Biological systems assemble living materials that are autonomously patterned, can self-repair
and can sense and respond to their environment. The field of engineered living materials …

Synthetic biology is an emerging engineering disciple, which designs and controls biological
systems for creation of materials, biosensors, biocomputing, and much more. To better …

Outbreaks of cholera, a rapidly fatal diarrheal disease, often spread explosively. The efficacy
of reactive vaccination campaigns—deploying Vibrio cholerae vaccines during epidemics—…

Influenza A viruses (IAVs) in swine can cause sporadic infections and pandemic outbreaks
among humans, but how avian IAV emerges in swine is still unclear. Unlike domestic swine, …

Non–small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) harbor thousands of passenger events that hide
genetic drivers. Even highly recurrent events in NSCLC, such as mutations in PTEN, EGFR, …

… Long before he mounted the rostrum to deliver “The American Negro,” Paul Brandon Barringer
had combined his deep southern roots with his training in scientific medicine to become …

… For the literature on these two laws, see Dorr, "Segregation's Science," Chapters 5 and 6;

Wild aquatic birds maintain a large, genetically diverse pool of influenza A viruses (IAVs),
which can be transmitted to lower mammals and, ultimately, humans. Through phenotypic …

Background Contemporary total hip arthroplasty (THA) employs larger femoral heads to
optimize hip stability. However, the combination of large femoral heads and comparatively small …

Genetic reassortment between influenza A viruses (IAVs) facilitate emergence of pandemic
strains, and swine are proposed as a “mixing vessel” for generating reassortants of avian …
