BACKGROUND: Low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) has been a major limiting factor for the application of higher-resolution diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). Most of the conventional denoising models suffer from the drawbacks of shallow feature extraction ...
Examination of rodent vocalizations in experimental conditions can yield valuable insights into how disease manifests and progresses over time. It can also be used as an index of social interest, motivation, emotional development or motor function de...
BACKGROUND: Vascular interventions imply radiation exposure to the operating physician (OP). To reduce radiation exposure, we propose a novel passive robotic device for fluoroscopy-guided arterial puncturing.
In connectomics, the study of the network structure of connected neurons, great advances are being made on two different scales: that of macro- and meso-scale connectomics, studying the connectivity between populations of neurons, and that of micro-s...
Caenorhabditis elegans is a popular organism for aging research owing to its highly conserved molecular pathways, short lifespan, small size, and extensive genetic and reverse genetic resources. Here we describe the WormBot, an open-source robotic im...

Toxicity testing is critical for new drug and chemical development process. A clinical study, experimental animal models, and in vitro study are performed to evaluate the safety of a new drug. The limitations of these methods include extensive time f...
BACKGROUND: Experimental investigation of sleep-wake dynamics in animals is an important part of pharmaceutical development. Typically, it involves recording of electroencephalogram, electromyogram, locomotor activity, and electrooculogram. Visual id...
Robotic systems are becoming more ubiquitous, whether on land, in the air, or in water. In the aquatic realm, aquatic drones including ROVs (remotely operated vehicles) and AUVs (autonomous underwater vehicles) have opened new opportunities to invest...
