Magnetic field swimmer positioning [PDF]
, 2015 Several projects have tracked the movement of swimmers in pools using body worn inertial measurement units. In swimming, inertial sensing is subject to large amounts of drift and accumulated error which can only be corrected for after a complete length ...

Folded MEMS Pyramid Inertial Measurement Unit [PDF]
IEEE Sensors Journal, 2011 This paper reports a new approach for design and fabrication of chip-level inertial measurement units (IMUs). The method utilizes a 3-D foldable silicon-on-insulator (SOI) backbone with in-situ fabricated high-aspect-ratio sensors. A planar multisensor unit was fabricated and subsequently folded in a pyramidal shape, forming a compact IMU.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Validity of a Wearable Digital Insole for Assessing Gait ON and OFF in Parkinson's Disease
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Gait impairment is a distinctive symptom of Parkinson's disease that negatively impact mobility. We assessed the validity of wearable digital insoles against a validated reference gait analysis system for measuring select gait characteristics in patients with Parkinson's disease. Methods A comparative analysis between digital insoles
