Cell-type-specific insight into the function of risk factors in coronary artery disease

Cell-type-specific insight into the function of risk factors in coronary artery disease
2021-07-08
Using single cell technology, a new study sheds light on the significance of genetic risk factors for, and the diversity of cells involved in, the development of coronary artery disease. The researchers analysed human atherosclerotic lesions to map the chromatin accessibility of more than 7,000 cells. The chromatin accessibility is known to reflect active regions and genes in the genome. The findings were published in Circulation Research. Genome-wide association studies of the human genome have identified over 200 loci associated with coronary artery disease. More than 90% of them ...

What kind of sea ice is that? Ask Knut!
2021-07-08
If you've watched Netflix, shopped online, or run your robot vacuum cleaner, you've interacted with artificial intelligence, AI. AI is what allows computers to comb through an enormous amount of data to detect patterns or solve problems. The European Union says AI is set to be a "defining future technology." And yet, as much as AI is already interwoven into our everyday lives, there's one area of the globe where AI and its applications are in their infancy, says Ekaterina Kim, an associate professor at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology's (NTNU) Department of Marine Technology. That area is the Arctic, an area where she has specialized in studying sea ice, among other topics. "It's used a lot in marketing, in medicine, but ...
