We introduce a vacuum-powered soft pneumatic actuator (V-SPA) that leverages a single,
shared vacuum power supply and enables complex soft robotic systems with multiple degrees …

Unique insights for the reprograming of cell lineages have come from embryonic development
in the ascidian Ciona, which is dependent upon the transcription factors Ci-ets1/2 and Ci-…

Soft pneumatic actuators (SPAs) are found in mobile robots, assistive wearable devices, and
rehabilitative technologies. While soft actuators have been one of the most crucial elements …

Rationale Perfusion decellularization of cadaveric hearts removes cells and generates a cell-free
extracellular matrix scaffold containing acellular vascular conduits, which are …

Multiple comparisons tests (MCTs) include the statistical tests used to compare groups (treatments)
often following a significant effect reported in one of many types of linear models. …

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a leading cause of death worldwide, however
our understanding of cell specific mechanisms underlying COPD pathobiology remains …

Chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy has become an important tool in the treatment of
relapsed and refractory malignancy; however, it is associated with significant neurological …

Background Genetic influences on gene expression in the human fetal brain plausibly impact
upon a variety of postnatal brain-related traits, including susceptibility to neuropsychiatric …

The mechanical behavior of high quality two-dimensional (2D) crystals offers exciting
opportunities for new material design, such as the combination of extremely high in-plane stiffness …

Sonic hedgehog (Shh) controls critical cellular decisions between distinct fates in many
systems, particularly in stem cells. The Shh network functions as a genetic switch, and we have …
