Sestrin2 suppression aggravates oxidative stress and apoptosis in endothelial cells subjected to pharmacologically induced endoplasmic reticulum stress by Munazza T. Fatima (17280679)

“…We investigated here, for the first time, the impact of SESN2 suppression on oxidative stress and cell survival in human endothelial cells subjected to pharmacologically (thapsigargin)-induced ER stress and studied the underlying cellular pathways. …”

Operation optimization of propane pre-cooled mixed refrigerant LNG Process: A novel integration of knowledge-based and constrained Bayesian optimization approaches by Roba Shady (22048043)

“…However, the liquefaction process is the highest energy-intensive stage within its supply chain as it consumes about 8 % of the LNG energy content. Thus, for the first time, this study proposes systematic knowledge-based and constrained Bayesian optimization approaches to identify the optimal operation of the C3MR process. …”

Excess pCO2 and carbonate system geochemistry in surface seawater of the exclusive economic zone of Qatar (Arabian Gulf) by Connor, Izumi
