The Bionic Interface: Considering the Material Mediated Electrical Stimulation of Stem Cells

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Electrical stimulation directs stem cell fate in tissue engineering. Cellular responses are influenced by membrane properties, intrinsic cell state, material charge‐transport characteristics, and the applied electrical signal. Additionally, a material’s ability to inject, store, and redistribute charge further modulates these responses.

TVB C++: A Fast and Flexible Back‐End for The Virtual Brain

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
TVB C++ is a streamlined and fast C++ Back‐End for The Virtual Brain (TVB), designed to make it as flexible as TVB, and FAST. Another pillar is to be fully compatible with TVB so easy bindings can be created from Python. Users can easily configure TVB C++ to execute the same code but with enhanced performance and parallelism.
