0D-1D hybrid silicon nanocomposite as lithium-ion batteries anodes
(2020)Lithium ion batteries (LIBs) are the enabling technology for many of the societal changes that are expected to happen in the following years. Among all the challenges for which LIBs are the key, vehicle electrification is ... -
1.3 μm wavelength tunable single-mode laser arrays based on slots
(2021)Two twelve-channel arrays based on surface-etched slot gratings, one with non-uniformly spaced slots and another with uniformly spaced slots are presented for laser operation in the O-band. A wavelength tuning range greater ... -
1/f noise in MgO double-barrier magnetic tunnel junctions
(2011)Low frequency noise has been investigated in MgO double-barrier magnetic tunnel junctions (DMTJs) with tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) ratios up to 250% at room temperature. The noise shows a 1/f frequency spectrum and ... -
[2 + 2 + 2] cyclotrimerisation as a convenient route to 6N-doped nanographenes: A synthetic introduction to hexaazasuperbenzenes
(2017)6N-containing polyphenylene precursors were generated via [2 + 2 + 2] cyclotrimerisation. On methoxy substitution complete ring-closure can be achieved (via FeCl3-mediated oxidative cyclodehydrogenation) to give asymmetric ... -
3D printing of fibre-reinforced cartilaginous templates for the regeneration of osteochondral defects
(2020)Successful osteochondral defect repair requires regenerating the subchondral bone whilst simultaneously promoting the development of an overlying layer of articular cartilage that is resistant to vascularization and ... -
The 4-pyridonyl group as a multifunctional electron donor in 1,8-naphthalimide-based photoluminescent and mechanically interlocked coordination compounds
(2018)A new ligand system incorporating the 4-pyridonyl group as a substituent in 1,8-naphthalimide compounds is presented, with the pyridone group acting as both an electron donor for the internal charge transfer (ICT) fluorescence ... -
850 nm GaAs/AlGaAs DFB lasers with shallow surface gratings and oxide aperture
(2019)We present and experimentally demonstrate a novel oxide-confined ridge-waveguide distributed feedback (DFB) laser with the first-order surface grating using only a single growth step. The metal contacts are laterally offset ... -
AAV-PHP.eB transduces both the inner and outer retina with high efficacy in mice
(2022)Recombinant adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors are one of the main gene delivery vehicles used in retinal gene therapy ap proaches; however, there is a need to further improve the effi cacy, tropism, and safety of these ... -
Ad hoc innovation: distributed decision making in ad hoc networks
(IEEE, 2006)Mobile ad hoc networks by their nature are highly adaptive systems that can come into existence on an as needed basis. They can grow, reduce in size, fragment, and dismantle as desired. The dynamic and very flexible nature ... -
Ad hoc Networking, Markov Random Fields, and Decision Making
(2006)Our central proposition is that by articulating decision making in an ad hoc network using a Markov random field (MRF) maximum a posteriori (MAP) approach, a viable decision- making framework can be designed. This ... -
Adaptive Retrieval and Composition of Socio-Semantic Content for Personalised Customer Care
(CEUR-WS.org, 2010)The parallel rise of the Semantic and Social Web provides unprecedented possibilities for the development of novel search system architectures. However, many traditional search systems have so far followed a simple ... -
Adaptive semantic interoperability strategies for knowledge based networking
(2007)A Knowledge Based Network is a type of ontological content based network. As Knowledge Based Networks scale, semantic interoperability becomes an important issue since larger populations of users result in more heterogeneity ... -

Adaptive Semantic Interoperability Strategies for Knowledge Based Networking
(2009)Knowledge-based networking involves the forwarding of messages across a network based on semantics of the data and associated metadata of the message content. However such systems typically assume a common semantic model ... -
Addition of a Viral Immunomodulatory Domain to Etanercept Generates a Bifunctional Chemokine and TNF Inhibitor
(2020)The inhibition of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) through the use of either antibodies or soluble receptors is a highly effective strategy for the clinical control of chronic inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis. ... -
Additions, losses, and rearrangements on the evolutionary route from a reconstructed ancestor to the modern Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome.
(PLoS, 2009)Comparative genomics can be used to infer the history of genomic rearrangements that occurred during the evolution of a species. We used the principle of parsimony, applied to aligned synteny blocks from 11 yeast species, ... -
Additive Manufacturing of Ti3C2-MXene-Functionalized Conductive Polymer Hydrogels for Electromagnetic-Interference Shielding
(2021)The ongoing miniaturization of devices and development of wireless and implantable technologies demand electromagnetic interference (EMI)shielding materials with customizability. Additive manufacturing of conductive ... -
Adenylate cycalse toxin of Bordetella pertussis inhibits TLR-induced IRF-1 and IRF-8 activation and IL-12 production and enhances IL-10 through MAPK activation in dendritic cells
(Society of Leukocyte Biology, 2008)Adenylate cyclase toxin (CyaA) of Bordetella pertussis binds to CD11b/CD18 on macrophages and dendritic cells (DC) and confers virulence to the bacteria by subverting innate immune responses of the host. We have previously ... -
Adenylate cyclase toxin from Bordetella pertussis synergises with lipopolysaccharide to promote innate IL-10 production and enhance the induction of Th2 and regulatory T cells
(American Society for Microbiology, 2004)Adenylate cyclase toxin (CyaA) from Bordetella pertussis can subvert host immune responses allowing bacterial colonization. Here we have examined its adjuvant and immunomodulatory properties and the possible contribution ... -
