      Het is ideaal voor onder andere studenten van klinische technologie. Dit voorbeeld kan wat minderen beladen zijn, er wordt nu bijna gesuggereerd dat dit het meest voornamelijke gebruik voor is. Beter misschein algemeen maken zoals "handig voor opslaan van python resultaten". daarna kan een specifiek voorbeeld wel genoemd worden

    1. il n’y a aucune raison de parler de virtuel numérique pour une création qui utilise les pixels.

      distinction essentielle : le numérique n'est pas en soi du virtuel psychique

    2. près une période pendant laquelle les échanges médiatisés par les technologies numériques ont été facilement déclarés relever du virtuel,

      numérique n'est pas égal à virtuel

    3. Le danger de s’enfermer dans une relation virtuelle à ses objets a toujours existé, mais il est incontestablement aggravé par l’utilisation des technologies

      Le numérique augmente le risque de figer la relation dans le virtuel

    4. Le jeu pathologique, quand il existe chez le Hikikomori, ne serait donc pas la cause, mais la conséquence du retrait.

      usages numériques compensent un retrait déjà présent

    5. Ce phénomène n’a rien à voir avec les mondes numériques, même si le désinvestissement du monde concret peut entraîner secondairement un refuge dans les mondes virtuels (Tisseron, 2014).

      numérique n'est pas la cause du Hikikomori

    6. Il se retranche de l’obligation morale de comparer le monde tel qu’il l’anticipe au monde réel,

      retrait évite la responsabilité de l'action et de la transformation

    7. interrompt le va et vient entre les représentations anticipatrices du monde (le virtuel psychique) et la perception du monde.

      dynamique actualisation / visualisation bloquée

    8. ersonnes âgées de plus de douze ans qui passent la majeure partie de leur temps au domicile. Ils ne peuvent pas ou ne veulent pas avoir de vie sociale, comme aller à l’école ou travailler, et ils sont dans cette situation depuis plus de six mois.

      Retrait durable socialement et temporellement défini

    9. déconnecter – désarticuler – les attentes sur soi et le monde d’un côté, et les leçons de l’expérience de l’autre.

      Hikikomori correspond rupture entre virtuel et perceptif

    10. Mais ils sont forcément différents. D’où un conflit psychique douloureux,

      ecart entre attente et expérience est structurel et potentiellement conflictuel

    1. origine de cette addiction n’est pas à chercher dans le jeu lui-même

      Thèse centrale : ce n’est pas le numérique qui rend addict, mais la problématique interne

    2. conséquences de cet usage excessif du virtuel ne se font pas attendre : chute brutale des résultats scolaires, isolement, troubles du caractère, dégradation des relations avec les autres membres de la famille, troubles du sommeil, troubles des conduites alimentaires.

      consequences usages excessifs

    3. adolescents manifestent tous les signes d’une addiction à cette activité au point d’en perdre le goût pour toute autre forme de contact social ou tout investissement scolaire. Les relations intrafamiliales sont souvent très tendues : les parents, lorsqu’ils interviennent pour demander au joueur d’interrompre son jeu, se heurtent à de violentes réactions de leur adolescent qui manifeste ainsi une forte intolérance à la moindre frustration et la perte de toute notion de limite.

      conséquences usage excessifs

    4. Cet effet pervers (le jeu est pensé pour créer une addiction et donc faire en sorte qu’un joueur qui mord au jeu soit pris) se renforce du fait que tout est pensé pour que l’envie du joueur soit sans cesse stimulée et que le plaisir éprouvé s’obtienne relativement facilement et rapidement. Ainsi, pour certains, le jeu mobilise (ou immobilise) des heures durant.

      effet pervers des jeux par nature

    5. Il se trouve que la conception même de ces jeux, leurs mécanismes de fonctionnement sont pensés pour créer une certaine forme d’addiction : pour être performant, il faut de l’expérience et, plus on joue, meilleur on devient.

      Dispositifs incitatifs ≠ cause suffisante de l’addiction.

    6. la réalité virtuelle peut représenter pour certains adolescents un moyen de fuir le virtuel pubertaire qui est en eux et, provisoirement du moins, donner corps au refus de l’avènement de mutations définitives.

      refus du changement interne

    7. objet externe pouvant conduire à une forme de dépendance

      L’objet numérique comme prothèse psychique face à l’angoisse de séparation.

    8. cette double possibilité (le jeu ou la dépendance) est poussée à son paroxysme.

      L’adolescence amplifie les usages : période de vulnérabilité narcissique.

    9. statut proche de l’expérience transitionnelle telle que D. W. Winnicott l’a décrite

      Usage sain du virtuel = espace transitionnel (jeu, créativité, symbolisation).

    10. construction mentale du sujet immergé physiquement

      Le virtuel mobilise surtout le registre perceptif → illusion sensorielle ≠ confusion avec le réel

    11. La réalité virtuelle n’est donc pas une conquête récente

      Déconstruction du fantasme de nouveauté : le virtuel prolonge une histoire ancienne des images.

    12. registres de la créativité et de la destructivité,

      Idée clé : le numérique peut être créatif OU destructif → pas de déterminisme technologique.

    13. les supports numériques interrogent le rapport à l’environnement, à l’autre et à soi dans des termes totalement nouveaux

      Problématique centrale du devoir : le numérique modifie le rapport à soi, à l’autre et au réel → enjeu psychique, pas seulement technique.

      How Rosetta Stone unravelled the history of ancient Egypt?

      </center>

      Where was Rosetta Stone discovered? Where-was-Rosetta-Stone-discovered

      The Rosetta Stone, a pivotal artifact discovered in 1799, unlocked ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics through its trilingual inscription, sparking a race among scholars like Young and Champollion to decipher its secrets, ultimately revealing a vanished world. <center>

      Highlights

      </center>
      • Rosetta Stone was created during the reign of King Ptolemy V in ancient Egypt in 196 BCE and was eventually discovered by French engineers in 1799. This discovery played a crucial role in deciphering Egyptian hieroglyphics.
      • An artisan inscribed the "Memphis Decree on the stone, which grants tax exemptions to the priestly class, aiming to stabilize Ptolemy V's rule.
      • Fast forward to 1799, French military engineer Pierre Francois Bouchard discovers the stone while repairing a fort, unaware of its historical importance.
      The French Expedition included academics who recognized the significance of the stone's inscriptions, which would later be key to understanding ancient Egyptian writing. <center>

      How the scholars deciphered the script on Rosetta Stone

      </center>
      • After Napoleon abandoned the expedition, the scholars were left with the stone and a pressing need to disseminate its information despite military challenges.
      • The team devised a new method to capture the stone's inscriptions by using ink and paper, which proved successful.
      • Following the surrender of the French forces, the Rosetta Stone was claimed as a spoil of war by the British and eventually donated to the British Museum.
      • -
      • Despite initial expectations, matching the Greek text with hieroglyphics did not lead to immediate decipherment of ancient Egyptian.
      • The quest to decode the Rosetta Stone saw numerous attempts throughout history, culminating in significant breakthroughs by Thomas Young and Jean-François Champollion, who recognized the phonetic nature of hieroglyphics.- The misunderstanding of hieroglyphics persisted until the 1800s, despite efforts by medieval Muslim researchers.
      • Thomas Young made initial progress in translating the Rosetta Stone by focusing on the Demotic section and recognizing the phonetic writing of Greek names.</l>
      • Jean-François Champollion, a talented linguist who understood Coptic, began his own translation efforts and ultimately surpassed Young's work. He utilized various sources, including artifacts and inscriptions from Egypt, to further his understanding of hieroglyphics.

      Champollion's groundbreaking work

      Jean-François Champollion's groundbreaking work on deciphering Egyptian hieroglyphics using the Rosetta Stone highlights his struggles, rivalries, and eventual success in unlocking the secrets of ancient Egypt. He utilizes his knowledge of Coptic and previous research to reconstruct Egyptian royal names in cartouches, aiming to decode hieroglyphics. Despite facing rivalries and political challenges, Champollion perseveres in his studies, leading to a significant breakthrough in understanding hieroglyphics. In 1822, Champollion successfully read the name Thutmose from an inscription, confirming his theories and dramatically celebrating his discovery. Champollion's journey to Egypt allowed him to read inscriptions and uncover the history of ancient kings and common people, further solidifying his achievements.

    1. Les entreprises, et toutes les formes d’organisation, ont là l’occasion de pouvoir gagner en souplesse pour coller aux pratiques réelles

      La conclusion souligne les implications organisationnelles de l’apprentissage informel numérique, en invitant les entreprises à s’adapter aux pratiques réelles des professionnels.

    2. mis en évidence quatre modes informels d’apprentissage numérique

      Cette typologie permet de structurer et de mieux comprendre la diversité des pratiques d’apprentissage informel numérique.

    3. Dans un monde interconnecté, les possibilités d’apprentissage informel sont également démultipliées

      L’auteur met en évidence le rôle du numérique comme catalyseur des pratiques d’apprentissage informel.

    4. Une culture de l’apprentissage tout au long de la vie ou du « lifelong learning »

      Ce passage inscrit l’apprentissage informel numérique dans une logique plus large d’apprentissage continu tout au long de la vie.

    5. A une époque où l’obsolescence des compétences est de plus en plus rapide

      L’auteur montre ici que l’apprentissage informel répond à un besoin d’adaptation continue face à l’évolution rapide des compétences professionnelles.

    6. les situations traditionnelles (off-the-job learning) et formelles d’apprentissage (c’est-à-dire les canaux des formations officielles et/ou certifiantes) ne représentent que 10 % du temps d’apprentissage, contre 90 % pour les temps d’apprentissage informels,

      Ce résultat remet en question la place centrale accordée aux formations formelles, en soulignant le poids majoritaire de l’apprentissage informel.

    7. Bandura explore les phénomènes de mimétisme, où les individus apprennent en observant ou en écoutant les autres,

      La référence à Bandura ancre l’apprentissage informel dans des théories reconnues de l’apprentissage social.

    8. Il n’est pas nouveau que les salariés se forment par eux-mêmes au quotidien

      Ce passage permet de relativiser la nouveauté du phénomène en montrant que le numérique amplifie des pratiques d’apprentissage déjà existantes.

    9. un peu plus d’un salarié sur deux avait recours à l’apprentissage numérique informel pour développer ses compétences au travail.

      L’auteur s’appuie ici sur des données empiriques pour objectiver l’importance de l’apprentissage informel numérique dans le monde professionnel.

    10. Pour développer leurs compétences, les professionnels ont de plus en plus recours à ces modes d’apprentissage informel numérique.

      Ce passage introduit l’idée centrale de l’article en montrant que l’apprentissage informel numérique occupe une place croissante dans le développement des compétences professionnelles.

    1. Я впервые понял, что для человеческой интуиции есть качественная разница между «Невозможно» и «Шансы очень малы, но их стоит учитывать». Это можно увидеть и на Overcoming Bias в обсуждении «Новой Улучшенной Лотереи», где один пользователь написал: «Между нулевыми шансами на выигрыш и шансами, равными эпсилону, существует большая разница». На что я ответил: «Нет, не большая — порядок этой величины примерно равен эпсилону. Если вы в этом сомневаетесь, возьмите за эпсилон один, делённое на гуголплекс».

      Описываемые примеры скорее описалбы "невозможно" вернее шансы настолько малы что их НЕ стоит даже пытаться учитывать.

      Наверное в этом и был в свое время фурор концепции нуля, что "ничто" может быть чемто", и до сихпор стандартная настройка что "невозможно" ощущается как ничто по шансам, хотя математически практичиски ничто и практически никогда не бывает 0% и 100%, максимум может к ним стремиться.

      Можно попробовть учитывать порядки нулей после запятой, и тип связей в комбинаторике, чтобы или учесть в принципе весомой пещинки или отбросить вообще приняв для простоты максиму "невозможно"

      Факт это гипотезы сомнения в которых находятся за гранью разумных сомнений.

    1. un nombre croissant d’études pointe vers la nécessité d’un enseignement explicite de cette compétence à l’école,

      La conclusion réaffirme la thèse défendue dans l’article : seule une formation explicite et structurée permet de développer durablement les compétences d’évaluation de l’information

    2. Il n’existe pas de recette miracle

      Cette phrase nuance le débat en rappelant que l’éducation à l’évaluation de l’information repose sur des dispositifs progressifs et structurés.

    3. elle est inefficace pour l’apprentissage de l’évaluation de l’information

      L’auteur adopte ici une position critique en montrant que certaines méthodes largement utilisées à l’école manquent d’efficacité pédagogique.

    4. le manque de consignes explicites de la part de l’enseignant,

      Ce passage montre que les difficultés des élèves ne relèvent pas uniquement de leurs capacités, mais aussi du cadre pédagogique proposé.

    5. la quasi-totalité des participants ne prête pas attention à la source des informations

      Ce résultat de recherche souligne un problème majeur : les élèves évaluent le contenu sans questionner l’origine ni les intérêts des sources.

    6. les élèves se laissent influencer très facilement par des indices superficiels

      L’auteur met en évidence ici les limites des compétences informationnelles des élèves, même après plusieurs années de scolarité.

    7. le fait de trouver des mots-clés de la requête dans le titre de l’article augmente beaucoup les chances que l’élève considère l’article comme pertinent

      Cet exemple montre que les élèves s’appuient souvent sur des indices superficiels pour évaluer l’information, ce qui peut conduire à des erreurs d’interprétation.

    8. Ces compétences posent de nombreux défis aux internautes et interrogent le rôle de l’école.

      Ce passage met en évidence la controverse centrale : face à la complexité de l’évaluation de l’information, l’école est-elle en mesure de former efficacement les élèves ?

    9. rend tout un chacun vulnérable à la désinformation.

      L’auteur souligne ici que la désinformation ne concerne pas seulement certains publics, mais l’ensemble des citoyens exposés aux contenus numériques.

    10. l’évaluation de l’information sur Internet est aujourd’hui un enjeu majeur pour notre société

      Ce passage introduit clairement l’enjeu central de l’article en montrant que l’évaluation de l’information est devenue une compétence essentielle dans un contexte de désinformation numérique.

    1. Conclusion

      Muy buena la conclusión. Solamente dos comentarios: 1.- me hace un poco de ruido definir como neutralización de clase el hecho de que estas condiciones objetivas no logren predecir pension mjp. Siguiendo la idea, me referiría más bien a un patrón generalizado de creencias entre clases 2.- En el párrafo de trabajos futuros mencionaría integrar nuevas mediciones de meritocracia (Castillo et al., 2023) en los estudios, pues se podrían develar otras configuraciones de creencias entre mjp y merit que la escala actual no permite observar

      Reply to the reviewers

      1. General Statements

      We thank the reviewers for their overall support, thorough review, and thoughtful comments. The points raised were all warranted and we feel that addressing them has improved the quality of our manuscript. Below we respond to each of the points raised.

      2. Point-by-point description of the revisions

      Reviewer #1

      Minor comments:

      Are the lgl-1; pac-1 M-Z- double mutants dead? Only the phenotype of pac-1(M-Z-); lgl-1 (M+Z-) is shown. In figures and text throughout, it should be clear whether mutants are referring to zygotic loss or both maternal and zygotic loss, as this distinction could have major implications on the interpretation of experiments.

      Almost all experiments we performed used a combination of RNAi of lgl-1 in a homozygous pac-1 null mutant background, or the other way around. RNAi should eliminate maternal product, but we hesitate to use the terminology M/Z since it has previously been used for protein degradation strategies.

      We have updated the text and figure 1 to address the potential of maternal product masking earlier phenotypes, and performed additional RNAi experiments to demonstrate that the phenotypes obtained by RNAi for either pac-1 or lgl-1 in a homozygous mutant background for the other are the same as for the genetic double mutant. The results are shown as additional images and quantifications in figure 1B,C. We also updated the legend to figure 1 to make it clear that double genetic mutants are obtained from heterozygous lgl-1/+ parents.

      Regarding the phenotype of lgl-1; pac-1 M-Z- double mutants: assuming the reviewer refers to M-Z- double genetic mutants, we cannot make such embryos as the pac-1(M-Z-); lgl-1(M+Z-) animals are already lethal.

      In Figure 1C, it would be more appropriate to show a fully elongated WT embryo to contrast with arrested elongation in mutant embryos.

      We agree with the reviewer and have replaced the 2-fold WT embryo with a 3-fold embryo.

      Is the lateral spread of DLG-1 in double mutant embryos a result of failure to polarize DLG-1, or failure to maintain polarity? This should be straightforward to address in higher time resolution movies.

      We have analyzed additional embryos at early stages of development. In lgl-1; pac-1 embryos we never see the appearance of complete junctions: defects are apparent already at dorsal intercalation. We interpret these results as a failure to properly polarize DLG-1. We have added additional images to Figure S2 and added this sentence to the text: Imaging of embryos from early stages of development on showed that normal continuous junctional DLG-1 bands are never established in pac-1(RNAi); lgl-1(mib201) embryos (Fig. S2B).

      The lack of enhancement of hmp-1(fe4) by lgl-1(RNAi) is quite interesting, given that pac-1 does enhance hmp-1(fe4). To rule out the possibility that this result stems from incomplete lgl-1 RNAi, this experiment should be repeated using the lgl-1 null mutant.

      We have done this experiment by recreating the fe4 S823F mutation in the lgl-1(null) mutant background as well as in the wild-type CGC1 background using CRISPR/Cas9. The phenotype of both was similar, but differs from that of the original PE97 strain. In the original strain, there is ~50% embryonic lethality but worms that complete embryogenesis grow up to be fertile adults. In our new "fe4" strains, nearly all animals are severely malformed with little to no elongation taking place. We are able to maintain both strains (with and without lgl-1) homozygous but with difficulty as only ~5% of animals grow up and give progeny. Apparently, there are genetic differences between PE97 and our CGC1 background that cause phenotypic differences despite having the same amino acid change in HMP-1.

      Nevertheless, using our original embryonic viability criterium of 'hatching', loss of lgl-1 does not enhance the S823F mutation. We have included the following text in the manuscript:

      To rule out that the lack of enhancement by lgl-1(RNAi) is due to incomplete inactivation of lgl-1, we also re-created the hmp-1(fe4) mutation (S823F) by CRISPR in lgl-1(mib201) mutant animals and wild-type controls. The phenotype of the S823F mutant we created is more severe than that of the original PE97 hmp-1(fe4) strain, with only ~5% of animals becoming fertile adults (Fig. S2F). This likely represents the presence of compensatory changes that have accumulated over time in PE97. Nevertheless, consistent with our RNAi results, the presence of lgl-1(mib201) did not further exacerbate the phenotype of HMP-1(S823F) (Fig. S2E, F). Taken together, the lack of enhancement of hmp-1(S823F) mutants by inactivation of loss of lgl-1 This observation argues against a primary role for lgl-1 in regulating cell junctions.

      • Related to point 4, do pac-1 or lgl-1 null mutants enhance partial knockdown of junction protein DLG-1, or is this effect (of pac-1) specific to HMP-1/AJs?*

      We have attempted to address this point using feeding RNAi against dlg-1. However, we were not able to obtain partial depletion of DLG-1. On RNAi feeding plates, control, pac-1, and lgl-1 animals did not show significant embryonic lethality. We checked RNAi effectiveness with a DLG-1::mCherry strain and found RNAi by feeding to be very ineffective. Since we could not deplete DLG-1 to a level that results in partial embryonic lethality, we were not able to address this question properly.

      Does lgl-1 loss affect PAC-1 protein localization and vice versa?

      It does not. We have added the following text and a figure panel: Loss-of-function mutants that strongly enhance a phenotype are often interpreted as acting in parallel pathways. We therefore examined whether loss of lgl-1 or pac-1 alters the localization of endogenously GFP-tagged LGL-1 or PAC-1. In neither null background did we detect changes in the subcellular localization of the other protein, consistent with LGL-1 and PAC-1 functioning in parallel pathways (Fig. S1D).

      Reviewer #2

      Very little of the imaging data are analyzed quantitatively, and in many cases it is not clear how many embryos were analyzed. While the images that are presented show clear defects, readers cannot determine how reproducible, strong or significant the phenotypes are.

      We completely agree with the reviewer that interpretation of our data requires this information and apologize for the omission in the first manuscript version. The phenotypes are highly penetrant and consistent (timing of arrest, % lethality, junctional defects), and we have now added quantifications throughout the manuscript.

      In particular, the data below should be quantified and, where possible, analyzed statistically:

      • The frequency of the various junctional phenotypes shown in 2C

      We have now quantified the junctional phenotypes. The junctional defects are highly penetrant: >90% of lgl-1; pac-1 embryos have junctional defects (new Fig. 2B). We used airy-scan confocal imaging to analyze the distribution of the different phenotypes (unaffected, spread laterally, and ring-like pattern). The results are shown in Fig. 2G.

      • The expansion of DLG-1::mCherry in pac-1 lgl-1 embryos should be quantified (related to Figure 2B). For example, the percentage of membrane (marked by PH::GFP) occupied by DLG-1 could be quantified.

      We have performed this quantification, shown in Fig. 2D.

      - Similarly, the expansion of the aPKC domain should be quantified (Figure 3A).

      An objective quantification of aPKC signal is difficult due to the relatively weak expression of aPKC::GFP and the lack of a clear demarcating boundary. This is part of the reason we measured tortuosity as a more quantifyable indicator of apical domain expansion. We have now added a qualitative observation table as Figure 3B. In addition, we have expanded the quantification of cell geometry by measuring lateral and basal surfaces. Lateral surfaces were decreased. We added the following text:

      To better understand the reason for the change in geometry, we also measured the lengths of the lateral and basal surfaces (Fig. 3F). We found that the absolute lengths of the apical surfaces were not significantly different between pac-1(RNAi); lgl-1(mib201) and control animals. Instead, the lengths of the lateral domain were reduced (Fig. 3F). Hence, the more dome-shaped appearance of epidermal cells in pac-1; lgl-1 double mutant animals is due to a decrease in lateral domain size, which is consistent with the observed lateral spreading of aPKC.

      • How many embryos were analyzed for each marker shown in Figure 2A, and what proportion showed the described phenotypes? This could be given in the text or in a panel.

      We have added these numbers to panel 2B, and indicated the percentage in the text.

      • The frequency of the various junctional phenotypes shown in 4F.

      To address this, we have changed figure 4F to show three types of phenotype (strong, mild, no phenotype) and added how frequently we observed each to the panels. In rescue experiments, 18/24 embryos showed no junctional defects, while 6/24 showed a mild defect (compared to 100% severe in non-rescued embryos). To make room for this and other quantifications in Figure 4, we moved the demonstration that PAC-1 is depleted by RNAi to supplemental figure S4.

      Because the genetic perturbations used are global (either deletions or RNAi), it is not established whether PAC-1/LGL-1 act in epidermal epithelial cells per se (versus an earlier requirement that manifests in epidermal epithelial cells). While I agree that this is the most likely scenario, other mechanisms are possible.

      Our experiments indeed use global depletion/deletion of lgl-1 and pac-1. We cannot exclude therefore that other tissues do not contribute to the epithelial phenotypes. We assume that other tissues would be affected as well, and in fact have observed abnormal looking pharynx tissue (see our response to reviewer 3 below for examples). As the epidermis is one of the first tissue to develop it is likely the first in which phenotypes become apparent.

      In particular, the overall GFP::aPKC levels appear notably higher in pac-1 lgl-1 embryos in Figure 3A. aPKC levels should be quantified to determine if this is true of pac-1 lgl-1 embryos. If so, couldn't that explain (or at least contribute to) the observed phenotypes?

      Overall higher levels could indeed contribute to the phenotype. However, we have now quantified total aPKC levels in control and pac-1; lgl-1 embryos found no difference between them. We have added the following text to the manuscript: To determine if increased expression of aPKC might explain the broadened apical localization, we measured total intensity levels of aPKC::GFP. However, we detected no differences in fluorescence levels between control and pac-1(RNAi); lgl-1(mib201) animals (Fig. S3B, C).

      Minor

      Figure 4: For completeness, please include the embryonic viability of pac-1 lgl-1 +/- embryos treated with EV and cdc-42(RNAi), as was done for pac-1 lgl-1 pkc-3(ts) in Figure 4E. Presumably the increased proportion of viable embryos with the lgl-1 deletion allele is reflected in an overall increase in embryonic viability.

      The embryonic viability indeed increases, but not as much as one might think because 15% of embryos die from the cdc-42 RNAi itself. The most important rescue argument is that we can obtain adult pac-1; lgl-1 animals with cdc-42 RNAi.

      We have now included the overall rescue and the following text: Overall, cdc-42 RNAi caused a mild increase in embryonic viability (Fig. 4A). However, total embryonic viability may underestimate rescue of pac-1; lgl-1 embryonic lethality, because it also includes the ~15% lethality caused by cdc-42 inactivation itself, even among animals wild type for lgl-1.

      The orientation of the inset images in Figures 2C, 3A and 3D is confusing. An illustration showing how these images are oriented relative to each other would be helpful.

      We have added a figure showing how the junctions are oriented in the figures (Fig. 2E). We have also added supplemental videos S3 and S4 that should illustrate the phenotype more clearly as well.

      For completeness, it would be good to test whether lgl-1(delta) is also synthetically lethal with picc-1(RNAi) (Zilberman 2017).

      We like this idea and had already looked into this. Lgl-1 and picc-1 are not synthetic lethal (see graph in word file submitted). However, PICC-1 is not the only junctional localization signal for PAC-1, as demonstrated by the Nance lab. We find the data interesting but feel that it deserves a more thorough structure/function investigation of PAC-1 than we can provide here. Therefore we would prefer not to include this data.

      Reviewer #3

      We thank the reviewer for their support of our manuscript.

      A few small areas to improve this manuscript:

      p. 6 like 139: "remain" should be "remaining"

      We have fixed this typo.

      Could the authors mention what is the phenotype of the 10% of pac-1 animals that die?

      Yes. They die with pleotropic phenotypes not resembling those of our pac-1; lgl-1 double mutant embryos. We have added examples of these to Figure S1.

      Based on the Supplemental figures, it made me curious to ask: Did the authors notice changes in dorsal epidermal fusions? Cadherin normally disappears in the dorsal hyp7 cells at this time. Did the timing of the fusions change at all?

      We haven't analyzed this in detail but our time-lapse videos show that dorsal fusions still take place and do not seem to be particularly delayed (overall development is slightly delayed but the delay in fusion is consistent with overall delay).

      Again, curiosity driven by the Supplemental figures: did the authors notice defects in apical regions of internal organs, like the pharynx or intestine? The CDC-42 biosensor is asymmetrical in the developing intestine. See: DOI: 10.1242/bio.056911

      We did not pay much attention to the intestine as PAC-1 is barely detectable in this tissue. The pharynx is formed, which we can easily detect in arrested embryos as we use GFP or BFP expressed under the myo-2 promoter to mark the deletion of pac-1. While we did not look closely, we do observe defects in pharynx development.

      Evidence, reproducibility and clarity

      This manuscript by Jarosinska and colleagues addresses a long-standing mystery in the apical/basal polarity field: why LGL-1 and PAC-1/RhoGAP19D, which are essential in Drosophila, and in some tissue culture contexts, are not essential in C. elegans embryos.

      The authors take an open-ended approach by using genetics, in the form of a genome wide RNAi screen, to find other proteins that enhance the mild phenotypes of lgl-1 mutant embryos. They uncover strong synthetic lethality when they reduce pac-1, a well-documented CDC-42 GAP that supports apical/basal polarity during early embryogenesis, and yet is also only partially required during embryogenesis.

      The phenotypic analysis to understand why the embryos die when missing both lgl-1 and pac-1 leads to a careful analysis of known junctional molecules in C. elegans. Using newly made endogenously tagged junctional proteins, including DLG-1 and AFD, so that they can examine all three C. elegans apical junction complexes, the authors find a penetrant defect in the epidermal junctions as the embryos undergo elongation, an actomyosin dependent contractile event that dramatically reshapes the embryos into long, skinny tubes. With disorganized junctions, the embryos die due to ruptures, or hernias, as shown in the Supplemental Movie 2. In addition, and quite excitingly, the apical domains of the embryos are expanded. These defects are then partially rescued by removing CDC-42 or aPKC using RNAi depletion.

      Major comments:

      The claims and conclusions are supported by the data.

      The data is presented in such a way that it is easy to understand what was done, and how measurements were obtained and evaluated.

      Rigorous documentation of how the strains were built and how the genome wide RNAi screen was conducted is included in the Supplemental files.

      Beautiful use of CRISPR to do the genetics:

      since when they made the deletion of lgl-1 they replaced the coding sequence with GFP, they could use GFP to count the animals carrying the deletion in their double mutant analysis with pac-1 deletion mutants.

      Figures are very nicely done.

      The writing is clear.

      Significance

      This study raises interesting and important questions for the general polarity field. Early embryos have hugely redundant methods to maintain apical/basal polarity, which in C. elegans masked the roles for lgl-1 and pac-1 at earlier events, like compaction, when apical/basal polarity is first established. However, during elongation, when healthy strong junctions are a requirement, the double mutant loss of LGL-1 and PAC-1 results in expanded apical domain, that is lethal.

      The study will be of interest to the broader polarity community, and to developmental biologist interested in how the apical junctions are assembled and strengthened during morphogenesis. The Discussion does a good job of showing what aspects of this study are novel, and which support prior findings that suggested, for example, that PAC-1 may have roles independent of CDC-42. I appreciate the comment that our field needs more and more sensitive biosensors to fully address the changes of key polarity regulators.

      Evidence, reproducibility and clarity

      Summary: This study focuses on the polarization of epidermal epithelial cells in C. elegans. Whereas the basolateral polarity protein is LGL-1 is required for epithelial polarity in flies, LGL-1 is dispensable for polarization and viability in C. elegans. Through a whole-genome RNAi screen, Jarosinska et al discover that the depletion of the RhoGAP PAC-1 is synthetically lethal with an lgl-1 deletion mutant. pac-1 lgl-1 double mutants have significant polarity defects in the epidermal epithelial, including mislocalization of junctional markers and expansion of the apical aPKC domain. As a result pac-1 lgl-1 double mutants fail to maintain surface epithelial and arrest development. Genetic interaction data suggest that increased CDC42 and aPKC activity in pac-1 lgl-1 contributes, as least in part, to the polarity defects and resulting embryonic lethality.

      Major comments:

      Very little of the imaging data are analyzed quantitatively, and in many cases it is not clear how many embryos were analyzed. While the images that are presented show clear defects, readers cannot determine how reproducible, strong or significant the phenotypes are. In particular, the data below should be quantified and, where possible, analyzed statistically:

      • The frequency of the various junctional phenotypes shown in 2C
      • The expansion of DLG-1::mCherry in pac-1 lgl-1 embryos should be quantified(related to Figure 2B). For example, the percentage of membrane (marked by PH::GFP) occupied by DLG-1 could be quantified.
      • Similarly, the expansion of the aPKC domain should be quantified (Figure 3A).
      • How many embryos were analyzed for each marker shown in Figure 2A, and what proportion showed the described phenotypes? This could be given in the text or in a panel.
      • The frequency of the various junctional phenotypes shown in 4F.

      Because the genetic perturbations used are global (either deletions or RNAi), it is not established whether PAC-1/LGL-1 act in epidermal epithelial cells per se (versus an earlier requirement that manifests in epidermal epithelial cells). While I agree that this is the most likely scenario, other mechanisms are possible. In particular, the overall GFP::aPKC levels appear notably higher in pac-1 lgl-1 embryos in Figure 3A. aPKC levels should be quantified to determine if this is true of pac-1 lgl-1 embryos. If so, couldn't that explain (or at least contribute to) the observed phenotypes?

      Figure 4: For completeness, please include the embryonic viability of pac-1 lgl-1 +/- embryos treated with EV and cdc-42(RNAi), as was done for pac-1 lgl-1 pkc-3(ts) in Figure 4E. Presumably the increased proportion of viable embryos with the lgl-1 deletion allele is reflected in an overall increase in embryonic viability.

      The orientation of the inset images in Figures 2C, 3A and 3D is confusing. An illustration showing how these images are oriented relative to each other would be helpful.

      For completeness, it would be good to test whether lgl-1(delta) is also synthetically lethal with picc-1(RNAi) (Zilberman 2017).

      Significance

      LGL-1 is a conserved polarity protein that is essential for viability in Drosophila. In contrast, lgl-1 mutants are viable and have weak polarity phenotypes in C. elegans. A previous study showed that LGL-1 acts redundantly with the posterior polarity proteins PAR-2 during establishment of anterior/posterior polarity in the one-cell worm embryo. Here, Jarosinska et al show that LGL-1 acts redundantly with another protein, the RhoGAP protein PAC-1, in the polarization of the embryonic epidermal epithelial. The strength of this study is the identification of redundant roles for PAC-1 and LGL-1, the apparent strength of the polarity defects in the double mutant and the broader implication that LGL-1 may act in a range of redundant, cell/tissue specific pathways to regulate polarity. The primary weakness of this study is the lack of quantification. Additionally, the aPKC and CDC42 genetic interaction data hint at potential pathways, but fall short of establishing LGL-1's or PAC-1's mechanism of action.

      Advance: This works identifies a redundant genetic interaction between LGL-1 and PAC-1. While the data require additional quantification, the phenotypes presented appear clear and strong. Although the molecular mechanism by which LGL-1 and PAC-1 act is not well established in the current work, the core observation is significant and should provide a foundation for future studies dissecting the molecular mechanisms.

      Audience: This work will be of interest to a broad audience. LGL-1 is conserved and its role in cell polarization and epithelial polarity is very actively studied, including in mammalian systems.

      Referee #1

      Evidence, reproducibility and clarity

      In this manuscript, Jarosinska and colleagues address the roles of two polarity regulators, pac-1 and lgl-1, in C. elegans epidermal polarity. Loss of function mutations in either of these gene individually does not block polarization, but through a genome-wide RNAi screen, the authors find that pac-1 and lgl-1 enhance each other to cause apical-basal polarity defects and arrest during epidermal morphogenesis. The remainder of the paper focuses on testing genetic interactions between both proteins and AJ proteins (HMP-1) as well as apical proteins (CDC-42, PKC-3). These experiments reveal some interesting differences in how lgl-1 and pac-1 interface with junctional proteins (pac-1 enhances hmp-1 but lgl-1 does not) and apical proteins (lgl-1 suppresses pkc-3 or cdc-42 partial loss but pac-1 does not).

      Minor comments:

      1. Are the lgl-1; pac-1 M-Z- double mutants dead? Only the phenotype of pac-1(M-Z-); lgl-1 (M+Z-) is shown. In figures and text throughout, it should be clear whether mutants are referring to zygotic loss or both maternal and zygotic loss, as this distinction could have major implications on the interpretation of experiments.
      2. In Figure 1C, it would be more appropriate to show a fully elongated WT embryo to contrast with arrested elongation in mutant embryos.
      3. Is the lateral spread of DLG-1 in double mutant embryos a result of failure to polarize DLG-1, or failure to maintain polarity? This should be straightforward to address in higher time resolution movies.
      4. The lack of enhancement of hmp-1(fe4) by lgl-1(RNAi) is quite interesting, given that pac-1 does enhance hmp-1(fe4). To rule out the possibility that this result stems from incomplete lgl-1 RNAi, this experiment should be repeated using the lgl-1 null mutant.
      5. Related to point 4, do pac-1 or lgl-1 null mutants enhance partial knockdown of junction protein DLG-1, or is this effect (of pac-1) specific to HMP-1/AJs?
      6. Does lgl-1 loss affect PAC-1 protein localization and vice versa?

      Significance

      Overall, the manuscript provides additional insights into apical-basal polarization in C. elegans and demonstrates that lgl-1 is likely working in a similar way as in Drosophila, despite the lack of a phenotype in single lgl-1 mutants. I found the experiments to be done rigorously and interpretations of the data appropriate. All of my suggestions on improving the manuscript are minor; suggested experiments should be viewed as optional ways to strengthen the conclusions/impact of the study.

    1. Kuhn’s view

      Thomas Kuhn’s view of scientific change is that science does not progress smoothly or simply by accumulating facts. Instead, it advances through periodic revolutions that transform how scientists understand the world.

    1. Ontwerp van nieuw te plaatsen objecten, ofwel bestaande objecten die een "bewerking" moeten ondergaan. De status N komt in het experiment niet voor.

      Deze beschrijving begrijp ik niet. Nieuw te plaatsen objecten zijn dus ontworpen, maar nog niet gerealiseerd. In dat geval behoren ze toch niet tot de revisietekening?

    2. Herkenning van bestaande objecten uit het assetinformatiesysteem is op dit moment niet mogelijk met NLCS tekeningen

      Vraag: geldt dat ook als de object-id's van de bestaande objecten overgenomen wordt in de CAD tekeningen en de workflow tot en met de revisietekening?

      IN 6.1.3.3 worden de statussen in de NLCS revisietekening benoemd. Daarmee kunnen deze objecten toch herkend worden?

    1. eLife Assessment

      This important study demonstrates the significance of incorporating biological constraints in training neural networks to develop models that make accurate predictions under novel conditions. By comparing standard sigmoid recurrent neural networks (RNNs) with biologically constrained RNNs, the manuscript offers compelling evidence that biologically grounded inductive biases enhance generalization to perturbed conditions. This manuscript will appeal to a wide audience in systems and computational neuroscience.

    2. Reviewer #1 (Public review):

      This manuscript introduces a biologically informed RNN (bioRNN) that predicts the effects of optogenetic perturbations in both synthetic and in vivo datasets. By comparing standard sigmoid RNNs (σRNNs) and bioRNNs, the authors make a compelling case that biologically grounded inductive biases improve generalization to perturbed conditions. This work is innovative, technically strong, and grounded in relevant neuroscience, particularly the pressing need for data-constrained models that generalize causally.

      Comments on revisions:

      The authors have addressed all my concerns.

    3. Reviewer #2 (Public review):

      Sourmpis et al. present a study in which the importance of including certain inductive biases in the fitting of recurrent networks is evaluated with respect to the generalization ability of the networks when exposed to untrained perturbations.

      The work proceeds in three stages:

      (i) a simple illustration of the problem is made. Two reference (ground-truth) networks with qualitatively different connectivity, but similar observable network dynamics, are constructed, and recurrent networks with varying aspects of design similarity to the reference networks are trained to reproduce the reference dynamics. The activity of these trained networks during untrained perturbations is then compared to the activity of the perturbed reference networks. It is shown that, of the design characteristics that were varied, the enforced sign (Dale's law) and locality (spatial extent) of efference were especially important.

      (ii) The intuition from the constructed example is then extended to networks that have been trained to reproduce certain aspects of multi-region neural activity recorded from mice during a detection task with a working-memory component. A similar pattern is demonstrated, in which enforcing the sign and locality of efference in the fitted networks has an influence on the ability of the trained networks to predict aspects of neural activity during unseen (untrained) perturbations.

      (iii) The authors then illustrate the relationship between the gradient of the motor readout of trained networks with respect to the net inputs to the network units, and the sensitivity of the motor readout to small perturbations of the input currents to the units, which (in vivo) could be controlled optogenetically. The paper is concluded with a proposed use for trained networks, in which the models could be analyzed to determine the most sensitive directions of the network and, during online monitoring, inform a targeted optogenetic perturbation to bias behavior.

      The authors do not overstate their claims, and in general, I find that I agree with their conclusions.

    4. Author response:

      The following is the authors’ response to the original reviews.

      Public Reviews:

      Reviewer #1 (Public review)

      Major:

      (1) In line 76, the authors make a very powerful statement: 'σRNN simulation achieves higher similarity with unseen recorded trials before perturbation, but lower than the bioRNN on perturbed trials.' I couldn't find a figure showing this. This might be buried somewhere and, in my opinion, deserves some spotlight - maybe a figure or even inclusion in the abstract.

      We agree with the reviewer that these results are important. The failure of σRNN on perturbed data could be inferred from the former Figures 1E, 2C-E, and 3D. Following the reviewers' comments, we have tried to make this the most prominent message of Figure 1, in particular with the addition of the new panel E. We also moved Table 1 from the  Supplementary to the main text to highlight this quantitatively. 

      (2) It's mentioned in the introduction (line 84) and elsewhere (e.g., line 259) that spiking has some advantage, but I don't see any figure supporting this claim. In fact, spiking seems not to matter (Figure 2C, E). Please clarify how spiking improves performance, and if it does not, acknowledge that. Relatedly, in line 246, the authors state that 'spiking is a better metric but not significant' when discussing simulations. Either remove this statement and assume spiking is not relevant, or increase the number of simulations.

      We could not find the exact quote from the reviewer, and we believe that he intended to quote “spiking is better on all metrics, but without significant margins”. Indeed, spiking did not improve the fit significantly on perturbed trials, this is particularly true in comparison with the benefits of Dale’s law and local inhibition. As suggested by the reviewer, we rephrased the sentence from this quote and more generally the corresponding paragraphs in the intro (lines 83-87) and in the results (lines 245-271). Our corrections in the results sections are also intended to address the minor point (4) raised by the same reviewer.

      (3) The authors prefer the metric of predicting hits over MSE, especially when looking at real data (Figure 3). I would bring the supplementary results into the main figures, as both metrics are very nicely complementary. Relatedly, why not add Pearson correlation or R2, and not just focus on MSE Loss?

      In Figure 3 for the in-vivo data, we do not have simultaneous electrophysiological recordings and optogenetic stimulation in this dataset.  The two are performed on different recording sessions. Therefore, we can only compare the effect of optogenetics on the behavior, and we cannot compute Pearson correlation or R2 of the perturbed network activity. To avoid ambiguity, we wrote “For the sessions of the in vivo dataset with optogenetic perturbation that we considered, only the behavior of an animal is recorded” on line 294. 

      (4) I really like the 'forward-looking' experiment in closed loop! But I felt that the relevance of micro perturbations is very unclear in the intro and results. This could be better motivated: why should an experimentalist care about this forward-looking experiment? Why exactly do we care about micro perturbation (e.g., in contrast to non-micro perturbation)? Relatedly, I would try to explain this in the intro without resorting to technical jargon like 'gradients'.

      As suggested, we updated the last paragraph of the introduction (lines 88 - 95) to give better motivation for why algorithmically targeted acute spatio-temporal perturbations can be important to dissect the function of neural circuits. We also added citations to recent studies with targeted in vivo optogenetic stimulation. As far as we know the existing previous work targeted network stimulation mostly using linear models, while we used non-linear RNNs and their gradients.

      Minor:

      (1) In the intro, the authors refer to 'the field' twice. Personally, I find this term odd. I would opt for something like 'in neuroscience'.

      We implemented the suggested change: l.27 and l.30

      (2) Line 45: When referring to previous work using data-constrained RNN models, Valente et al. is missing (though it is well cited later when discussing regularization through low-rank constraints)

      We added the citation: l.45

      (3) Line 11: Method should be methods (missing an 's').

      We fixed the typo.

      (4) In line 250, starting with 'So far', is a strange choice of presentation order. After interpreting the results for other biological ingredients, the authors introduce a new one. I would first introduce all ingredients and then interpret. It's telling that the authors jump back to 2B after discussing 2C.

      We restructured the last two paragraphs of section 2.1, and we hope that the presentation order is now more logical.

      (5) The black dots in Figure 3E are not explained, or at least I couldn't find an explanation.

      We added an explanation in the caption of Figure 3E.

      Reviewer #2 (Public review):

      (1) Some aspects of the methods are unclear. For comparisons between recurrent networks trained from randomly initialized weights, I would expect that many initializations were made for each model variant to be compared, and that the performance characteristics are constructed by aggregating over networks trained from multiple random initializations. I could not tell from the methods whether this was done or how many models were aggregated.

      The expectation of the reviewer is correct, we trained multiple models with different random seeds (affecting both the weight initialization and the noise of our model) for each variant and aggregated the results. We have now clarified this in Methods 4.6. lines 658-662.

      (2) It is possible that including perturbation trials in the training sets would improve model performance across conditions, including held-out (untrained) perturbations (for instance, to units that had not been perturbed during training). It could be noted that if perturbations are available, their use may alleviate some of the design decisions that are evaluated here.

      In general, we agree with the reviewer that including perturbation trials in the training set would likely improve model performance across conditions. One practical limitation explaining partially why we did not do it with our dataset is the small quantity of perturbed trials for each targeted cortical area: the number of trials with light perturbations is too scarce to robustly train and test our models.

      More profoundly, to test hard generalizations to perturbations (aka perturbation testing), it will always be necessary that the perturbations are not trivially represented in the training data. Including perturbation trials during training would compromise our main finding: some biological model constraints improve the generalization to perturbation. To test this claim, it was necessary to keep the perturbations out of the training data.

      We agree that including all available data of perturbed and non-perturbed recordings would be useful to build the best generalist predictive system. It could help, for instance, for closed-loop circuit control as we studied in Figure 5. Yet, there too, it will be important for the scientific validation process to always keep some causal perturbations of interest out of the training set. This is necessary to fairly measure the real generalization capability of any model. Importantly, this is why we think out-of-distribution “perturbation testing” is likely to have a recurring impact in the years to come, even beyond the case of optogenetic inactivation studied in detail in our paper.

      Recommendation for the authors:

      Reviewer #1 (Recommendation for the authors):

      The code is not very easy to follow. I know this is a lot to ask, but maybe make clear where the code is to train the different models, which I think is a great contribution of this work? I predict that many readers will want to use the code and so this will improve the impact of this work.

      We updated the code to make it easier to train a model from scratch.

      Reviewer #2 (Recommendation for the authors):

      The figures are really tough to read. Some of that small font should be sized up, and it's tough to tell in the posted paper what's happening in Figure 2B.

      We updated Figures 1 and 2 significantly, in part to increase their readability. We also implemented the "Superficialities" suggestions.
