Charge shielding effects of PEG bound to NH2-terminated PAMAM dendrimers – an experimental approach by Johnston, Brandon M, Grodzinsky, Alan J, Hammond, Paula T

“…These data, coupled with 1H-NMR, allows us to study more closely the non-covalent interactions between PEG and PAMAM. We find that increasing PEG chain length increases the number of non-covalent interactions. …”

Experimental Characterization of Iron-Sulfur Cluster Excited States and their Relevance to Electron Transfer Reactions by Skeel, Brighton A.

“…We find additionally that the primary coordination sphere has a strong influence on the topography of these excited state landscapes, in particular that the donor properties of the ligands binding an [Fe₄S₄]¹⁺ cluster determine its ground state valence electron distribution. …”

Demographic differences in International students' information source uses and everyday information seeking challenges by Sin, Sei-Ching Joanna

“…Six everyday information domains (e.g., legal, financial, and personal development information) ranked more difficult to find than academic information. Non-credible, irrelevant, and outdated information were found to be the top problems. …”

Spatiotemporal coordination of FGF and Shh signaling underlies the specification of myoblasts in the zebrafish embryo by Yin, Jianmin, Lee, Raymond, Ono, Yosuke, Ingham, Philip William, Saunders, Timothy E.

“…Muscle formation is guided by highly orchestrated waves of cell specification. We find that FGF directly and indirectly controls the differentiation of fast and slow-twitch muscle lineages, respectively. …”

Carrier scattering mechanisms limiting mobility in hydrogen-doped indium oxide by Husein, Sebastian, Stuckelberger, Michael, West, Bradley, Ding, Laura, Dauzou, Fabien, Morales-Masis, Monica, Duchamp, Martial, Holman, Zachary, Bertoni, Mariana I.

“…We use the temperature-dependent Hall mobility from 5 to 300 K to determine the limiting electron scattering mechanisms for each film and identify the temperature ranges over which these remain significant. We find that at high hydrogen concentrations, the grain size is reduced, causing the onset of grain boundary scattering. …”

Genotype-phenotype maps for gene networks: from evolution to computation by Camargo, FQ

“…</p> <p>First, we apply tools from algorithmic information theory to a wide class of inputoutput maps, of which GP maps are a subset. We find that these maps show a strong bias towards simple phenotypes, a pattern known as <em>simplicity bias</em>. …”
