ZEBRAFISH AS AN ANIMAL MODEL FOR TESTING AGENTS WITH ANTIDEPRESSANT POTENTIAL



Design and Characterization of Microscale Auxetic and Anisotropic Structures Fabricated by Multiphoton Lithography

The need for control of the elastic properties of architected materials has been accentuated due to the advances in modelling and characterization.Among the plethora of unconventional mechanical responses, controlled anisotropy and auxeticity have been promulgated as a new avenue in bioengineering applications.This paper aims to delineate the mecha

Photobiomodulation of human dermal fibroblasts in vitro: decisive role of cell culture conditions and treatment protocols on experimental outcome

Abstract Photobiomodulation-based (LLLT) therapies show tantalizing promise for treatment of skin diseases.Confidence in this approach pedal plate is blighted however by lamentable inconsistency in published experimental designs, and so complicates interpretation.Here we interrogate the appropriateness of a range of previously-reported treatment pa

A Literature Synthesis of Actions to Tackle Illegal Parrot Trade

The order Psittaciformes is one of the most prevalent groups in the illegal wildlife trade.Efforts to understand this threat have focused on describing the elements of the trade itself: actors, extraction rates, and routes.However, the development of policy-oriented interventions also requires an understanding of how research aims and actions are d
