Chemical Cell Surface Modification and Analysis of Nanoparticle-Modified Living Cells

Cells are promising as carriers that can enhance the delivery of nanomedicines. Cells that carry nanomedicinal cargo, either immobilized on the cell surface or internalized, can allow for highly specific delivery and can enable the transport of nanomedicin ...

Deep learning approach for quantification of organelles and misfolded polypeptide delivery within degradative compartments

Maurizio Molinari

Endolysosomal compartments maintain cellular fitness by clearing dysfunctional organelles and proteins from cells. Modulation of their activity offers therapeutic opportunities. Quantification of cargo delivery to and/or accumulation within endolysosomes i ...

An Isoprene Lipid-Binding Protein Promotes Eukaryotic Coenzyme Q Biosynthesis

Matteo Dal Peraro, Deniz Aydin

The biosynthesis of coenzyme Q presents a paradigm for how cells surmount hydrophobic barriers in lipid biology. In eukaryotes, CoQ precursors-among nature's most hydrophobic molecules-must somehow be presented to a series of enzymes peripherally associate ...

Foldable aircraft with protective cage for transportation and transportability

Dario Floreano, Stefano Mintchev, Przemyslaw Mariusz Kornatowski

An aerial vehicle, configured to transport cargo, and including a propulsion system and a foldable cage is described. The foldable cage is substantially linear while in a folded configuration, and substantially circular while in a deployed configuration. M ...

Wave-reducing Stern Flap on Ship Convoys to Protect Riverbanks

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Michael Pfister, Robin Amacher, Théodora Cohen Liechti

Inland navigable waterways are significant in cargo transport and leisure activities. In parallel, these channels and rivers often suffer from the ship traffic, as the generated waves may damage waterway banks, along with their riparian fauna. As a consequ ...

Exact and Heuristic Methods to Solve the Berth Allocation Problem in Bulk Ports

Michel Bierlaire, Ilaria Vacca, Nitish Umang

In this paper, we study the dynamic hybrid berth allocation problem in bulk ports with the objective to minimize the total service times of the vessels. We propose two exact methods based on mixed integer progra mming and generalized set partitionin g, and ...

Detection of Aircrafts on a Collision Course using Spatio-Temporal HOG

Pascal Fua, Vincent Lepetit, Artem Rozantsev, Christos Marios Christoudias

We have developed a method for the detection of both generic flight neighbouring aircrafts and those on a collision course. Our approach employs a sliding window linear Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier with a Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) fe ...

Vesicle Photonics

Demetri Psaltis, Sylvie Roke, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Andreas Vasdekis

Amphiphiles, under appropriate conditions, can self-assemble into nanoscale thin membrane vessels (vesicles) that encapsulate and hence protect and transportmolecular payloads.Vesicles assemble naturally within cells but can also be artificially synthesize ...

Magnetic helical micromachines: Fabrication, controlled swimming, and cargo transport

Lei Zhang

A simple and general fabrication method for helical swimming micromachines by direct laser writing and e-beam evaporation is demonstrated. The magnetic helical devices exhibit varying magnetic shape anisotropy, yet always generate corkscrew motion using a ...

Human-wheelchair collaboration through prediction of intention and adaptive assistance

Tom Edward Carlson

Powered wheelchair users want to be active drivers, not just passengers. However, in some situations (varying from person to person), they may require assistance; hence, research is being carried out into the development of 'smart' wheelchairs. Predominant ...
