“…We performed a sleep study on Tg-SwDI mice, a cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) model, and age-matched wild-type (WT) control mice. The results showed that at 12 months of age, the hemizygous Tg-SwDI mice spent significantly more time in non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep (44.6 ± 2.4% in Tg-SwDI versus 35.9 ± 2.5% in WT) and had a much shorter average length of wake bout during the dark (active) phase (148.5 ± 8.7 s in the Tg-SwDI versus 203.6 ± 13.0 s in WT). …”

Data_Sheet_1_Mechanical Determinants of the U-Shaped Speed-Energy Cost of Running Relationship.docx by Apolline Carrard (6093833)

Nanocomposite Grafted Stretchable and Conductive Ionic Hydrogels for Use as Soft Electrode in a Wearable Electrocardiogram Monitoring Device by Subhankar Mandal (8215980)

“…The UTS of hydrogels was dependent on the size of Ag NP in PAHz–Ag NCs, and the value increased from 0.70 to 1.14 MPa with the decrease in Ag NP size from ∼40 to 5 nm. The hydrogel samples exhibited adequate skin adhesiveness (tack adhesive strength ≈10.8 kPa), conductivity (50.5 mS/cm), and strain sensing ability (gauge factor ≈0.9), suggesting these samples are potentially useful for various soft electronics applications. …”
