Reactivating and reorganizing activity-silent working memory: two distinct mechanisms underlying pinging the brain by Yang, C, He, X, Cai, Y

“…Recent studies have proposed that visual information in working memory (WM) can be maintained in an activity-silent state and reactivated by task-irrelevant high-contrast visual impulses (“ping”). Although pinging the brain has become a popular tool for exploring activity-silent WM, its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. …”

Fabrication of fine features using digital light processing stereolithography by Chew, Ze Yong

“…Thus, this project was developed with the objectives to: 1. reduce production cost of Stereolithography by optimizing low end commercial Stereolithography system – ASIGA Freeform Pico 39 Plus such that it is able to print fine features 2. explore effective and convenient post processing step such that it is able to reduce material wastage and at the same time further shorten production lead time The parameter study conducted revealed that every layer thickness has a specific optimal exposure time such that the layers could be printed just fine, with minimal compromise of the internal features’ accuracy. …”
