Sound based snore signal processing by Ang, Shouchen

“…Several evaluation has been done before concluding on a peak frequency threshold cut at 100Hz for this project. As long as the peak frequency of the snore signal falls below 100Hz, it will generate an indication to show the patient will potentially be diagnosed with OSA. …”

Controllable charge transfer via DNA molecules by Liu, Yuanjun

“…Double helix DNA structure with closed packed π stack has been considered to mediate long-range charge transfer. Although the comprehensive fundamental description of charge transfer along DNA is still missing, the process can be categorized into oxidative holes and reductive electrons transfer/transport. …”

Three-photon absorption in seeded CdSe/CdS nanorod heterostructures by Xing, Guichuan, Chakrabortty, Sabyasachi, Ngiam, Song Wee, Chan, Yinthai, Sum, Tze Chien

“…The PL from these rods show clear cubic power dependence and the 3PA cross-section (σ3) was found to be as high as 1.5×10^(-75) cm^6s^2photon^(-2) for 39 nm long rods, which is two to four orders of magnitude larger than those previously reported for spherical semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) under ~100 fs laser pulse excitation. …”

Adsorption of hyaluronic acid on solid supports: Role of pH and surface chemistry in thin film self-assembly by Choi, Jae-Hyeok, Kim, Seong-Oh, Linardy, Eric, Dreaden, Erik C., Zhdanov, Vladimir P., Hammond, Paula T., Cho, Nam-Joon

“…The observed specifics of the kinetics of HA adsorption, including a short initial linear phase and subsequent long non-linear phase, were described by using a mean-field kinetic model taking HA diffusion limitations and reconfiguration in the adsorbed state into account. …”

An analysis on the traffic processing efficiency of a combination of serial and parallel bottlenecks by Quek, Wei-Liang, Chung, Ning Ning, Chew, Lock Yue

“…In particular, we demonstrate that by constructing combinations of serial and parallel bottlenecks, optimal efficiencies are achieved via configurations with few (many) lanes of a large (small) number of serial units when the processing time is short (long). A direct implication of these results is that autonomous self-driving vehicles could serve to improve the transportation capacity for the densely populated urban cities of the future, due to the intrinsically more efficient collective vehicular motions through these bottlenecks.…”

Live-cell imaging and functional dissection of Xist RNA reveal mechanisms of X chromosome inactivation and reactivation by Ha, Norbert How Ong, Lai, Lan-Tian, Chelliah, Rosi, Zhen, Yashu, Seet, Vanessa Pei Yi, Lai, Soak-Kuan, Li, Hoi-Yeung, Ludwig, Alexander, Sandin, Sara, Chen, Lingyi, Zhang, Li-Feng

“…We double-tagged Xist (inactivated X chromosome-specific transcript), a prototype long non-coding RNA pivotal for X chromosome inactivation (XCI), using the programmable RNA sequence binding domain of Pumilio protein, one tag for live-cell imaging and the other replacing A-repeat (a critical domain of Xist) to generate “ΔA mutant” and to tether effector proteins for dissecting Xist functionality. …”
