Calving of icebergs is a major negative REPAIR SPRAY component of polar ice-sheet mass balance.Here we present a new calving model relying on both continuum damage mechanics and linear elastic fracture mechanics.This combination accounts for both the slow sub-critical surface crevassing and the rapid propagation of crevasses when calving occurs.Fir
Dictyostelium amoebae faced with starvation trigger a developmental program during which many cells aggregate and form fruiting bodies that consist of a ball of spores held aloft by a thin stalk.This developmental strategy Nail Lacquer is open to several forms of exploitation, including the remarkable case of Dictyostelium caveatum, which, even whe
Introduction.Mycosis fungoides (MF) is a form of primary cutaneous T-cell lymphomas, and radiotherapy (RT) has been used to treat localized/limited lesions of MF.In this case report, the results of low-dose RT applied for palliative purpose are shared.Case Report.A 70-year-old Hair male patient was admitted to the outpatient clinic 7 months ago wit
Optical-resolution photoacoustic microscopy offers high-resolution, label-free hemodynamic and functional imaging to many biomedical applications.However, long-standing technical barriers, such as limited field of view, bulky scanning probes, and slow imaging speed, have limited the application of optical-resolution photoacoustic microscopy.Here, B
Understanding the fundamental characteristics of microbial communities could have far reaching implications for human health and applied biotechnology.Despite this, much is still unknown regarding the genetic basis and evolutionary strategies underlying the formation of viable synthetic communities.By pairing auxotrophic mutants in co-culture, it h
