The paper identifies convergent cis-regulatory elements in hibernators and homeotherms that underlie metabolic responses to fasting and refeeding.

Deletions of conserved cis-elements tied to hibernator evolution causes diverse metabolic traits in mice.

The paper identifies five rare SNPs associated with suicide death using genetic data from the USGRS and controls, highlighting their potential role in suicide risk and related biological processes.

The paper investigates the role of Ddc allelic expression in parental control over offspring behavior using allele-specific reporter mice and machine learning analyses.

The paper identifies 207 genes associated with completed suicide using genomic data from 43 high-risk Utah families, finding four significant variants linked to suicide risk.

The paper identifies 59 behavioral modules linked to economic behavior in foraging mice using machine learning and shows their genetic and parental influences.
