Memristor‐Based Reconfigurable True Time Delay Circuit

International Journal of Circuit Theory and Applications, EarlyView.
A memristor‐controlled CMOS reconfigurable true time delay circuit is introduced in this paper. The memristor value variation changes the DC bias voltage inputs of the delay elements and thus controls the delay time indirectly. ABSTRACT A memristor‐controlled CMOS reconfigurable true time delay circuit is introduced in this paper.

Enigmatic Nodal and Lefty gene repertoire discrepancy: Latent evolutionary history revealed by vertebrate‐wide phylogeny

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Homology in vertebrate body plans is traditionally ascribed to the high‐level conservation of regulatory components within the genetic programs governing them, particularly during the “phylotypic stage.” However, advancements in embryology and molecular phylogeny have unveiled the dynamic nature of gene repertoires responsible for early ...

Dynamic electro‐clinical features in Guanidinoacetate N‐methyltransferase deficiency: A familial case series

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Guanidinoacetate N‐methyltransferase deficiency is an inborn error of creatine metabolism, responsible for the absent conversion of guanidinoacetic acid into creatine, resulting in cerebral creatine deficit. It could present a variety of symptoms such as neurodevelopmental delay, epilepsy, movement disorder (ataxia, dystonia, and chorea), and ...
