Whose Death Matters? A Quantitative Analysis of Media Attention to Deaths of Black Americans in Police Confrontations, 2013–2016 by Zuckerman, Ethan, Matias, J. Nathan, Bhargava, Rahul, Bermejo, Fernando, Ko, Allan

“…Media coverage of deaths of unarmed people of color at the hands of police sharply increased after the high-profile death of Michael Brown. We analyze a novel set of media data to understand reasons for this rise and to postulate a shift in reporting that treats these deaths as part of a larger pattern, crystallized around the “key event” of Michael Brown’s death rather than as unconnected incidents. …”

Effect of auxins on growth enhancement of cell suspension culture of Tongkat Ali Hitam (Polyalthia bullata) by Nurul Farhana Farezol, Munirah Adibah Kamarul Zaman, Azzreena Mohamad Azzeme

“…Although the ½ MSO yielded the highest biomass, the cell suspension cultures supplemented with 30 μM NAA showed promising results, achieving higher biomass compared to other auxin treatments and exhibiting a light yellowish-brown cell. This suggests that 30 μM NAA is a more efficient auxin utilization in reducing the occurrence of dark brown cells. …”

Impact of alginate encapsulation on myeloid leukemia cells. by Kyaw Htay.

“…Leukemia is a type of blood cancer characterized by a neoplastic proliferative expansion of hematopoietic stem cells, which grow in the bone marrow. Current leukemia studies using 2D culture flasks and in vivo animal models have not explained clearly yet how the interactions of cellular components in the bone marrow and their niches promote the growth of leukemic stem cells and thwart the chemotherapy. …”
