Artificial Nervous Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
By drawing inspiration from biological neural hierarchies and the working mechanisms of plasticity, researchers have constructed a series of bionic devices, including sensory devices, synapse devices, and artificial neural systems. They committed to simulating and surpassing the biological information processing function, thereby realizing the ...

A Study of Relationship between the Acoustic Sensitivity of Vestibular System and the Ability to Trigger Sound-Evoked Muscle Reflex of the Middle Ear in Adults with Normal Hearing

open access: yesپزشکی بالینی ابن سینا, 2014
Introduction & Objective: The vestibular system is sound sensitive and the sensitivity is related to the saccule. The vestibular afferents are projected to the middle ear muscles (such as the stapedius).

Sound absorption characteristic of micro-helix metamaterial by 3D printing

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2018
: We present the design of micro-helix metamaterial supporting high sound absorption characteristic by 3D printing. The sample structure which is fabricated out of polylactide (PLA) material, many micro-helix are arranged by periodic arrays on XY plane ...

Separating Nucleation and Growth: High‐Overpotential Pretreatment Pulses for Sodium‐Metal Electrodes

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
During conventional galvanostatic cycling sodium metal growth/removal occurs unevenly with some parts forming large and deep pits, as well as mossy sodium growth, and the rest of the surface left mostly non‐activated. This issue can be solved using short high‐overpotential pretreatment pulses during the first cycle leading to well‐distributed ...

Beyond Labels: Exploring Consumer Preferences for Plant‐Based Meat Labeling Policies

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Whether meat‐related terms should be permitted on the labels of plant‐based meat alternatives is hotly debated. Utilizing survey data featuring a discrete choice experiment, we examine consumer responses to plant‐based meat alternatives under three labeling scenarios: no restrictions; a ban on meat‐related terms; and a requirement for a ...

The architecture of EMC reveals a path for membrane protein insertion

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Approximately 25% of eukaryotic genes code for integral membrane proteins that are assembled at the endoplasmic reticulum. An abundant and widely conserved multi-protein complex termed EMC has been implicated in membrane protein biogenesis, but its ...

Tmc1 point mutation affects Ca2+ sensitivity and block by dihydrostreptomycin of the mechanoelectrical transducer current of mouse outer hair cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The transduction of sound into electrical signals depends on mechanically sensitive ion channels in the stereociliary bundle. The molecular composition of this mechanoelectrical transducer (MET) channel is not yet known.

Row Crops and the U.S. Agricultural Trade Deficit: Recent Trends and Policy Issues

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Row crops such as soybeans, corn, wheat, and cotton are the backbone of the U.S. farm sector, accounting for around $60 billion of exports in 2023. While U.S. row crop exports remain robust, growing concerns over the rising U.S. agricultural trade deficit underscore the need to appraise the ongoing market and policy dynamics affecting the ...

Clean Cut (adaptive, multimodal surgical infection prevention programme) for low‐resource settings: a prospective quality improvement study

open access: yesBJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
Clean Cut is a multimodal, adaptive, checklist‐based infection prevention programme designed to improve compliance with six critical perioperative infection prevention practices. After introducing the programme at five hospitals in Ethiopia, compliance with critical infection prevention standards significantly improved and the relative risk of ...

Strategic Advocacy for Higher Education Research: Insights From US Agricultural Experiment Station Funding

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amidst dwindling state funding and the legislative withdrawal from public university research support, a heightened political process shapes the allocation of scarce tax dollars. This article explores how advocacy within the political process influences funding support for higher education from state legislatures.
