Hydrogels Stabilized Via Novel Click Chemistry-Enabled Secondary Interactions for Cell Culture
(2020-04-13)
Hydrogels, water-imbibing crosslinked polymer networks, are useful for 3D cell culture because of their tissue-like mechanical properties and high water content. A variety of “click chemistry” reactions have been utilized ...
Ostracism, Belongingness, and Alcohol Use: Comparing Different Racial/Ethnic Groups
(2020-04-13)
Research has shown that perceived social exclusion, characterized by the feeling of ostracism, is considered a stressful event that produces a negative affect. Ostracism, defined as exclusion by general consent from common ...
Microscopic Origin of Nonlinear Optical Properties of 2D Materials: A First Principles Study
(2020-04-16)
Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have provided a unique materials platform with a variety of interesting optoelectronic properties and great potential for device applications. Janus 2D TMDCs ...
Clustering Events Based On Common Subevents
(2020-04-23)
The objective of this project is to create a methodology to find communities of similar events based on their context, which is represented by their subevents. The similarity is measured through a new metric we propose, ...
Characterization of the BMP2-Specific Regeneration Window in the Adult Mouse Middle Phalanx Model of Induced Bone Regeneration
(2020-04-20)
Mammalian regeneration capabilities are amputation-level-dependent; amputations of the terminal phalanx (P3) initiate regeneration mediated by a blastema, while amputations transecting more proximal levels of the digit ...
Determination of Electrostatic Charge Density and Adhesion Force of Particles on a Glass Surface Using an Electrostatic Detachment Method
(2020-04-16)
Attachment of particles to certain surfaces like glass plays a critical role in engineering and natural processes. An application can be found in the solar energy field as the accumulation of dust particles on the solar ...
Effects of Dental Media Hype On Patients' Perception of Treatment
(2020-04-09)
Living in the digital age has allowed patients to receive misguided information due to the rise of non-credible sources available to the public. Research has shown that up to 75% of people worldwide use the internet to ...
Tick-Borne Pathogens in Puerto Rican Livestock: A Molecular Approach
(2020-04-16)
Tick-borne pathogens (TBPs) are a significant source of health and economic burden in the Puerto Rican livestock industry. Previous research suggests that upwards of U.S. $6.7 million is lost annually to TBP related ...
Mental Health Help-Seeking Barriers for College Students: A Systematic Review
(2020-04-08)
Students who transition to college will often struggle with maintaining their mental health because of the significant changes occurring in their life. Many campuses across the country provide services to help students ...
Effects of Host/Graft Sex Mismatch on Neural Progenitor Grafts for Spinal Cord Injury
(2021-04-28)
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is an extremely devastating injury that can result in complete loss of all motor and sensory functions. Numerous studies have shown transplantation of neural progenitor cells (NPCs) has great promise ...
