Possible Effects of Early Maternal Separation on the Gut Microbiota of Captive Adult Giant Pandas

Animals, 2022
Maternal deprivation (MD) in early life induces dysbiosis in the host gut microbiota, which is a key determinant of abnormal behavior in stress model individuals.

Giant intrinsic carrier mobilities in graphene and its bilayer. [PDF]

Physical Review Letters, 2007
We have studied temperature dependences of electron transport in graphene and its bilayer and found extremely low electron-phonon scattering rates that set the fundamental limit on possible charge carrier mobilities at room temperature.
