We report on the realization of a biomimetic MEMS speaker inspired by field crickets.This speaker is at least five times thinner and four times more efficient than the current dynamic Mini Helmet speakers used in portable electronics.We present results of the acoustic characterization of a single MEMS speaker.Computational extrapolation of the resu
Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks third among the most frequent malignancies and represents the second most common cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide.By interfering with the DNA replication process of cancer cells, several chemotherapeutic molecules used in CRC therapy induce replication stress (RS).At the cellular level, this stress is
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major human pathogen that requires a better understanding of its interaction with host cells.There is a close association of HCV life cycle with host lipid metabolism.Lipid droplets (LDs) have been found to be crucial organelles that support PROST-FORCE HCV replication and virion assembly.In addition to their role in re
Modern prosthetics largely relies upon visual data processing and NAC implementation technologies such as 3D scanning, mathematical modeling, computer-aided design (CAD) tools, and 3D-printing during all stages from design to fabrication.Despite the intensive advancement of these technologies, once the prosthetic socket model is obtained by 3D scan
