Nine machine learning algorithms were trained on attributes of known effector and non-effector proteins in E. tarda to develop a species-specific effector prediction program. Different N-terminal lengths of proteins were tested to determine the most accurate length for prediction. The top performing algorithm was a Bayesian Network with a ROC AUC of 0.833. While results are promising, more data is needed to select the best length and further improve prediction accuracy before the program can be used to predict new effector proteins in E. tarda. Experimental validation of predictions will enhance understanding of the pathogen's virulence mechanisms and aid vaccine development.

Single Cell Insights: Studying Environmental Microbial Communities Cell by CellQIAGEN
Dissecting complex microbial communities has incredible potential in the quest to decipher the world around us and find new sources of enzymes, antibiotics and other drugs. The challenge that remains is how to gain a deeper understanding of the roles and interactions of individual microbes. Single cell sequencing has emerged as an innovative investigational approach that provides a view of the cell-by-cell community by separating out individual microbes prior to sequencing. This issue of Single Cell Insights reviews peer-reviewed journal articles that describe applications and methodologies for single cell sequencing of environmental microbial communities.

The resistance of parasites to existing drugs and the availability of better technology platforms has driven the discovery of new drugs. Microfluidic devices have been used to facilitate faster screening of compounds, controlled sampling/sorting of whole animals, and automated behavioral pattern recognition. In most cases, drug effects on small creatures (e.g., Caenorhabditis elegans) are measuredelegant by a single parameter such as worm velocity or stroke frequency. We present a multi-parameter extraction method to characterize modes of paralysis in C. elegans over a longer duration. This was done using a microfluidic device featuring real-time imaging, exposing worms to four anthelmintic drugs at EC75, where 75% of the worm population is affected. We monitored the worms' behavior with metrics such as curls per second, types of paralyzation, mode frequency, and number/duration of active/immobilization periods. Differences were observed in how the worms paralyzed in the various drug environments at equivalent concentrations. This study highlights the importance of assessing drug effects on small animals with multiple parameters, measured at regular intervals over a prolonged period, to accurately detect resistance and adaptability in chemical environments.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
