Do new synapses form in the adult cortex to support experience-dependent plasticity? To
address this question, we repeatedly imaged individual pyramidal neurons in the mouse barrel …

We consider the problem of embedding one signal (eg, a digital watermark), within another "host"
signal to form a third, "composite" signal. The embedding is designed to achieve …

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are an emerging class of mixtures characterized by significant
depressions in melting points compared to those of the neat constituent components. …

Estimates of biological age based on DNA methylation patterns, often referred to as “epigenetic
age”,“DNAm age”, have been shown to be robust biomarkers of age in humans. We …

Identifying reliable biomarkers of aging is a major goal in geroscience. While the first
generation of epigenetic biomarkers of aging were developed using chronological age as a …

Do changes in neuronal structure underlie cortical plasticity 1 , 2 ? Here we used time-lapse
two-photon microscopy 3 , 4 of pyramidal neurons in layer 2/3 of developing rat barrel cortex …

Background DNA methylation levels change with age. Recent studies have identified
biomarkers of chronological age based on DNA methylation levels. It is not yet known whether …

Alternative splicing of Dscam generates an enormous molecular diversity with maximally
38,016 different receptors. Whether this large diversity is required in vivo is currently unclear. …

Background: The incidence of surgical site infection (SSI) across surgical procedures,
specialties, and conditions is reported to vary from 0.1% to 50%. Operative duration is often cited …

Behavioral and lifestyle factors have been shown to relate to a number of health-related
outcomes, yet there is a need for studies that examine their relationship to molecular aging rates…
