Novel Experimental and Analysis Paradigms for Neuroimaging
(2017-07-25)
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) technique uses the blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) contrast to detect associated changes in blood flow. The BOLD signal is temporal correlated with cerebral electrophysiological ...
Novel experimental technique to confirm fish hosts for “large river mussels”
(2014-07-02)
Unionid mussels are declining in North America. The larval stage (glochidium) represents a life-history bottleneck because glochidia are parasitic and require an appropriate fish host. However, appropriate fish host species ...
Novel Fault Injection Attacks on Logic Locking using ATPG
(2020-07-31)
The outsourcing of the design and manufacturing of integrated circuits (ICs) in the current horizontal semiconductor integration flow includes untrusted entities that have posed various security threats, such as overproduction ...
A novel finite element discretization of domains with spheroidal geometry
(2007-05-15)
We describe and analyze a new finite element discretizations for domains with spheroidal
geometry. In particular, we describe how the method can be used to approximate solutions
as well as eigenvalues and eigenfunctions ...
A Novel Halogenation Protocol and Non-heme Iron Hydroxylase Mimics as Catalysts for C-H Oxidation and O2 Activation
(2012-08-03)
Hydrocarbons react with molar concentrations of peracetic acid and halide salts to yield predominantly monohalogenated products under optimum conditions, with chlorination being more oxidatively efficient than bromination. ...
Novel Hydrogels from Renewable Resources
(2011-05-06)
The cell wall of most plant biomass from forest and agricultural resources consists of three major polymers, cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. Of these, hemicelluloses have gained increasing attention as sustainable raw ...
Novel Infectious Bronchitis Virus Vaccines and Immune Responses
(2019-11-25)
Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) occurs as multiple serotypes and genotypes worldwide. In the United States IBV belonging to the Arkansas (Ark) Delmarva Poultry Industry (DPI) genotype is the most frequently isolated ...
Novel Interface Trap Passivation and Channel Counter-doping for 4H-SiC MOSFETs
(2015-05-07)
4H-Silicon carbide (4H-SiC) is the most promising wide band gap semiconductor for next generation high power and high temperature metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs). However, the channel mobility ...
Novel Kidney Injury Biomarkers in Young Adults
(2021-08-09)
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a condition in which gradual kidney damage impairs its ability to filter blood. CKD has varying levels of severity and tends to become more common, and worsen, with advanced age. If left ...
Novel Lipid Nanoassemblies with Advanced Functionality: Design, Photosynthesis Mimicking and Self-Assembly
