HSE Researchers Show How Congenital Motor Disorders Affect Brain Development
Researchers from HSE University’s Institute for Cognitive Neuroscience have synthesised the findings of their previous studies on brain development in children with obstetric brachial plexus palsy and arthrogryposis. Their analysis shows that impaired motor function in early childhood not only limits children’s motor experience but also affects memory, categorical thinking, and information processing. The study has been published in Frontiers in Psychology.

Analysis of Ion Atmosphere Around Nucleosomes Using Supercomputer MD Simulations

Supercomputing Frontiers and Innovations. 2022. Vol. 9. No. 2. P. 56–67.
Nikita A. Kosarim, Armeev G., Alexey K. Shaytan, Kirpichnikov M.

The nucleosome is the basic unit of eukaryotic DNA compaction. It consists of about 147 base pairs wrapped around an octamer of histone proteins. Nucleosomal dynamics provides the availability of packaged DNA for various factors that carry out the vital processes associated with chromatin. It is not completely known how the structure and dynamics of the nucleosome depends on the ionic environment. The current researches do not give an unambiguous answer and often contradict each other. In this paper, we demonstrate supercomputer molecular dynamics simulations of nucleosome models surrounded by monovalent sodium and potassium cations. Analyzing the trajectories, we showed the details of the distribution of sodium and potassium ions around the linker DNA, nucleosomal DNA at the sites of nucleosomal opening, and histone residues involved in the process of nucleosomal breathing. We have demonstrated the mobility of DNA linkers and the process of nucleosomal unwrapping in various ionic environments, and also assessed the probable mechanisms of the dependence of nucleosome unwrapping on the type of ions in the system. Our study is intended to emphasize the importance of understanding the role of the ionic environment in the functioning of chromatin.

Synthesis of Acyclic Models for Processes Without Repeating Events
Joulitov A.K., Lomazova I.A., Proceedings of the Institute for System Programming of the RAS 2026 Vol. 38 No. 4(2) P. 215–224
In process mining, DFG (Directly-Follows Graph) models are popular due to their simplicity and clarity. However, if a process is acyclic but contains concurrent events, standard algorithms for discovering DFG models can generate "fake" cycles that do not actually exist in the event log. These cycles hinder the analysis of information processes, significantly reducing the ...
