FY2022 Annual Report
Physics and Biology Unit
Professor Jonathan Miller
From cephalopod camouflage and covid pandemiology to human cognition, natural language processing, and genome evolution, the mission of the Physics and Biology unit is to enable data to find its own voice through analytical, numerical, and machine-learning methods.

2.2 Compositional GC% heterogeneity of invertebrate and vertebrate genomes
- Type of collaboration: Joint research
- Researchers:
- Dr. Radka Symonová, University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice
- Dr. Lucia Zifcakova, OIST, Dr. Zdenek Lajbner, OIST
In the first paper born out of this collaboration, we describe a hidden compositional GC% heterogeneity of two fish species chromosomes from publicly available genomes. In the paper number 4. in Publications section, we introduce new bioinformatic tool Evan, which simulates GC-banding technique used in classic cytogentics and uses a flexible sliding window to create a figures on soft-masked genomes. These figures, as the figure above, show portions of genome that has been soft-masked (red dots) versus unmasked (green dots) represented as genomic positions of dots on x axis and GC% content on the y axis. This is helpful in detecting GC% fluctuations that would be undetected by standard GC-banding method in classical karyotyping. Further, we plan to apply this method to available cephalopod genomes, which are known to be unsuccessfully karyotyped by GC-banding method.
3. Activities and findings
3.1 Medicinal plants: are they safe enough for fish health?
Contributor: Mehmet Arif Zoral
The antipathogenic, immunomodulatory, and other beneficial properties of medicinal plants have made them a potentially ideal alternative to chemotherapeutic treatments for fish health. Therefore, medicinal plants as alternative therapeutics in fish have been regarded by many studies as healthy and safe because plants are “natural” and thus considered harmless. However, some toxicology studies raise concerns for these medicinal plants’ safety and implications for application on fish. These studies reveal that the plant application may lead to some potential health risks on fish. The aim of this review is to briefly summarize and discuss the adverse effects of medicinal plants on fish health.
3.2 A high-resolution flux-matrix model describes the spread of diseases in a spatial network and the effect of mitigation strategies.
Contributors: Guillaume Le Treut, Greg Huber, Mason Kamb, Kyle Kawagoe, Aaron McGeever, Jonathan Miller, Reuven Pnini, Boris Veytsman, David Yllanes
Propagation of an epidemic across a spatial network of communities is described by a variant of the SIR model accompanied by an intercommunity infectivity matrix. This matrix is estimated from fluxes between communities, obtained from cell-phone tracking data recorded in the USA between March 2020 and February 2021. We apply this model to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic by fitting just one global parameter representing the frequency of interaction between individuals. We find that the predicted infections agree reasonably well with the reported cases. We clearly see the effect of “shelter-in-place” policies introduced at the onset of the pandemic. Interestingly, a model with uniform transmission rates produces similar results, suggesting that the epidemic transmission was deeply influenced by air travel. We then study the effect of alternative mitigation policies, in particular restricting long-range travel. We find that this policy is successful in decreasing the epidemic size and slowing down the spread, but less effective than the shelter-in-place policy. This policy can result in a pulled wave of infections. We express its velocity and characterize the shape of the traveling front as a function of the epidemiological parameters. Finally, we discuss a policy of selectively constraining travel based on an edge-betweenness criterion.
