A surface transporter family conveys the trypanosome differentiation signal by Dean, S, Marchetti, R, Kirk, K, Matthews, KR

“…This requires hypersensitization of the parasites to CCA by exposure to low temperature, conditions encountered after tsetse fly feeding at dusk or dawn. Here we identify a carboxylate-transporter family, PAD (proteins associated with differentiation), required for perception of this differentiation signal. …”

Augmented reality application for chemical engineering unit operations by Gunawan, P, Kwan, J, Cai, Y, Yang, R

“…An important example is the continuous distillation column, which operation is often seen as a black box, where the incoming feed will undergo separation process inside the column to produce desired products. …”

Carbon-semiconductor hybrid nanostructures and their photoresponse behaviors by Zhan, Zhaoyao

“…Carbon nanomaterials are unique in terms of structure, carbon nanotube (CNT) bears a hollow one-dimensional structure; and graphene is an one-atom-thick sheet and has extremely high specific surface area; both of them are presenting excellent charge transport capability. …”

Post-treatment of anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) effluent using activated carbon by Mai, Do Thi, Kunacheva, Chinagarn, Stuckey, David C.

“…Anaerobic membrane bioreactors (AnMBR) are very effective for wastewater treatment, however, with the antibiotic ciprofloxacin (CIP) (0-4.7 mg CIP/L) in the feed their performance decreases, the characteristics of the effluent changes, and further treatment is needed to recycle or discharge the treated effluent. …”

Deformable pose traversal convolution for 3D action and gesture recognition by Weng, Junwu, Liu, Mengyuan, Jiang, Xudong, Yuan, Junsong

“…This deformable convolution better utilizes the contextual joints for action and gesture recognition and is more robust to noisy joints. Moreover, by feeding the learned pose feature to a LSTM, we perform end-to-end training that jointly optimizes 3D pose representation and temporal sequence recognition. …”

Elevated glucocorticoid alters the developmental dynamics of hypothalamic neurogenesis in zebrafish by Eachus, Helen, Choi, Min-Kyeung, Tochwin, Anna, Kaspareit, Johanna, Ho, May, Ryu, Soojin

“…This is followed by failed maturation and early decline accompanied by impaired feeding, growth, and survival. In GC-exposed animals, the developmental trajectory of hypothalamic progenitor cells is strikingly altered, potentially mediated by direct regulation of transcription factors such as rx3 by GC. …”

“Materials Science” Challenges in the Additive Manufacturing of Industrial Parts by Hascoet, Jean-Yves, Marya, Surendar, Marya, Manuel, Singh, Virendra

“…Additive Manufacturing (AM), somewhat like fusion welding, brings into play: (1) complex and interacting physical phenomena such as heat and mass transfer, phase changes (including melting, solidification, allotropic transformations and diffusion phenomena such as epitaxial growth, grain growth), (2) a number of process variables associated to the moving heat source (e.g., its power, power distribution, relative speed, size, all affecting energy density), its paths (e.g., linear, circular, oscillatory), and added metal feed rate via powder, wire, or ribbon, all controlling deposit dimensions, aspect-ratios, and properties, including defects. …”

A hidden lethal effect of long microplastic fibres on the coastal copepod Acartia erythraea by Takahashi, Kazutaka, Teh, Jun Chin

“…All copepods that had the fibre in their mouths eventually died within 24-h because the fibre penetrated deep into the gut, preventing feeding and potentially causing stress. Our finding implies that a single piece of microplastic fibre remaining at the bottom of coastal zones could continue to kill copepods owing to its non-degradability.…”
