Advanced Halide Scintillators: From the Bulk to Nano
Advanced Photonics Research, 2022 Halide scintillators have been playing a crucial role in the detection of ionizing radiation since the discovery of scintillation in NaI:Tl in 1948. The discovery of NaI:Tl motivated the research and development (R&D) of halide scintillators, resulting ...

ToyArchitecture: Unsupervised learning of interpretable models of the environment. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2020 Research in Artificial Intelligence (AI) has focused mostly on two extremes: either on small improvements in narrow AI domains, or on universal theoretical frameworks which are often uncomputable, or lack practical implementations.

One-dimensional scintillator film with benign grain boundaries for high-resolution and fast x-ray imaging. [PDF]
Sci Adv, 2023 Fast and high-resolution x-ray imaging demands scintillator films with negligible afterglow, high scintillation yield, and minimized cross-talk. However, grain boundaries (GBs) are abundant in polycrystalline scintillator film, and, for current inorganic

Dietitians vary by counseling status in bean promotion with type 2 diabetes clients: A pilot study. [PDF]
Food Sci Nutr, 2020 Scientific evidence supports that eating beans is helpful in managing type 2 diabetes with adults. This study investigated Registered Dietitians' (RDs) views on beans and if they recommended to persons with type 2 diabetes. Findings suggest that RDs who do not counsel for diabetes in clinical settings are more likely to recommend them to clients ...
