Estimating Bacterial and Cellular Load in FCFM Imaging
Journal of Imaging, 2018 We address the task of estimating bacterial and cellular load in the human distal lung with fibered confocal fluorescence microscopy (FCFM). In pulmonary FCFM some cells can display autofluorescence, and they appear as disc like objects in the FCFM ...

Endogenous electric fields as guiding cue for cell migration
Frontiers in Physiology, 2015 This review is about the long-range action of endogenous electric fields (EF) within animal organisms. It covers two major topics: 1) the different functions of the EF during development of the organism as well as physiological and pathological roles of ...

Lipid Specific Membrane Interaction of Aptamers and Cytotoxicity
Membranes, 2021 We aim to discover diagnostic tools to detect phosphatidylserine (PS) externalization on apoptotic cell surface using PS binding aptamers, AAAGAC and TAAAGA, and hence to understand chemotherapy drug efficacy when inducing apoptosis into cancer cells ...

Multiplexing cell-cell communication
Molecular Systems Biology, 2019 AbstractThe engineering of advanced multicellular behaviors, such as the programmed growth of biofilms or tissues, requires cells to communicate multiple aspects of physiological information. Unfortunately, few cell-cell communication systems have been developed for synthetic biology. Here, we engineer a genetically-encoded channel selector device that

Parallel and convergent processing in grid cell, head-direction cell, boundary cell, and place cell networks. [PDF]
, 2013 The brain is able to construct internal representations that correspond to external spatial coordinates. Such brain maps of the external spatial topography may support a number of cognitive functions, including navigation and memory.
