Materials that make robots smart [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
We posit that embodied artificial intelligence is not only a computational, but also a materials problem. While the importance of material and structural properties in the control loop are well understood, materials can take an active role during control by tight integration of sensors, actuators, computation and communication.

Landscape of BRAF transcript variants in human cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We investigate the annotation of BRAF variants, focusing on protein‐coding BRAF‐220 (formerly BRAF‐reference) and BRAF‐204 (BRAF‐X1). The IsoWorm pipeline allows us to quantify these variants in human cancer, starting from RNA‐sequencing data. BRAF‐204 is more abundant than BRAF‐220 and impacts patient survival.

Modeling self-healing efficiency on cracks due to unhydrated cement nuclei in cementitious materials: splitting crack mode

open access: yesScience and Engineering of Composite Materials, 2012
The nuclei of unhydrated cement particles left in cementitious materials after maturation, can provide a self-healing capability to micro-cracked matrix under favorable conditions. This study is conducted to characterize self-healing efficiency on cracks

Similarity Measuring Approuch for Engineering Materials Selection [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
Advanced engineering materials design involves the exploration of massive multidimensional feature spaces, the correlation of materials properties and the processing parameters derived from disparate sources. The search for alternative materials or processing property strategies, whether through analytical, experimental or simulation approaches, has ...

Loss of primary cilia promotes EphA2‐mediated endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in the ovarian tumor microenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of primary cilia in endothelial cells promotes EndMT and vascular abnormalities in the ovarian tumor microenvironment through EphA2 activation. Using human samples, in vitro models, and endothelial‐specific Kif3a‐knockout mice, we show that primary cilia loss drives the acquisition of cancer‐associated fibroblast‐like phenotypes, thereby ...
