    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a method of generating a population of neurons. This method involves providing a population of human glial progenitor cells: providing a recombinant genetic construct comprising (i) a promoter and/or enhancer for a gene which is selectively or specifically expressed by human glial progenitor cells, and (ii) a nucleic acid sequence encoding one or more neuronal reprogramming factors for producing neurons from glial progenitor cells, where the nucleic acid sequence is operably linked to the 3′ end of said promoter and/or enhancer to achieve expression of the one or more neuronal reprogramming factors; transfecting cells of the glial progenitor cell population with the recombinant genetic construct; and culturing the population after said transfecting under conditions suitable for neuron production from the transfected glial progenitor cells of the population. Also disclosed are methods of inducing the production of neurons, as well as recombinant genetic constructs.

    Abstract: A computation node comprises an input, an output, a bistable node, comprising an input and an output, the output configured to have at least two equilibrium output voltages, a first buffer circuit, having an input and an output, the buffer input connected to the bistable node and the buffer output connected to the computation node, the buffer circuit configured to provide a first output voltage when a voltage at the buffer input is below a threshold, and a second output voltage when the voltage at the buffer input is above the threshold, and a current conveyor node having an input connected to the computation node and an output connected to the bistable node, the current conveyor configured to hold its input at a constant voltage and mirror current received at the input into the input of the bistable node. A network of resistively-coupled computation nodes is also described.

    Abstract: The present application provides compositions and methods for treating cardiac hypertrophy. In one embodiment, the composition comprises an antisense oligonucleotide 10-50 nucleotides in length, wherein the antisense oligonucleotide is capable of forming a double-stranded structure with a target region downstream of a start codon of an upstream open reading frame (uORF) resided within an mRNA of GATA4, wherein the target region spans a double-stranded stem of a stem-loop structure downstream of the GATA4 uORF start codon
