Microscale Architecture in Biomaterial Scaffolds for Spatial Control of Neural Cell Behavior
Frontiers in Materials, 2018 Biomaterial scaffolds mimic aspects of the native central nervous system (CNS) extracellular matrix (ECM) and have been extensively utilized to influence neural cell (NC) behavior in in vitro and in vivo settings.

Wnt/β-catenin regulates an ancient signaling network during zebrafish scale development
eLife, 2018 Understanding how patterning influences cell behaviors to generate three dimensional morphologies is a central goal of developmental biology. Additionally, comparing these regulatory mechanisms among morphologically diverse tissues allows for rigorous ...

Investigating body patterning in aquarium-raised flamboyant cuttlefish (Metasepia pfefferi) [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Cuttlefish are known for their ability to quickly alter their total appearance, or body pattern, to camouflage or to communicate with predators, prey and conspecifics.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell disease (SCD) face multiple acute and chronic medical complications that may impact their quality of life as reported by patients themselves. Health‐related social needs (HRSNs), such as food and housing insecurity, are common in people with SCD, but the association between HRSNs and patient‐reported ...

Patterns and distribution of HIV among adult men and women in India. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 While the estimated prevalence of HIV in India experienced a downward revision in 2007, the patterning and distribution of HIV in the population remains unclear. We examined the individual and state-level socioeconomic patterning of individual HIV status

Deciding on a Continuum of Equivalent Alternatives Engaging Uncertainty through Behavior Patterning
Foundations, 2022 A psychology experiment examining decision-making on a continuum of subjectively equivalent alternatives (directions) revealed that subjects follow a common pattern, giving preference to just a few directions over all others. When restricted experimental
