Smart Denture with Embedded Thin‐Film Temperature Sensors Patterned by Femtosecond Laser Pulse for Elderly Healthcare

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
We demonstrate the direct‐laser patterning of a gold thin film on polymethyl methacrylate to fabricate a temperature sensor for dentures. The temperature sensor‐embedded smart dentures are evaluated in an oral environment, enabling in‐situ monitoring for elderly healthcare.

Role of estrogen related receptor beta (ESRRB) in DFN35B hearing impairment and dental decay [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Congenital forms of hearing impairment can be caused by mutations in the estrogen related receptor beta (ESRRB) gene. Our initial linkage studies suggested the ESRRB locus is linked to high caries experience in humans. METHODS: We tested for

Highly Efficient Classification of Time‐Series Based on Resistive Switching Cluster‐Assembled Materials

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Cluster‐assembled nanocomposite devices are employed for the classification of neuronal traces, without any preprocessing of the input time‐series or prior training of the nonlinear devices. The classification method relies on the statistical analysis of the device's output time‐series, achieving higher classification accuracy compared to more energy ...
