Mouse Models of Human Gastric Cancer Subtypes With Stomach-Specific CreERT2-Mediated Pathway Alterations
Background & Aims: Patterns of genetic alterations characterize different molecular subtypes of human gastric cancer. We aimed to establish mouse models of these subtypes. Methods: We searched databases to identify genes with unique expression in the stomach epithelium, resulting in the identification of Anxa10. We gen...

Ultra Low Leakage Synaptic Scaling Circuits For Implementing Homeostatic Plasticity In Neuromorphic Architectures
Homeostatic plasticity is a property of biological neural circuits that stabilizes their neuronal firing rates in face of input changes or environmental variations. Synaptic scaling is a particular homeostatic mechanism that acts at the level of the single neuron over long time scales, by changing the gain of all its a...

It is now possible to make an enormous spectrum of different, novel nanoporous materials simply by changing the building blocks in the synthesis of Metal Organic Frameworks (MOF) or related materials. This unique chemical tunability allows us to tailor-make materials that are optimal for a given application. The promis...

WALKER HAVING AUTOMATICALLY ACTIVATED PROTECTIVE DYNAMIC PADDING
A walking aid (100, 200) has been configured with static padding (112) and air bags (114) to protect the user in case of a fall. The air bags (114) are generally not deployed. However, the walking aid has a tilt sensor (128) which, when a fall is detected, triggers air bag ignitors (116). In one embodiment, the tilt se...
