text: 'Selection accumulates information in the genome—it guides stochastically
evolving populations toward states (genotype frequencies) that would be unlikely
under neutrality. This can be quantified as the Kullback–Leibler (KL) divergence
between the actual distribution of genotype frequencies and the corresponding
neutral distribution. First, we show that this population-level information sets
an upper bound on the information at the level of genotype and phenotype, limiting
how precisely they can be specified by selection. Next, we study how the accumulation
and maintenance of information is limited by the cost of selection, measured as
the genetic load or the relative fitness variance, both of which we connect to
the control-theoretic KL cost of control. The information accumulation rate is
upper bounded by the population size times the cost of selection. This bound is
very general, and applies across models (Wright–Fisher, Moran, diffusion) and
to arbitrary forms of selection, mutation, and recombination. Finally, the cost
of maintaining information depends on how it is encoded: Specifying a single allele
out of two is expensive, but one bit encoded among many weakly specified loci
(as in a polygenic trait) is cheap.'

text: Realistic models of biological processes typically involve interacting components
on multiple scales, driven by changing environment and inherent stochasticity.
Such models are often analytically and numerically intractable. We revisit a dynamic
maximum entropy method that combines a static maximum entropy with a quasi-stationary
approximation. This allows us to reduce stochastic non-equilibrium dynamics expressed
by the Fokker-Planck equation to a simpler low-dimensional deterministic dynamics,
without the need to track microscopic details. Although the method has been previously
applied to a few (rather complicated) applications in population genetics, our
main goal here is to explain and to better understand how the method works. We
demonstrate the usefulness of the method for two widely studied stochastic problems,
highlighting its accuracy in capturing important macroscopic quantities even in
rapidly changing non-stationary conditions. For the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process,
the method recovers the exact dynamics whilst for a stochastic island model with
migration from other habitats, the approximation retains high macroscopic accuracy
under a wide range of scenarios in a dynamic environment.

text: Brain dynamics display collective phenomena as diverse as neuronal oscillations
and avalanches. Oscillations are rhythmic, with fluctuations occurring at a characteristic
scale, whereas avalanches are scale-free cascades of neural activity. Here we
show that such antithetic features can coexist in a very generic class of adaptive
neural networks. In the most simple yet fully microscopic model from this class
we make direct contact with human brain resting-state activity recordings via
tractable inference of the model's two essential parameters. The inferred model
quantitatively captures the dynamics over a broad range of scales, from single
sensor fluctuations, collective behaviors of nearly-synchronous extreme events
on multiple sensors, to neuronal avalanches unfolding over multiple sensors across
multiple time-bins. Importantly, the inferred parameters correlate with model-independent
signatures of "closeness to criticality", suggesting that the coexistence of scale-specific
(neural oscillations) and scale-free (neuronal avalanches) dynamics in brain activity
occurs close to a non-equilibrium critical point at the onset of self-sustained
oscillations.

text: 'We consider a totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) consisting
of particles on a lattice that require binding by a "token" to move. Using a combination
of theory and simulations, we address the following questions: (i) How token binding
kinetics affects the current-density relation; (ii) How the current-density relation
depends on the scarcity of tokens; (iii) How tokens propagate the effects of the
locally-imposed disorder (such a slow site) over the entire lattice; (iv) How
a shared pool of tokens couples concurrent TASEPs running on multiple lattices;
(v) How our results translate to TASEPs with open boundaries that exchange particles
with the reservoir. Since real particle motion (including in systems that inspired
the standard TASEP model, e.g., protein synthesis or movement of molecular motors)
is often catalyzed, regulated, actuated, or otherwise mediated, the token-driven
TASEP dynamics analyzed in this paper should allow for a better understanding
of real systems and enable a closer match between TASEP theory and experimental
observations.'

text: Resting-state brain activity is characterized by the presence of neuronal
avalanches showing absence of characteristic size. Such evidence has been interpreted
in the context of criticality and associated with the normal functioning of the
brain. A distinctive attribute of systems at criticality is the presence of long-range
correlations. Thus, to verify the hypothesis that the brain operates close to
a critical point and consequently assess deviations from criticality for diagnostic
purposes, it is of primary importance to robustly and reliably characterize correlations
in resting-state brain activity. Recent works focused on the analysis of narrow-band
electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetoencephalography (MEG) signal amplitude
envelope, showing evidence of long-range temporal correlations (LRTC) in neural
oscillations. However, brain activity is a broadband phenomenon, and a significant
piece of information useful to precisely discriminate between normal (critical)
and pathological behavior (non-critical), may be encoded in the broadband spatio-temporal
cortical dynamics. Here we propose to characterize the temporal correlations in
the broadband brain activity through the lens of neuronal avalanches. To this
end, we consider resting-state EEG and long-term MEG recordings, extract the corresponding
neuronal avalanche sequences, and study their temporal correlations. We demonstrate
that the broadband resting-state brain activity consistently exhibits long-range
power-law correlations in both EEG and MEG recordings, with similar values of
the scaling exponents. Importantly, although we observe that the avalanche size
distribution depends on scale parameters, scaling exponents characterizing long-range
correlations are quite robust. In particular, they are independent of the temporal
binning (scale of analysis), indicating that our analysis captures intrinsic characteristics
of the underlying dynamics. Because neuronal avalanches constitute a fundamental
feature of neural systems with universal characteristics, the proposed approach
may serve as a general, systems- and experiment-independent procedure to infer
the existence of underlying long-range correlations in extended neural systems,
and identify pathological behaviors in the complex spatio-temporal interplay of
cortical rhythms.

text: 'Half a century after Lewis Wolpert''s seminal conceptual advance on how cellular
fates distribute in space, we provide a brief historical perspective on how the
concept of positional information emerged and influenced the field of developmental
biology and beyond. We focus on a modern interpretation of this concept in terms
of information theory, largely centered on its application to cell specification
in the early Drosophila embryo. We argue that a true physical variable (position)
is encoded in local concentrations of patterning molecules, that this mapping
is stochastic, and that the processes by which positions and corresponding cell
fates are determined based on these concentrations need to take such stochasticity
into account. With this approach, we shift the focus from biological mechanisms,
molecules, genes and pathways to quantitative systems-level questions: where does
positional information reside, how it is transformed and accessed during development,
and what fundamental limits it is subject to?'

text: The ability to adapt to changes in stimulus statistics is a hallmark of sensory
systems. Here, we developed a theoretical framework that can account for the dynamics
of adaptation from an information processing perspective. We use this framework
to optimize and analyze adaptive sensory codes, and we show that codes optimized
for stationary environments can suffer from prolonged periods of poor performance
when the environment changes. To mitigate the adversarial effects of these environmental
changes, sensory systems must navigate tradeoffs between the ability to accurately
encode incoming stimuli and the ability to rapidly detect and adapt to changes
in the distribution of these stimuli. We derive families of codes that balance
these objectives, and we demonstrate their close match to experimentally observed
neural dynamics during mean and variance adaptation. Our results provide a unifying
perspective on adaptation across a range of sensory systems, environments, and
sensory tasks.

text: Attachment of adhesive molecules on cell culture surfaces to restrict cell
adhesion to defined areas and shapes has been vital for the progress of in vitro
research. In currently existing patterning methods, a combination of pattern properties
such as stability, precision, specificity, high-throughput outcome, and spatiotemporal
control is highly desirable but challenging to achieve. Here, we introduce a versatile
and high-throughput covalent photoimmobilization technique, comprising a light-dose-dependent
patterning step and a subsequent functionalization of the pattern via click chemistry.
This two-step process is feasible on arbitrary surfaces and allows for generation
of sustainable patterns and gradients. The method is validated in different biological
systems by patterning adhesive ligands on cell-repellent surfaces, thereby constraining
the growth and migration of cells to the designated areas. We then implement a
sequential photopatterning approach by adding a second switchable patterning step,
allowing for spatiotemporal control over two distinct surface patterns. As a proof
of concept, we reconstruct the dynamics of the tip/stalk cell switch during angiogenesis.
Our results show that the spatiotemporal control provided by our “sequential photopatterning”
system is essential for mimicking dynamic biological processes and that our innovative
approach has great potential for further applications in cell science.

text: Amplitude demodulation is a classical operation used in signal processing.
For a long time, its effective applications in practice have been limited to narrowband
signals. In this work, we generalize amplitude demodulation to wideband signals.
We pose demodulation as a recovery problem of an oversampled corrupted signal
and introduce special iterative schemes belonging to the family of alternating
projection algorithms to solve it. Sensibly chosen structural assumptions on the
demodulation outputs allow us to reveal the high inferential accuracy of the method
over a rich set of relevant signals. This new approach surpasses current state-of-the-art
demodulation techniques apt to wideband signals in computational efficiency by
up to many orders of magnitude with no sacrifice in quality. Such performance
opens the door for applications of the amplitude demodulation procedure in new
contexts. In particular, the new method makes online and large-scale offline data
processing feasible, including the calculation of modulator-carrier pairs in higher
dimensions and poor sampling conditions, independent of the signal bandwidth.
We illustrate the utility and specifics of applications of the new method in practice
by using natural speech and synthetic signals.

text: A central goal in systems neuroscience is to understand the functions performed
by neural circuits. Previous top-down models addressed this question by comparing
the behaviour of an ideal model circuit, optimised to perform a given function,
with neural recordings. However, this requires guessing in advance what function
is being performed, which may not be possible for many neural systems. To address
this, we propose an inverse reinforcement learning (RL) framework for inferring
the function performed by a neural network from data. We assume that the responses
of each neuron in a network are optimised so as to drive the network towards ‘rewarded’
states, that are desirable for performing a given function. We then show how one
can use inverse RL to infer the reward function optimised by the network from
observing its responses. This inferred reward function can be used to predict
how the neural network should adapt its dynamics to perform the same function
when the external environment or network structure changes. This could lead to
theoretical predictions about how neural network dynamics adapt to deal with cell
death and/or varying sensory stimulus statistics.
