Video_1_Comparison of the Mechanical Properties Between the Convex and Concave Inner/Apical Surfaces of the Developing Cerebrum.MOV by Arata Nagasaka (5125871)

“…Thus, one plausible explanation for the observed difference (pallium > GE) in apical surface stiffness may be differential densification of NPC apices. In laser ablation onto the apical surface, the convex-shaped GE apical surface showed quicker recoils of edges than the pallial apical surface did, with a milder inhibition of recoiling by blebbistatin than in pallium. …”

Expansion models of the CTG repeat expansion in blood and saliva. by Eyleen Corrales (6659279)

“…Data from this study suggests that in saliva (lower model), the rate of expansion/contractions is different than in blood, triggering a faster movement of the lower boundary, a more compact allele distribution and faster progression to a normal distribution than in blood and with larger modal allele length in saliva with time. …”
