Abstract: "Solid Oxide Fuel Cells are high temperature, solid-state, electrochemical devices that can convert fuels into electricity or produce fuels from excess electricity. Oxygen is reduced at the cathode to […]
Uncertainty quantification is a recent emerging interdisciplinary area that leverages the power of statistical methods, machine learning models, numerical methods and data-driven approach to provide reliable inference for quantities of […]
Rapid, sensitive, and specific detection of causative pathogens is key to personalized medicine and the prompt implementation of appropriate mitigation measures to reduce disease transmission, mortality, morbidity, and cost. Conventional […]
Amorphous solids, those composed of haphazardly arranged constituents, are found everywhere from our windows as silicate glass, in the ground and foundations as mud and concrete, and our grocery stores […]
Abstract: "As thrombosis proceeds, platelets in a clot can expose phosphatidylserine (PS), providing a negatively charged surface for thrombin generation. These PS+ platelets have been shown to sort to the […]
Abstract: "Hemostatic clots have a core/shell hierarchy comprised of a P-selectin positive core surrounded by a P-selectin negative shell. A new human blood microfluidic assay utilizing a 2-stage assay was […]
In many cases, the size and weight of energy storage technologies required to power robotic systems are too large or massive for a robot to carry, leading to limited operational […]
We discuss mechanical behavior of specific fibrous network materials, including the evolution of tension in fibrin clots, compression of pulmonary emboli, and fracture of Whatman filter paper. The first material, […]
The Department of Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. Dennis Discher are pleased to announce the Doctoral Dissertation Defense of Jason Andrechak. Title: Leveraging Macrophage Immune Checkpoint Blockade […]
The study of the functional organization of the human brain using resting-state functional MRI (rsfMRI) has been of significant interest in cognitive neuroscience for over two decades. The functional organization […]
