculture developed in the 1960s and ‘70s, the use of Artemia also became more widespread, due both to its convenience and to its nutritional value for larval organisms (Arenas-Pardo et al., 2024). The fact that Artemia dormant cysts can be stored for long periods in cans, and then used as an off-the-shelf food requiring only 24 h of incubation makes them the most convenient, least labor-intensive, live food available for aquaculture (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021). The nutritional value of Artemia, especially for marine organisms, is not constant, but varies both geographically and temporally. During the last decade, however, both the causes of Artemia nutritional variability and methods to improve poorquality Artemia have been identified (Loufi et al., 2024).
Brine shrimp (Artemia spp.) are used in marine aquaculture worldwide. Annually, more than 2,000 metric tons of dry cysts are used for cultivation of fish, crustacean, and shellfish larva. Brine shrimp are important to aquaculture because newly hatched brine shrimp nauplii (larvae) provide a food source for many fish fry (Mozanzadeh et al., 2021). Culture and harvesting of brine shrimp eggs represents another aspect of the aquaculture industry. Nauplii and metanauplii of Artemia, commonly known as brine shrimp, play a crucial role in aquaculture due to their nutritional value and suitability as live feed for many aquatic species, particularly in larval stages (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021).

Droughts can cause severe economic and social disruption, leading to food and water shortages, crop failure, and livestock deaths. This can result in malnutrition, famine, and displacement of people, which can indirectly contribute to illness and death.
This reduction in water availability can result in decreased sanitation and hygiene, which can contribute to the spread of water-borne diseases such as cholera, typhoid fever, and dysentery
drought can increase the prevalence of vector-borne diseases such as malaria, dengue fever, and West Nile virus as the vectors, such as mosquitoes and ticks, are able to thrive in stagnant water sources that become more common during drought.
drought can lead to changes in the distribution and abundance of wildlife, which can in turn affect the occurrence of zoonotic diseases, where animals are the primary hosts and transmit the disease to humans.
During a drought, air quality may decline due to increased dust and particulate matter in the air, which can exacerbate respiratory symptoms and trigger respiratory flare-ups. Drought can also lead to an increase in wildfires, which can release large amounts of smoke and other air pollutants into the air, further worsening respiratory conditions
Firearm suicides account for approximately half of all suicides in the United States. However, non-firearm suicides are also a significant cause of death, particularly among certain populations such as women, younger individuals, and those with mental health or substance use disorders. Non-firearm methods of suicide include suffocation, hanging, poisoning, and jumping from heights. Both types of suicides have been linked to various risk factors such as social isolation, access to lethal means, and mental illness. Efforts to prevent suicides in the United States often focus on reducing access to firearms and improving mental health services.
Drought can impact occupational stress in farmers, but there is limited understanding of how.
A study using repeated measures data found that the job strain ratio, a metric of occupational psychosocial stress, increased during drought conditions among Midwestern US farmers.
The increase in job strain ratio was driven mostly by increases in psychological job demand, and there were no differences observed by participant sex, age group, or geographic region.
Drought increased the property crime but not the violent crime
The pathways with the greatest support in the literature focus on the economic and migratory effects of drought.
The causal process diagram highlights the complexity of the relationships between drought and mental health, including the multiple ways that factors can interact and lead to various outcomes.

Longer-term drought (12-month timescale) showed higher estimates compared to medium-term drought (6-month timescale) for association between drought and firearm suicide.
Positive associations were observed between drought and firearm suicide in all stages of drought, with a peak in the middle of severe stages.
PAFs (population attributable fractions) for firearm suicide were highest in worsening severe to exceptional drought conditions, followed by improving severe to exceptional drought, while the highest PAF for non-firearm suicide was observed in improving moderate to severe drought conditions.
