Investigating viral glycosylation pathways for drug and vaccine development by Brun, J

“…Chapter 4 focuses on the site-specific glycosylation occupancy, and N- and O-glycan structures attached to virion derived SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoproteins. This glycan signature was compared to a stabilised prefusion trimeric spike, to a monomeric subunit of spike (S1) and to an antigen of a non-stabilised vaccine candidate, revealing subunit shedding of the S1 glycoprotein for the vaccine candidate. …”

Synaptic CMOS transistor by Chai, Zhen Hong

“…In this work, electrical measurements were conducted on commercial level TiN/HfO2 gated n-channel MOSFET transistor (with an equivalent oxide thickness of 1.7nm) to demonstrate that it can exhibit some critical synaptic characteristics of a biological synapse such as excitatory and inhibitory postsynaptic current (EPSC and IPSC), short-term plasticity (STP) and long-term potentiation (LTP), metaplasticity, and spike timing dependent plasticity (STDP). The mechanism behind the output characteristic of MOSFET to exhibit synaptic-like response is the charge trapping and de-trapping at defects in the oxide and oxide/semiconductor interface. …”
