Koalas on the brink: Precision DNA test offers a lifeline to Australia’s icons A University of Queensland-led project has developed a tool to standardize genetic testing of koala populations, providing a significant boost to conservation and recovery efforts. Dr Lyndal Hulse from UQ’s School of the Environment said the standardized koala genetic marker panel provides a consistent method for researchers nationwide to capture and share koala genetic variation, […] Written by Admin August 1, 2025August 1, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
AI-directed voxel extraction and volume EM identify intrusions as sites of mitochondrial contact Membrane contact sites (MCSs) establish organelle interactomes in cells to enable communication and exchange of materials. Volume EM (vEM) is ideally suited for MCS analyses, but semantic segmentation of large vEM datasets remains challenging. Recent adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) for segmentation has greatly enhanced our analysis capabilities. However, we show that organelle boundaries, which […] Written by Admin July 31, 2025July 31, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
