Label-Conditioned Cross-Modal Fusion for Adult-to-Pediatric ECG Transfer via Curriculum-Gated Contrastive Alignment

We propose PEACE (Pediatric-Adult ECG Alignment via Cross-modal Enhancement), an adult-to-pediatric ECG transfer framework pretrained on MIMIC-IV ECGs and adapted to pediatric targets....

Olfactory learning potentiates long-range cortical GABAergic inputs onto adult-born neurons.
Adult neurogenesis in the olfactory bulb (OB) contributes to structural and functional plasticity, influencing olfactory perception, learning, and memory. Adult-born granule cells (abGCs) exhibit unique morphological, electrophysiological, and synaptic properties compared to their neonatally born counterparts, suggesting a specialized role in olfactory processing. In the OB, such processing relies both on sensory inputs from the olfactory epithelium as well as top-down cortical feedback,...
