A Bio‐Inspired Perspective on Materials Sustainability

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This perspective discusses natural materials as inspiration for sustainable engineering designs and the processing of materials. First, circularity, longevity, parsimony, and activity are presented as essential material paradigms. The perspective then uses many examples of natural and technical materials to introduce principles such as oligo ...

On the Automated Detection of Corneal Edema with Second Harmonic Generation Microscopy and Deep Learning [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
When the cornea becomes hydrated above its physiologic level it begins to significantly scatter light, loosing transparency and thus impairing eyesight. This condition, known as corneal edema, can be associated with different causes, such as corneal scarring, corneal infection, corneal inflammation, and others, making it difficult to diagnose and ...

On the barrier properties of the cornea: a microscopy study of the penetration of fluorescently labeled nanoparticles, polymers, and sodium fluorescein.

open access: yesMolecular Pharmaceutics, 2014
Overcoming the natural defensive barrier functions of the eye remains one of the greatest challenges of ocular drug delivery. Cornea is a chemical and mechanical barrier preventing the passage of any foreign bodies including drugs into the eye, but the ...
