Raman spectroscopy shows promise as a tool for timely diagnostics via in-vivo spectroscopy of the eye, for a number of ophthalmic diseases. By measuring the inelastic scattering of light, Raman spectroscopy is able to reveal detailed chemical charact...
New robotic systems have recently emerged to assist with peripheral lung access, but a robotic system for rigid bronchoscopy has yet to be developed. We describe a new robotic system that can deliver thin robotic manipulators through the ports of sta...

This paper explores the model parameters estimation of a quadrotor UAV by exploiting the cooperative particle swarm optimization-cuckoo search (PSO-CS). The PSO-CS regulates the convergence velocity benefiting from the capabilities of social thinking...
Behavior is controlled by complex neural networks in which neurons process thousands of inputs. However, even short spike trains evoked in a single cortical neuron were demonstrated to be sufficient to influence behavior in vivo. Specifically, irregu...

Neurodevelopmental spectrum disorders like autism (ASD) are diagnosed, on average, beyond age 4 y, after multiple critical periods of brain development close and behavioral intervention becomes less effective. This raises the urgent need for quantita...
Stem cells are a group of competent cells capable of self-renewal and differentiating into osteogenic, chondrogenic, and adipogenic lineages. These cells provide the possibility of successfully treating patients. During differentiation into adipose t...
The manufacture of biotherapeutic proteins consists of complex upstream unit operations requiring multiple raw materials, analytical techniques, and control strategies to produce safe and consistent products for patients. Raman spectroscopy is a ubiq...
Toxic misfolded proteins potentially underly many neurodegenerative diseases, but individual targets which regulate these proteins and their downstream detrimental effects are often unknown. Phenotypic screening is an unbiased method to screen for no...
A diversity of self-propelled chemical motors, based on Marangoni propulsive forces, has been developed in recent years. However, most motors are non-functional due to poor performance, a lack of control, and the use of toxic materials. To overcome t...
Human well-being can be affected by exposure to several chemicals in the environment. One such group is endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) that can perturb the hormonal homeostasis leading to adverse health effects. In this work, we have developed...
