Magnetic‐Driven Torque‐Induced Electrical Stimulation for Millisecond‐Scale Wireless Neuromodulation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
MagTIES is a wireless neuromodulation technique with millisecond precision. It employs magnetic‐driven torque from magnetite nanodiscs to activate piezoelectric nanoparticles, enabling precise temporal control of neuronal activity and brain oscillations using weak, low‐frequency magnetic fields.

Printing and Rerouting of Elastic and Protease Responsive Shape Memory Hydrogel Filaments

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A biofabrication strategy, Rerouting of Free‐Floating Suspended Hydrogel Filaments (REFRESH), is developed enabling the printing of highly elastic, reconfigurable protease‐responsive hydrogel filaments with shape memory properties. The filaments can be manually braided, knotted, and rerouted to create intricate cell‐laden 3D architectures, expanding ...

Fatigue‐Resistant Mechanoresponsive Color‐Changing Hydrogels for Vision‐Based Tactile Robots

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Mechanoresponsive color‐changing materials that can reversibly and resiliently change color in response to stress are highly desirable for diverse technologies in optics, sensors, and robots; however, such materials are rarely achieved. This work reports a fatigue‐resistant mechanoresponsive color‐changing hydrogel that exhibits reversible, resilient ...

A New Approach to the Long-Term Activity Behavior of DM UMa

Open Astronomy, 2012
A long-term activity character of DM UMa (K0-1 IV-III), which is one of the most active members of the RS CVn type variables, is examined using the multicolor photometric observations which spread to the time interval between 1980 and 2009. In this work,

Modeling Long-Term Photometric Data of Trans-Neptunian Objects and Centaurs

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
Trans-Neptunian objects and Centaurs are small Solar System bodies that reside in the outer parts of the Solar System. These objects present photometric behaviors that are influenced due to a change in their aspect angle.

The MUCHFUSS photometric campaign [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2018
Hot subdwarfs (sdO/Bs) are the helium-burning cores of red giants, which have lost almost all of their hydrogen envelope. This mass loss is often triggered by common envelope interactions with close stellar or even substellar companions. Cool companions like late-type stars or brown dwarfs are detectable via characteristic light-curve variations like ...

Multifunctional Neural Probes Enable Bidirectional Electrical, Optical, and Chemical Recording and Stimulation In Vivo

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Convergence drawing is used to create flexible, microscale, multifunctional fiber‐based neural probes. Optimized materials selection enables individual devices to perform neural recording, electrical stimulation, optogenetics, fiber photometry, fluid delivery, and voltammetric neurotransmitter detection in rodents.

Merging Data from Large and Small Telescopes – Good or Bad? And: How Useful is the Application of Statistical Weights to Time-Series Photometric Measurements?

Open Astronomy, 2003
I have investigated the value of the contribution of small telescopes to the success of a whole WET run. To this end, I have applied different data weighting schemes to two extreme WET test data sets. I find that weights proportional to the inverse local
