Conformational Switching of Proteins on Material Surfaces Enabled by Peptide‐Oriented Adsorption

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Responsive biointerfaces could be achieved using conformationally responsive proteins; however, their interconversion can be lost upon surface adsorption. Herein, we demonstrate that the incorporation a Au binding peptide into calmodulin allows for binding control on Au wherein the protein retains conformational switching. This capability was confirmed

Surviving an intervention: ERPs and masked intervenor priming

open access: yes, 2020
This study investigates the behavioural and neurophysiological consequences of presenting an additional masked word between a masked identity prime and its target. In line with previous research, the behavioural results confirmed that identity priming is

Coordinated Architectural and Chemical Reinforcement in the Crushing Mandible of a Soldier Termite

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The crushing mandible of a soldier termite withstands substantial biting loads despite lacking mineral. Its cuticle is partitioned: convex teeth pair hardness and zinc enrichment with aligned chitin fibers for contact durability, while stiffer concave regions between teeth carry bending loads.

Do diacritical marks play a role at the early stages of word recognition in Arabic?

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2016
A crucial question in the area of visual-word recognition is whether visual-letter similarity plays a role at the early stages of word processing. Here we focused in Arabic because there are various groups of letters that share the same basic shape and ...

Modulation of self-esteem in self- and other-evaluations primed by subliminal and supraliminal faces. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Past research examining implicit self-evaluation often manipulated self-processing as task-irrelevant but presented self-related stimuli supraliminally.

Attentional modulation of masked semantic priming by visible and masked task cues

open access: yes, 2019
In contrast to classical theories of cognitive control, recent evidence suggests that cognitive control and unconscious automatic processing influence each other.

2D Skeletal Muscle Thin Film Actuators Enhance Efficiency of Biohybrid Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
2D skeletal muscle thin film actuators generate millinewton‐scale forces and millimeter‐scale strokes while remaining functional for over 30 days. Their force density is 20‐fold higher than 3D skeletal muscle actuators, enabling multi‐fin robots with tunable speed and multidirectional steering.

Athletes demonstrate an advantage in unconscious processing under working-memory load specifically within sport-related domains

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology
A growing body of evidence indicates that unconscious priming requires attentional resources, including high-level cognitive resources such as executive attention. However, the generalizability of this finding remains unexplored. Specifically, it remains

Can You Identify These Celebrities? A Network Analysis on Differences between Word and Face Recognition

open access: yesMathematics, 2020
Face recognition is located in the fusiform gyrus, which is also related to other tasks such word recognition. Although these two processes have several similarities, there are remarkable differences that include a vast range of approaches, which results
