Influence of terahertz waves on the fiber direction of CFRP composite laminates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The importance of Carbon-fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) are widely utilized due to more high performance in engineering structures. It was well known that a nondestructive technique would be very beneficial.

Generation of a human iPSC line with heterozygous PRPF8 c.5792C > T, p. T1931M mutation to model retinitis pigmentosa using CRISPR/Cas9 technology

open access: yesStem Cell Research
Mutations in the PRPF8 gene frequently result in retinitis pigmentosa (RP), an autosomal dominant inherited retinal disease that can lead to nyctalopia and progressive vision loss. Currently, no effective treatment is available. In this study, we used CRISPR/Cas9 technology to introduce a heterozygous point mutation inthe PRPF8 gene of a normal induced

Applicability of mitotic figure counting by deep learning: a development and pan‐cancer validation study

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, we developed a deep learning method for mitotic figure counting in H&E‐stained whole‐slide images and evaluated its prognostic impact in 13 external validation cohorts from seven different cancer types. Patients with more mitotic figures per mm2 had significantly worse patient outcome in all the studied cancer types except colorectal ...

The effects of scientific literacy on participation to political decision making

open access: yesSHS Web of Conferences, 2016
The low levels of scientific literacy among the general public in a society where technology penetrates all aspects of everyday life creates major citizenship problems. One of the main goals of education is increasing the civic scientific literacy of the

Single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assays for high‐throughput DNA–protein interaction studies

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We describe an optimised single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assay that visualises DNA–protein interactions in real time. Linear DNA fragments are tethered to a surface and stretched by buffer flow for fluorescence imaging. Using λ and φX174 DNA, this protocol enhances reproducibility and accessibility, providing a versatile approach for studying diverse ...

Tests of gravity Using Lunar Laser Ranging [PDF]

open access: yes
Lunar laser ranging (LLR) has been a workhorse for testing general relativity over the pa~t four decades. The three retrorefiector arrays put on the Moon by the Apollo astronauts and the French built array on the second Soviet Lunokhod rover continue to ...

Technology strategies for low-carbon economic growth: a general equilibrium assessment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This paper investigates the potential for developing countries to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions without slowing their expected economic growth. A theoretical frame- work is developed that unifies bottom-up marginal abatement cost curves and partial ...

Large‐scale bidirectional arrayed genetic screens identify OXR1 and EMC4 as modifiers of αSynuclein aggregation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Activation of the mitochondrial protein OXR1 increases pSyn129 αSynuclein aggregation by lowering ATP levels and altering mitochondrial membrane potential, particularly in response to MSA‐derived fibrils. In contrast, ablation of the ER protein EMC4 enhances autophagic flux and lysosomal clearance, broadly reducing α‐synuclein aggregates.
