Substrate Stress Relaxation Regulates Cell‐Mediated Assembly of Extracellular Matrix
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Silicone‐based viscoelastic substrates with tunable stress relaxation reveal how matrix mechanics regulates cellular mechanosensing and cell‐mediated matrix remodelling in the stiff regime. High stress relaxation promotes assembly of fibronectin fibril‐like structures, increased nuclear localization of YAP and formation of β1 integrin‐enriched ...

Prosthetic rehabilitation of an orbital defect for a patient with hemifacial atrophy
The Journal of Indian Prosthodontic Society, 2016 Removal of an eye may be indicated in cases of congenital abnormality, severe trauma, or disease such as an infection, tumor, or malignancy. The disfigurement associated with a loss of an eye is often accompanied with physical problems, psychological ...

Silicon Microrefrigerator [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Components and Packaging Technologies, 2006 We fabricated a silicon microrefrigerator on a 500-mu m-thick substrate with the standard integrated circuit (IC) fabrication process. The cooler achieves a maximum cooling of 1 degrees C below ambient at room temperature. Simulations show that the cooling power density for a 40 x 40 mu m(2) device exceeds 500 W/cm(2). The unique three-dimensional (3-D)

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) microparticles with long‐term and thermal stability are prepared with or without collagen using a scalable one‐pot spray‐drying process. Under simulated physiological conditions, they crystallize into biomimetic bone mineral and, when combined with collagen, form extrudable, fibrillar bone‐like 3D constructs.
