Decision Framework for Engaging Cloud-Based Big Data Analytics Vendors
Organizations face both opportunities and risks with big data analytics vendors, and the risks are now profound, as data has been likened to the oil of the digital era. The growing body of research at the nexus of big data...
An Approach to Supporting Teaching With Data in the Social Sciences
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is moving rapidly toward integrating data literacy and data science in the undergraduate curriculum. This study interviewed instructors across the social sciences to identify ways...
Membrane Scaffolds Enhance the Responsiveness and Stability of DNA-Based Sensing Circuits.
Target-induced DNA strand displacement is an excellent candidate for developing analyte-responsive DNA circuitry to be used in clinical diagnostics and synthetic biology. While most available technologies rely on DNA circuitry...

Automated Detection of On-Farm Irrigation Reservoirs in Two Critical Groundwater Regions of Arkansas
In eastern Arkansas, the use of surface water for crop irrigation is steadily increasing in response to declining aquifers. Effective conjunctive water management requires accurate and timely information on the locations, sizes...
Bridging the Gap Between Strategic Environmental Assessment and Planning
Current planning practices in Europe are affected by regulations aiming at environmental protection and risk reduction; however, planners face difficulties in implementing the norms. This chapter discusses the influence of the...
Responsive core-shell DNA particles trigger lipid-membrane disruption and bacteria entrapment.
Biology has evolved a variety of agents capable of permeabilizing and disrupting lipid membranes, from amyloid aggregates, to antimicrobial peptides, to venom compounds. While often associated with disease or toxicity, these...

Simplexity to Improve Human-Machine Interaction in 3D Virtual Reality
The purpose of this paper is to present the use of the notion of simplexity to facilitate the design of virtual and immersive environments. Through ahistorical and argumentative excursus, the authors specify the motivations that...
Cations Regulate Membrane Attachment and Functionality of DNA Nanostructures.
The interplay between nucleic acids and lipids underpins several key processes in molecular biology, synthetic biotechnology, vaccine technology, and nanomedicine. These interactions are often electrostatic in nature, and much...
Kinetics of Nanoparticle-Membrane Adhesion Mediated by Multivalent Interactions.
Multivalent adhesive interactions mediated by a large number of ligands and receptors underpin many biological processes, including cell adhesion and the uptake of particles, viruses, parasites, and nanomedical vectors. In...
