This study examines the relationship between short-form video use and episodic memory in young adults, finding that higher use is linked to poorer memory for infrequent items.

The paper identifies CRISPR-Cas12a variants with expanded PAM recognition, enabling targeting of ~25% of the human genome.

The paper shows that engineered GeoCas9 variants enhance genome editing by accelerating DNA unwinding, revealing a new role for the WED domain in this process.

The paper traces the evolutionary origin of eukaryotic RNA-guided endonucleases, showing they evolved from a specific clade of bacterial IS607 TnpB enzymes.
