Researchers discover new genetic driver of autism and other developmental disorders

Researchers discover new genetic driver of autism and other developmental disorders A research group including Kobe University s Professor TAKUMI Toru (also a Senior Visiting Scientist at RIKEN Center for Biosystems Dynamics Research) and Assistant Professor TAMADA Kota, both of the Physiology Division in the Graduate School of Medicine, has revealed a causal gene (Necdin, NDN) in autism model mice that have the chromosomal abnormality called copy number variation. The researchers hope to illuminate the NDN gene s molecular mechanism in order to contribute towards the creation of new treatment strategies for developmental disorders including autism. These research results were published in

Scientists observe a new type of topological defect in chiral magnets for the first time

 E-Mail Credit: Masahiro Nagao Topological defects are formed when the symmetry of a magnetic material is disrupted. Domain walls (DWs) are a type of topological defect that separates regions of different magnetic orientations. A widely studied phenomenon, the manipulation of these defects has potential applications in high-performance memory storage devices, energy processing devices, and quantum computing. Recently, the possibility of other topological defects embedded in or combined with DWs has gained attention for their potential applications in different fields of physics. Some examples of these defects within defects called DW skyrmions and DW bimerons. While theoretical models have supported the existence of these defects, they have not been experimentally observed not before now.

Researchers examine how climate has affected body size during evolution

  TORONTO A group of researchers have found the connection between climate and humans’ fluctuating body size as we’ve evolved over the last million years. The study, published in Nature Communications on Thursday, found that human size fluctuated significantly over the last million years, and that colder temperatures meant larger body sizes. It also found that brain size has changed dramatically but not in conjunction with body size changes or temperatures. The team from Cambridge University and the University of Tübingen looked at the 300 fossils of the genus Homo from across the globe and regional climates from the last million years. They combined this data to pinpoint the exact climate each fossil would have lived through.
