Single‐Cell Metabolic Imaging and Digital Scoring of Fat Tissue Remodeling by Label‐Free Metabolic Microscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mid‐infrared optoacoustic microscopy (MiROM) acquires lipid‐ and protein‐ associated vibrational contrast in intact fat tissue without dyes, preserving native tissue architecture. Through lateral and axial segmentation, MiROM tracks intrinsic intracellular changes during postnatal remodeling. A quantitative spatial analysis tool (Q‐SAT) maps white‐ and

A Century of Gravity: 1901--2000 (plus some 2001) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
This lecture consists of two parts. The first is a (totally unsystematic) survey of some of the high points in the evolution of gravity and its successors, primarily in the course of the past century.

A Central Somatic Transmission Mediates Proprioceptive Facilitation of Muscle Pain

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Zhang et al. uncover a novel central mechanism for persistent muscle pain, in which TRPA1 sensitization in MeV proprioceptive neurons enhances somatic secretion. This, in turn, disinhibits descending pain control from neighboring noradrenergic locus coeruleus neurons via local GABAergic circuits, thereby promoting inflammatory muscle pain.

Active Immunotherapy for the Prevention of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Disease

open access: yesVaccines
Neurodegenerative diseases (ND) give rise to significant declines in motor, autonomic, behavioral, and cognitive functions. Of these conditions, Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) are the most prevalent, impacting over 55 million ...

A Mathematician's Odyssey [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Genomics and Human Genetics, 2015
In this overview of my research, I have aimed to give the background as to how I came to be involved in my various areas of interest, with an emphasis on the early phases of my career, which largely determined my future directions. I had the enormous good fortune to have worked under two of the most outstanding scientists of the twentieth century, R.A.

Functional Analysis of Ligand‐Gated Chloride Channels in a Cnidarian Sheds Light on the Evolution of Inhibitory Signaling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We uncover a large variety of putative inhibitory ligand‐gated ion channels (LGICs) in the phylum Cnidaria, the sister group to all bilaterian animals. Phylogenetic analysis suggests a complex evolutionary history of inhibitory LGICs with diverse neurotransmitter ligands.

Solving the radial Dirac equations: a numerical odyssey

open access: yes, 2010
We discuss, in a pedagogical way, how to solve for relativistic wave functions from the radial Dirac equations. After an brief introduction, in Section II we solve the equations for a linear Lorentz scalar potential, V_s(r), that provides for confinement

A father's odyssey [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2019
The human resources representatives were amazed when I requested parental leave. I was one of the first male postdocs to ask in the 100-year history of the institution, they told me. The response didn't surprise me. Here in Japan, where roughly 85% of academic scientists are men and most have stay-at-home spouses, it's rare for fathers to take leave ...

2050—An Energetic Odyssey: Understanding ‘Techniques of Futuring’ in the transition towards renewable energy

open access: yesEnergy Research & Social Science, 2018
After the Paris agreement on climate change (2015) climate change politics is no longer about raising awareness but about shaping the sustainability transition itself.
