Advances in single-cell technologies are transforming our understanding of cellular identity. For instance, the application of single-cell RNA sequencing and mass cytometry technologies to the study of immune cell populations in...
INTRODUCTION: Lockdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic had a disruptive effect on medical education when they prevented medical students accessing real patients. To address this, we piloted 35 medical students at home consulting...
BACKGROUND: DNA methylation changes at a discrete set of sites in the human genome are predictive of chronological and biological age. However, it is not known whether these changes are causative or a consequence of an...
Optoacoustic or photoacoustic imaging (OAI/PAI) is a technology which enables non-invasive visualization of laser-illuminated tissue by the detection of acoustic signals. The combination of "light in" and "sound out" offers...
During visual perception, the brain enhances the representations of image regions that belong to figures and suppresses those that belong to the background. Natural images contain many regions that initially appear to be part of...
Experiential learning (EL) has great potential to transform students’ learning experience. Few studies, however, have focused on the use of EL in computer science education. The purpose of this study was to examine students'...
Transplantation is the optimal treatment for most patients with end-stage kidney disease but organ shortage is a major challenge. Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) has been used to recondition marginal organs; however...
This study is a systematic review of literature on the classification of sounds in three domains - Bioacoustics, Biomedical acoustics, and Ecoacoustics. Specifically, 68 conferences and journal articles published between 2010...
Transient receptor potential vanilloid 2 (TRPV2) is involved in many critical physiological and pathophysiological processes, making it a promising drug target. Here we present cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of...
Conventional human embryonic stem cells are considered to be primed pluripotent but can be induced to enter a naive state. However, the transcriptional features associated with naive and primed pluripotency are still not fully...
The representation of space in mouse visual cortex was thought to be relatively uniform. Here we reveal, using population receptive-field (pRF) mapping techniques, that mouse visual cortex contains a region in which pRFs are...
Abstract: The occurrence of repetitive genomic changes that provide a selective growth advantage in pluripotent stem cells is of concern for their clinical application. However, the effect of different culture conditions on the...
Facing Facebook: Ursinus Administrators Show Students the Dangers of Internet Use New Berman Exhibit to be Longest Running Show Ursinus Administration Supports WeCAN's Backing of Workers' Rights Sounds of Gospel Music Bless...
Lower urinary tract infections are among the most common human bacterial infections, but extension to the kidneys is rare. This has been attributed to mechanical forces, such as urine flow, that prevent the ascent of bladder...
IgG antibodies form immune complexes (IC) that propagate inflammation and tissue damage in autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus. IgG IC engage Fcγ receptors (FcγR) on mononuclear phagocytes (MNP), leading to...
