Dry blood spot samples to monitor immune-associated mRNA expression in intervention studies: Impact of Baker's yeast beta glucan (open access)

Dry blood spot samples to monitor immune-associated mRNA expression in intervention studies: Impact of Baker's yeast beta glucan

Article describes how monitoring immunological response to physical stressors in a field setting is challenging because existing methods require a laboratory visit and traditional blood collection via venipuncture. The purpose of this study was to determine if our optimized dry blood spot (DBS) methodology yields sufficient total RNA to quantify the effect of Baker's Yeast Beta Glucan supplementation on post-exercise mRNA expression.

Shared metadata for data-centric materials science (open access)

Shared metadata for data-centric materials science

Article describes how the expansive production of data in materials science, their widespread sharing and repurposing requires educated support and stewardship. The authors mainly focus on computational materials-science data and propose a constructive approach for the FAIRification of the (meta)data related to ground-state and excited-states calculations, potential-energy sampling, and generalized workflows.

Silicon supply promotes differences in growth and C:N:P stoichiometry between bamboo and tree saplings (open access)

Silicon supply promotes differences in growth and C:N:P stoichiometry between bamboo and tree saplings

Article describes how silicon can be important for the growth, functioning, and stoichiometric regulation of nutrients for high-Si-accumulating bamboo. The authors demonstrated that silicon supply can decrease the ratio of C:Si in bamboo leaves and increase the ratio of N:P without altering nutrient status or the N:P ratio of tree spalings.

Complexity Synchronization of Organ Networks (open access)

Complexity Synchronization of Organ Networks

Article describes how the transdisciplinary nature of science as a whole became evident as the necessity for the complex nature of phenomena to explain social and life science, along with the physical sciences, blossomed into complexity theory and most recently into complexitysynchronization. The authors use the scaling of empirical datasets from the brain, cardiovascular and respiratory networks to support the hypothesis that complexity synchronization occurs between scaling indices or equivalently with the matching of the time dependencies of the networks' multifractal dimensions.

Duals of Tirilman spaces have unique subsymmetric basic sequences (open access)

Duals of Tirilman spaces have unique subsymmetric basic sequences

Article describes how the Tirilman spaces were introduced by Casazza and Shura as variations of the spaces constructed by Tzafriri. We prove that all subsymmetric basic sequences in the dual space are equivalent to its canonical subsymmetic but not symmetric basis.

Functional Carbon Capsules Supporting Ruthenium Nanoclusters for Efficient Electrocatalytic 99TcO4-/ReO4 Removal from Acidic and Alkaline Nuclear Wastes (open access)

Functional Carbon Capsules Supporting Ruthenium Nanoclusters for Efficient Electrocatalytic 99TcO4-/ReO4 Removal from Acidic and Alkaline Nuclear Wastes

Article describes how the selective removal of the β-emitting pertechnetate ion (99TcO4−) from nuclear waste streams is technically challenging. In this article, a practical approach is proposed for the selective removal of 99TcO4− (or its surrogate ReO4−) under extreme conditions of high acidity, alkalinity, ionic strength, and radiation field.

Approximation Theory and Complex Dynamics (open access)

Approximation Theory and Complex Dynamics

Data management plan for the grant, "Approximation Theory and Complex Dynamics." This project involves the study of approximation theory in the setting of complex functions, with applications to complex dynamics. Approximation theory seeks to understand the extent to which the behavior of a general function can be effectively modeled by that of functions drawn from a more restricted class. Efficient approximation of functions is of relevance for numerical calculation. Since the only calculations that can be carried out numerically are the elementary operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, in practical terms it is of importance to understand when the values of general functions are well approximated by the values of either polynomial or rational functions. In many situations, the values of the approximant resemble those of the general function only for a sampling of input values. What can be said about values of the approximant for other choices of input? This is the main question studied in this project, with the following application in mind: when a general function is iterated to produce a dynamical system, to what extent does the dynamical behavior of an approximant resemble the dynamical behavior of the original function? The project will also contribute …
