Vision‐Based Tactile Finger Integrating Fingerpad and Nail Sensing for Robotic Manipulation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This vision‐based tactile finger captures nail force and fingerpad force, contact position, and in‐plane orientation with one internal camera. An external camera recognizes the target and presets finger inclination from object height. The compact dual‐sensing design supports tactile‐guided table contact and reliable grasping of objects ranging from ...

How cold is too cold? A theoretical analysis of the optimal trigger for index insurance for frost damage to crops

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Crop insurance is undoubtedly an extremely valuable element in protecting agricultural businesses, but in many cases standard indemnity‐based products have had very low uptake due to high transaction costs elevating premiums to unaffordable levels.

High‐elevation endemic plants predicted to lose habitat from changing climate in Washington State

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise High‐elevation plants face unique challenges from potential climate change impacts that will likely require upslope migration into increasingly smaller suitable habitat. This situation is particularly acute for endemic species that by definition occupy small geographic ranges.

Nanofabricated Biomaterials Model Tumor Extracellular Matrix Topography

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
The unique structure and composition of the tumor microenvironment and its associated extracellular matrix (ECM) exert profound effects on cancer cell behavior that are difficult to model in vitro. This perspective discusses the utility of nanofabricated biosubstrates, such as the novel collagen‐coated nanogrooved array, for recapitulating the ...

Safety and Feasibility of Magnetic Separation‐Based Blood Purification

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
We present the preclinical biological safety and translational feasibility of a magnetic nanoparticle‐based extracorporeal blood purification platform for removal of disease‐causing blood factors. ISO 10993‐compliant studies and exaggerated worst‐case exposure models demonstrate efficient nanoparticle extraction (≥99.9%), favorable biocompatibility ...
