Single-cell lipidomics reveals a role for cell-to-cell sphingolipid heterogeneity in fibroblast activation

Laura Capolupo

Cell-to-cell variability plays a key role in tissue patterning by setting initial asymmetry that primes cell fate decisions. Fluctuations in the activity of regulatory molecules can commit individual cells to divergent differentiation pathways, and cell-to ...

Spontaneous formation of ordered micro-wrinkles on a thermosensitive resist

Jürgen Brugger, Giovanni Boero, Xia Liu, Ana Conde Rubio, Mohammadreza Rostami

Self-organizing patterns with micrometer-scale features are promising for applications in photonics and bioengineering. Their spontaneous formation reduces the number of required processing steps. Here, we report an approach to spontaneously form stochasti ...

Soft Touch using Soft Pneumatic Actuator-Skin as a Wearable Haptic Feedback Device

Jamie Paik, Harshal Arun Sonar, Jian-Lin Huang

Understanding the external environment depends heavily on vision, audition, and touch. Like vision and audition, the human sense of touch is complex. Tactile perception is composed of multiple fundamental and physical experiences felt as changes in stiffne ...
