Deconstructing Designer Drugs

Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 2016
The concepts behind current “designer drugs” are not new. For several centuries, chemical synthesis has made drugs more specific and more selective. However, headline designer drugs now are different and a serious public health problem because they are illicit unregulated chemical knockoffs of approved psychoactive stimulant, sedative, or perception ...

Designing the deconstruction of plant cell walls

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2008
Cell wall architecture plays a key role in the regulation of plant cell growth and differentiation into specific cell types. Gaining genetic control of the amount, composition, and structure of cell walls in different cell types will impact both the quantity and yield of fermentable sugars from biomass for biofuels production.

Deconstructing the design of a biological material

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2005
By identifying the functional conflicts in its design, the cuticle of arthropods can be shown to cope with IR and UV irradiation in the same manner as our technology-by controlling spectral properties (transmission and reflection). However, the skeletal properties of cuticle are integrated with demands for sensory transmission, movement, etc, by ...

Designing and Deconstructing the Fano Lineshape in Plasmonic Nanoclusters

Nano Letters, 2012
By varying the relative dimensions of the central and peripheral disks of a plasmonic nanocluster, the depth of its Fano resonance can be systematically modified; spectral windows where the scattering cross section of the nanocluster is negligible can be obtained.

Design for learning: deconstructing virtual patient activities

Medical Teacher, 2011
Digital technologies are used in almost every aspect of contemporary health professional education (HPE) but our understanding of their true potential as instructional tools rather than administrative tools has not significantly advanced in the last decade.
