In this episode of Transform Your Workplace, host Brandon Laws talks with Josh Merrill, the CEO and Founder of Confirm, an innovative people platform utilizing Organizational Network Analysis (ONA) for performance reviews. Josh shares the transformative journey of integrating this new methodology into performance evaluations. Tune in to learn the truth about your distribution of talent, the importance of eliminating bias in performance reviews, and how to use ONA to get a pulse on your company's top talent.   TAKEAWAYS Talent distribution follows a power law rather than the commonly assumed bell curve which means that a few employees are creating a disproportionate impact.  Since 60% of manager ratings are influenced by biases, businesses should adopt ONA to provide a more objective evaluation that focuses on network dynamics. ONA, like the wisdom of the crowd, provides accurate insights by considering collective perspectives. Business leaders should implement periodic evaluations to identify impactful employees and address concerns promptly.   A QUICK GLIMPSE INTO OUR PODCAST

G., Castanho, I., Hubbard, L., Creese, B., Bresner, C., Williams, N., Pishva, E., Lunnon, K. Abstract: Parkinsons disease is a highly heterogeneous disorder, encompassing a complex spectrum of clinical presentation including motor, sleep, cognitive and neuropsychiatric symptoms. We aimed to investigate genome-wide DNA methylation networks in post-mortem Parkinsons disease brain samples and test for region-specific association with common neuropsychiatric and cognitive symptoms. Of traits tested, we identify a co-methylation module in the substantia nigra with significant correlation to depressive symptoms and with ontological enrichment for terms relevant to neuronal and synaptic processes. Notably, expression of the genes annotated to the methylation loci present within this module are found to be significantly enriched in neuronal subtypes within the substantia nigra. These findings highlight the potential involvement of neuronal-specific changes within the substantia nigra with regard to depressive symptoms in Parkinsons disease.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.07.04.547622v1?rss=1 Authors: Hao, Y., Li, C., Ming, C. Abstract: Alzheimer's disease (AD), particularly late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD), is a prevalent form of dementia that significantly affects patients' cognitive and behavioral capacities and longevity. Although approximately 70 genetic risk factors linked with AD have been identified, their influence on patient longevity remains unclear. Further, recent studies have associated copy number variations (CNVs) with the longevity of healthy individuals and immune-related pathways in AD patients. This study aims to investigate the role of CNVs on the longevity of AD patients by integrating multi-omics data from the Religious Orders Study/Memory and Aging Project (ROSMAP) cohort through causality network inference. Our comprehensive analysis led to the construction of a CNV-gene-age of death (AOD) causality network. We successfully identified three key CNVs (DEL5006, mCNV14192, and DUP42180) and seven AD-longevity causal genes (PLGRKT, TLR1, PLAU, CALB2, SYTL2, OTOF, and NT5DC1) impacting AD patient longevity, independent of disease severity. This outcome emphasizes the potential role of plasminogen activation and chemotaxis in longevity. We propose several hypotheses regarding the role of identified CNVs and the plasminogen system on patient longevity. However, experimental validation is required to further corroborate these findings and uncover precise mechanisms. Despite these limitations, our study offers promising insights into the genetic influence on AD patient longevity and contributes to paving the way for potential therapeutic interventions.

In today's episode of Psych Talk, I discuss the symptom overlap in mental health diagnoses as classified by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. As many people are aware, there are various symptoms of mental health disorders that are found across multiple diagnoses, which can complicate getting the correct diagnosis or result in individuals receiving multiple diagnoses based on a few symptoms. A few weeks ago, there was a paper, Elemental Psychopathology: Distilling constituent symptoms and patterns of repetition in the diagnostic criteria of the DSM-5, going around Twitter that researched the overlap in symptoms across mental health diagnoses. In this episode, I break down the methods and findings of the research paper and discuss implications of such, including how this impacts diagnosing, both by a mental health professional and self-diagnosis, as well as research implications. Further, I discussed proposed alternative classification systems to the DSM including RDoc, Network Analysis, and HiTOP.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.02.21.529361v1?rss=1 Authors: Akbari, S., Deevband, M. R., Alvar, A. A., Zadeh, E. F., Tabar, H. R., Kelley, P., Tavakoli, M. Abstract: Development of Parkinon's disease causes functional impairment in the brain network of Parkinson's patients. The aim of this study is to analyze brain networks of people with Parkinson's disease based on higher resolution parcellations and newer graphical features. The topological features of brain networks were investigated in Parkinson's patients (19 individuals) compared to healthy individuals (17 individuals) using graph theory. In addition, four different methods were used in graph formation to detect linear and nonlinear relationships between functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) signals. The functional connectivity between the left precuneus and the left amygdala, as well as between the vermis_1_2 and the left temporal lobe was evaluated for the healthy and the patient groups. The difference between the healthy and patient groups was evaluated by non-parametric t-test and U-test. Based on the results, Parkinson's patients showed a significant decrease in centrality criterion compared to healthy subjects. Furtheremore, changes in regional features of brain network were observed. There was also a significant difference between the two groups of healthy subjects and Parkinson's patients in different areas by applying centrality criterion and the correlation coefficients. The results obtained for topological features indicate changes in the functional brain network of Parkinson's patients. Finally, similar areas obtained by all three methods of graph formation in the evaluation of connectivity between paired regions in the brain network of Parkinson's patients increased the reliability of the results.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.02.15.528643v1?rss=1 Authors: Jauny, G., Mijalkov, M., Canal-Garcia, A., Volpe, G., Pereira, J. B., Eustache, F., Hinault, T. T. Abstract: Brain structure and function are intimately linked; however, this association remains poorly understood and the complexity of this relationship has remained understudied. Healthy aging is characterized by heterogenous levels of structural integrity changes that influence functional network dynamics. Here, we used the multilayer brain network analysis on structural (diffusion tensor imaging) and functional (magnetoencephalography) data from the Cam-CAN database. We found that the level of similarity of connectivity patterns between brain structure and function in the parietal and temporal regions (alpha frequency band) was associated with cognitive performance in healthy older individuals. These results highlight the impact of structural connectivity changes on the reorganisation of functional connectivity associated with the preservation of cognitive function, and provide a mechanistic understanding of the concepts of brain maintenance and compensation with aging. Investigation of the link between structure and function could thus represent a new marker of individual variability, and of pathological changes. Copy rights belong to original authors.

K., Karahan, H., Kim, B., Dabin, L. C., Philtjens, S., Wijeratne, H. R. S., McCray, T. J., Smith, D. C., Bissel, S. J., Lamb, B. T., Lasagna-Reeves, C. A., Kim, J. Abstract: Mouse genetic backgrounds have been shown to modulate amyloid accumulation and propagation of tau aggregates. Previous research into these effects has highlighted the importance of studying the impact of genetic heterogeneity on modeling Alzheimer's disease. However, it is unknown what mechanisms underly these effects of genetic background on modeling Alzheimer's disease, specifically tau aggregate-driven pathogenicity. In this study, we induced tau aggregation in wild-derived mice by expressing MAPT (P301L). To investigate the effect of genetic background on the action of tau aggregates, we performed RNA sequencing with brains of 6-month-old C57BL/6J, CAST/EiJ, PWK/PhJ, and WSB/EiJ mice (n=64). We also measured tau seeding activity in the cortex of these mice. We identified three gene signatures: core transcriptional signature, unique signature for each wild-derived genetic background, and tau seeding-associated signature. Our data suggest that microglial response to tau seeds is elevated in CAST/EiJ and PWK/PhJ mice. Together, our study provides the first evidence that mouse genetic context influences the seeding of tau. Copy rights belong to original authors.

It's a nostalgia episode for our two hosts, Patrick and Dan. They tackle Mustafa Emirbayer's 1997 article in the American Journal of Sociology, "Manifesto for a Relational Sociology." According to Emirbayer, "Sociologists today are faced with a fundamental dilemma: whether to conceive of the social world as consisting primarily in substances or processes, in static 'things' or in dynamic, unfolding relations." Was that also true of International Relations? PTJ and Dan certainly thought so back in 1999. Is it still true today? The two may or may not answer this question, but they do work through Emirbayer's article in no little detail.Additional works alluded to in this podcast include Bhaskar, A Realist Theory of Science (1975); Emirbayer and Goodwin, "Network Analysis, Culture, and the Problem of Agency" (1994); Emirbayer and Mische, "What is Agency" (1998); Mann, The Sources of Social Power, Volume II (1993); Pratt, "From Norms to Normative Configurations: A Pragmatist and Relational Approach to Theorizing Normativity in IR" (2020); Sommers, "The Narrative Constitution of Identity: A Relational and Network Approach" (1994); Tilly, Durable Inequality (1998); and Wiener, Contestation and Constitution of Norms in Global International Relations (2018).

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.01.27.524249v1?rss=1 Authors: Kelly, K., Lewis, P., Plun-Favreau, H., Manzoni, C. Abstract: Whilst the majority of PD cases are sporadic, much of our understanding of the pathophysiological basis of disease can be traced back to the study of rare, monogenic forms of disease. In the past decade, the availability of Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) has facilitated a shift in focus, toward identifying common risk variants conferring increased risk of developing PD across the population. A recent mitophagy screening assay of GWAS candidates has functionally implicated the non-specific lethal (NSL) complex in the regulation of PINK1-mitophagy. Here, a bioinformatics approach has been taken to investigate the proteome of the NSL complex, to unpick its relevance to PD progression. The mitochondrial NSL interactome has been built, mining 3 separate repositories: PINOT, HIPPIE and MIST, for curated, literature-derived protein-protein interaction (PPI) data. We built; i) the 'mitochondrial interactome', applying gene-set enrichment analysis (GSEA) to explore the relevance of the NSL mitochondrial interactome to PD and, ii) the 'PD-oriented interactome' to uncover biological pathways underpinning the NSL /PD association. In this study, we find the mitochondrial NSL interactome to be significantly enriched for the protein products of PD associated genes, including the Mendelian PD genes LRRK2 and VPS35. Additionally, the PD associated interactome is enriched for mitochondrial processes; "mitochondrial cell death", "mitochondrial protein localisation", "membrane protein localisation" and "mitochondrial transport". Our data points to NSL complex members OGT and WDR5 as key drivers of this increased PD association. These findings strengthen a role for mitochondrial quality control in both familial and sporadic disease. Copy rights belong to original authors.

L., Pearse, R. V., Bennett, D. A., Ertekin-Taner, N., Young-Pearse, T. L., Chang, R. Abstract: Despite decades of genetic studies on late onset Alzheimer disease (LOAD), the molecular mechanisms of Alzheimer disease (AD) remain unclear. Furthermore, different cell types in the central nervous system (CNS) play distinct roles in the onset and progression of AD pathology. To better comprehend the complex etiology of AD, we used an integrative approach to build robust predictive (causal) network models which were cross-validated over multiple large human multi-omics datasets in AD. We employed a published method to delineate bulk-tissue gene expression into single cell-type gene expression and integrated clinical and pathologic traits of AD, single nucleotide variation, and deconvoluted gene expression for the construction of predictive network models for each cell type in AD. With these predictive causal models, we are able to identify and prioritize robust key drivers of the AD-associated network state. In this study, we focused on neuron-specific network models and prioritized 19 predicted key drivers modulating AD pathology. These targets were validated via shRNA knockdown in human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) derived neurons (iNs), in which 10 out of the 19 neuron-related targets (JMJD6, NSF, NUDT2, YWHAZ, RBM4, DCAF12, NDRG4, STXBP1, ATP1B1, and FIBP) significantly modulated levels of amyloid-beta and/or phosphorylated tau peptides in the postmitotic iNs. Most notably, knockdown of JMJD6 significantly altered the neurotoxic ratios of A{beta} to 40 and p231-tau to total tau, indicating its potential therapeutic relevance to both amyloid and tau pathology in AD. Molecular validation by RNA sequencing (RNAseq) in iNs further confirmed the network structure, showing significant enrichment in differentially expressed genes after knockdown of the validated targets. Interestingly, our network model predicts that these 10 key drivers are upstream regulators of REST and VGF, two recently identified key regulators of AD pathogenesis.

Abstract: Optogenetic control of neural activity enables causal investigation of neural circuits and new perspectives in sensory restoration. Optimal design of the experiment needs to match the optogenetic technology to the precise neural circuit and research question. This often precludes out-of-the-box solutions and require users to thorough characterize the neural response and to tailor the optogenetic tools. Here, we provide a framework to parametrize optogenetic control at the single and population levels and apply it, in mice, to the spiral ganglion neurons (SGN) that form the input stage of the auditory pathway. We employed the ultrafast targeting-optimized Chronos and characterized the light-evoked response by in vivo single-unit recordings in SGNs and neurons of the anteroventral cochlear nucleus (AVCN) that detect coincident SGN input. We demonstrate that spike probability can be gradually dialed by adjusting the width of light pulses like what can be achieved with acoustic clicks of different sound pressure levels. We identified an optimal pulse width of 1.6 ms for maximizing the amount of light intensity information in the spike trains. Further, we identified a spike failure induced during high rate optical stimulation that likely was due to depolarization block and required a few tens of milliseconds to recover. Finally, a semi-stochastic stimulus allowed us to rapidly (within minutes) establish the transfer function from light to SGNs firing and to generate firing of different statistics for approximating the time constant of neuronal integration in AVCN neurons.

Our guests in this episode are Ryan Gallagher, a PhD Candidate in Network Science at Northeastern University, and Brooke Foucault Welles, an Associate Professor in Communication Studies and the Network Science Institute at Northeastern University. We discuss their 2019 CSCW paper, "Reclaiming Stigmatized Narratives: The Networked Disclosure Landscape of #MeToo" with co-authors Elizabeth Stowell and Andrea G. Parker. We talk about their substantive motivation for focusing on #metoo, the networked counter public, and hashtags' influence on social change. Ryan and Brooke also walk us through the advantages of pairing qualitative and quantitative work, weaving ethics throughout every stage of the research process, dealing with missing Tweets, and taking seriously both the "computational" and "social science" sides of CSS.

In this episode, co-hosts Ron Landis and Jennifer Miller deconstruct organizational network analysis or sometimes referred to as ONA. Social interactions are becoming increasingly important to understand in the context of organizational success. While many have access to data related to interactions (i.e., communication patterns including email, chat) little has been done to analyze those patterns. Using ONA to understand and quantify such relational data provides organizations with a means for identifying whether individuals (or groups of individuals) have similar or different employee experiences.  In this episode, we had conversations around these questions:  What is organizational network analysis?  How can organizational network analysis be used?  What kind of data do I need for an organizational network analysis?  Key Takeaways:  Network analysis is a field that studies the relations among a set of actors. Everyday examples include social media platforms (i.e., connections between individuals) and the electric grid. The goal of network analysis is to examine the nature and patterns of those connections.  To establish a network, you need certain kinds of data. Networks have components such as actors, nodes, or vertices. The interactions between the components are sometimes referred to as links or edges. Organizational network analysis examines the patterns of interactions between the components.  At the end of the episode, Jennifer and Ron recommend steps for folks just starting out in this space all the way to the more advanced HR professional.  Related Links  Millan Chicago   

In this week's episode Greg and Patrick have a wonderfully engaging conversation with social network analysis expert Tracy Sweet who is an Associate Professor in the Department of Human Development and Quantitative Methodology at the University of Maryland. Tracy patiently helps us understand what social network analysis is, and how it can be used to better understand the complexities of human behavior. Along the way they also discuss sliding into DMs, fax machines, older millennials, baboons, too much math, inside voices, penguin data, swiping left, probation advice, unreciprocated social isolates, Wordle, the floss dance, power, and talking to your dog.

If you're new, welcome! If you're not, welcome back! This week we spoke with Martin Bouchard who is a professor of Criminology and Criminal Justice at Simon Fraser University. We ask Martin about the social nature of gangs and gang members. He tells us why he thinks gangs are a very social and not necessarily anti-social phenomenon. Martin then discusses the network analysis method and why it may be useful for the study of crime. We then discuss a paper Martin wrote discussing the ways in which network analysis can aid in the study of organized crime.  Martin has published in journals such as Journal of Quantitative Criminology, Justice Quarterly, and Global Crime. You can find him on Twitter @MBouchardCrim.
